Cole Koepke

Taken with the No. 183 overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, Koepke worked primarily in the minors for years before he enjoyed his first full campaign at the top level in 2024-25. He posted 10 goals, 17 points, 17 PIM, 85 shots, 177 hits and 26 blocks in 73 regular-season outings with the Bruins in 2024-25 while averaging 11:15 of ice time. Koepke will likely continue to serve in a bottom-six capacity in 2025-26 after inking a one-year deal with the Jets in the summer. The change of scenery is unlikely to impact Koepke’s value, so expect him to be a solid source of hits in 2025-26, but don’t pencil him in for more than 10-20 points.
