With the T25 fully underway, we revealed 22 through 18.

Official Vote

2026 T25U25: Patriks Plumins is #22
The first goalie to make an appearance in our rankings is one of the new guys.
2026 T25U25: Landon Sim is #21
He’s fun. And he knows that’s his ticket to greater things.
2026 T25U25: Yaroslav Fedoseyev is #20
A draft steal makes the list in his first year.
2026 T25U25: Noah Chadwick is #19
Making the jump to pro hockey is hard.
2026 T25U25: Zac Olsen is #18
Or Zach, you decide.

Patriks Plumins at 22nd had a weighted average ranking of 21.64 the next three crept up by small amounts, less than half a point to Noah Chadwick at 20.73, and then the biggest jump on the list occurred with Zach (or Zac, the internet is divided on this) Olsen at 18.27, 2.45 ranking points higher and giving him a weighted ranking almost right on his ranking.

What that means is that everyone from 19 on down to 30th place fit in between 20 and 25 in weighted ranking, so they could be considered a large bottom tier of players. Olsen is clearly being taken more seriously by those who voted for him. Not everyone did, and we are yet to have the first unanimous ranking, that comes next week.

Community Vote

Borya Valis at #22

With an average ranking of 21.19, Valis is a full point above your 23rd ranked player. He came it at 26 on the official list.

That's a consensus that he should be ranked, but low.

Zac Olsen at #21

Almost tied with Valis, he's not the player marking a new trend in voting on your list.

This might be a split vote as it appears, or it's noise since Olsen's original place as a young prospect is at the end of the list.

Landon Sim at #20

With an average 1.7 points higher, Sim is actually where your average ranking starts to line up with the actual ranking place.

A very firm consensus vote.

Måns Gudnundsson at #19

Not yet revealed on the Official Vote, you ranked this new defender at a virtual tie with Sim.

Note the y-axis is high to accommodate the number of voters who left him where he started, as the last name and youngest player on the list.

Harry Nansi at #18

Your vote jumps Nansi up to close to his ranking place with an average of 18.85, and is a clear higher choice than the two below him. Also not yet revealed on the Official Vote.

Note the y-axis, now showing the strongest consensus vote so far with the fewest N/A votes and the least amount of noise around his original place.

And that's all for today. The lists are starting to align more with one surprise difference to be revealed next weekend.
