2026-27 Anaheim Ducks Top Prospects: 16-20

However, in an offseason that saw the loss of several roster pieces, including the entire right side of their blueline ( Jacob Trouba , John Carlson , Radko Gudas ) and two young, talented pieces ( Mason McTavish , Olen Zellweger ), the Ducks ' prospect pool got exponentially deeper and more potent.

With a core firmly in place and playing roles at the top of the lineup, the Ducks will need several of the next 20 names to gradually fill out the depth chart behind said core for the next few years to maximize and elongate their contending window.

Author's Note: To qualify for this list, players must be rookie-eligible in 2026-27. Unfortunately, that disqualifies Tristan Luneau from this particular exercise.
