Team CHL’s roster for the 2025 CHL USA Prospects Challenge will be unveiled by the end of the month and with it, predictions on who will suit up in Calgary and Lethbridge are beginning to roll in.
Daily Faceoff’s Steven Ellis recently took a stab at how Team CHL will line-up for the two-game series against the USNTDP and it features a plethora of high-end talent that includes the CHL’s leading point scorer JP Hurlbert (Kamloops/WHL) as well as a pair of former first overall picks in Ethan Belchetz (Windsor/OHL) and Daxon Rudolph (Prince Albert/WHL).
Recently, Ryan Lin (Vancouver/WHL), Ryan Roobroeck (Niagara/OHL) and Xavier Villeneuve (Blainville-Boisbriand/QMJHL) were already named to Team CHL’s roster.
