Kraken Prospects: Berkly Catton, the No. 8 overall pick in the 2024 NHL draft is turning heads this season.

By Krishna Bhagnathsingh

Kraken prospect Berkly Catton is tearing it up for the Spokane Chiefs, averaging more than two points per game. He’s already surpassed 100 points on the season and ranks third overall in WHL scoring – although he’s just second on the Chiefs, behind Washington Capitals prospect Andrew Cristall.

Catton’s ability to dangle a defender and his lightning-fast shot will one day provide the Kraken with a much-needed sniper. Look for Catton to make a push for full-time NHL duty by the 2026-27 season, at which time he could claim a spot in the top six.

Catton's performance was a recent topic of discussion on this week's The Wrap Around.
