The final chapter of HIDDEN GEMS is here! 💎

Blake and Louis Boulet of LB-Hockey wrap up their four-part series with eight under-the-radar players from the Pacific Division who could make some serious fantasy noise in 2026-27.

We're digging beyond the box score to explore the underlying numbers, training-camp deployment, power-play opportunities and specific circumstances that could unlock each player's fantasy value.

This episode features:

🏒 Beckett Sennecke (ANA) — Elite transition ability and a potential sophomore explosion alongside Leo Carlsson.

🏒 Matvei Gridin (CGY) — A confident young scorer getting a legitimate top-six and PP1 opportunity.

🏒 Matt Savoie (EDM) — A strong finish to his rookie season, with an injury complicating his immediate breakout path.

🏒 Alex Laferriere (LAK) — An absolute category-league DAWG with 200+ shots, 250+ hits and outstanding scoring-chance generation.

🏒 Mason Marchment (SJS) — Could playing alongside Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith unlock another level offensively?

🏒 Mackie Samoskevich (SEA) — Excellent underlying shot and chance generation with a fresh opportunity in Seattle.

🏒 Marco Rossi (VAN) — A proven 60-point player looking to bounce back after an injury-plagued season.

🏒 Braeden Bowman (VGK) — A young forward with organizational support and an opportunity to establish a larger role in Vegas.

These aren't all players you need to draft today. They're players you need to know before the opportunity arrives.

Eight teams. Eight Hidden Gems. The Pacific Division.
