Singh’s Draft Journey Amid Setbacks

Eighteen-year-old defenseman Rylan Singh is eyeing the 2026 NHL Draft despite a rocky season sidelined by injury and an appendectomy, which cut his games to just fifty-two. Though his NHL Central Scouting ranking dropped from 144th to 201st, he made a strong impression at the Connor McDavid OHL Top Prospects game with a goal and assist. His coach Cory Stillman praised his grit and passion, calling him a dedicated player who loves the game. Singh remains focused, eager to return to Guelph for the 2027 Memorial Cup and continue his journey toward the NHL — even if it means playing through the NCAA. He believes setbacks are temporary, and his potential is still very much alive. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
