Ahead of the official unveiling of Team CHL for the 2025 CHL USA Prospects Challenge, Elite Prospects have taken a crack at what their roster may look like.
After a two-game sweep last year, Team CHL will look to continue its winning streak in Alberta this year and if they do so, Elite Prospects thinks a number of top talent will be part of that that includes a potential top line of Ryan Roobroeck (Niagara/OHL), Ethan Belchetz (Windsor/OHL) and Mathis Preston (Spokane/WHL).
To garner their predicted roster, Elite Prospects conducted a team-wide poll that involved 18 members of its scouting team who submitted individual ballots where the results were tallied from there.
Recently, Roobroeck, Ryan Lin (Vancouver/WHL) and Xavier Villeneuve (Blainville-Boisbriand/QMJHL) were already named to Team CHL’s roster.
