Lucas Nutting OHL Draft Profile
The Firebirds used their second round pick, number 33 overall, in the 2025 OHL Priority Selection on defenseman Lucas Nutting of the Elgin Middlesex Canucks U16 AAA of the Alliance U16.
SCOUTING REPORT FROM OHL CENTRAL SCOUTING:
Lucas is an offensive minded defenseman that isn’t afraid to join the rush or even lead it if the opportunity arises. He is a smooth and effortless skater that has very good mobility in all directions. He is able to beat a forechecker with his feet and if he can’t then he sees the ice well enough to make very good breakout and outlet passes. He loves to have the puck on his stick and will challenge players all over the ice with it. He does a great job quarterbacking the power play and distributes the puck well from the top. He possesses a good shot that will get better as he gets stronger.
