Williams is off to a hot start on the score sheet, but how does he look outside of the points?
PPP Leafs evaluated Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Cooper Williams following a strong start to his WHL draft-plus-one season with Saskatoon. Selected 158th overall in the fifth round of the NHL draft, Williams recorded 4 goals and 12 points through his first seven games, placing him tied for third across the league in scoring.
While the writer praised Williams' defensive intelligence, anticipation, and net-front finishing, they noted lingering concerns regarding his physical strength, skating speed, and translation to the professional level. The outlet projected Williams' offensive pace would normalize later in the season.
