|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jett Luchanko | - | RW | 17 | 3 of 3 | A+
L2
| Luchanko finished his year on a high note winning gold for Team Canada's U18 team in Finland. Used in all situations. Played with pace and detail. Took key defensive zone face-offs on his strong side. Combination of speed, skill, compete, and perhaps most importantly smarts. Averaged over a point per game in Guelph (68GP - 20G - 54A) Chipped in with 2G-5A - 7pts in seven games at the Worlds Leans complete player / top six NHL forward Not elite in any one category but excellent all around player who contributes better than secondary offense without sacrificing three zone detail Compares to Nick Suzuki in many categories | May 2, 2024 | May 6, 2024 |
| Berkly Catton | - | C | 18 | 3 of 3 | A+
L2
| Catton is a dynamic offensive forward who produced 54G - 62A for Spokane in the regular season. His defensive commitment has improved along side his outstanding offensive element. Catton is deployed in all situations for the Chiefs. He finished regular season (+15) defensively. Hard to check. Elusive. Slips off checks to create offense. Average plus three zone detail. A difference maker offensively. Easily projects to be a top six NHL forward - potentially a top line scorer who's primary ice time comes at even strength and the power-play. | Mar. 29, 2024 | May 6, 2024 |
| Tij Iginla | - | LW | 17 | 3 of 3 | A+
L1
| Iginla is riding a wave of momentum heading towards the entry draft. Fantastic regular season - followed up with high impact playoff production for Kelowna in the WHL - 11GP - 9G - 6A - 15pts - Deployed in all situations Speed off the rush and small area quickness has gone to another level in the back half of the season. Relentless compete - Elite release - Makes plays in traffic / extends in small area battles Top line NHL upside - Plays the game the right way - Trustworthy 200ft - Not just offense | Apr. 26, 2024 | Apr. 27, 2024 |
| Jett Luchanko | - | RW | 17 | 2 of 3 | A+
L2
| With Team Canada at the U18 World Championships Luchanko is being used in a variety of roles Takes key defensive zone face-offs on his strong side Majority of his ice time comes at ES and PK Playing fast - detailed - competitive in all three zones Not elite offensively but much better than secondary upside His hockey sense allows coaching staff to trust him with whatever task they ask Reminds of Nick Suzuki in a lot of categories. | Apr. 26, 2024 | Apr. 27, 2024 |
| Gavin McKenna | - | LW | 16 | 1 of 1 | A+
FP
| Elite 'double under age' prospect who isn't eligible for the NHL draft until 2026 Play driver Elusive Plays fast - explodes through the neutral zone with the puck on his stick Deceptive release - has the ability to almost 'hide' the puck before directing on net Competes - Pushes through checks - Elite / Franchise Player on the horizon | Apr. 26, 2024 | Apr. 27, 2024 |
| Carter George | - | G | 17 | 1 of 1 | A+
1B
| George is the second rated goalie for North America from NHL Central Scouting. He battled through some growing pains, at times, this year playing for Owen Sound in the OHL. Athletic. Battles. Good feet. Quick pads. Rebound control can range at times, but he's working to eat pucks from distance. Lateral push is strong. Has the leg strength, read/react/push, to get across and make saves on the back side post. Competes. Never quits on the play. Fronts the puck well. This draft cycle doesn't have many high-end goalies to chose from. George has the net in Owen Sound as the starter, and two years of development ahead of him after he's drafted this June. His foundation is strong. Should be one of the first goalies selected in Vegas. | Apr. 26, 2024 | Apr. 27, 2024 |
| James Hagens | - | C | 17 | 3 of 3 | A+
L1
| Playing to his strengths / identity to start the U18 Worlds in Finland. Ended with 2G-2A vs Slovakia in USA's 9-0 victory and player of the game honors. Top end skill. Plays with pace. Play maker / Play Driver. Especially dangerous on the power-play. Always in motion. Very difficult to defend. Average plus defensively - which is good enough considering everything else he brings to the dance. Potential #1 overall in 2025. | Apr. 25, 2024 | Apr. 26, 2024 |
| Igor Shesterkin |  | G | 28 | 2 of 2 | 92
1A
| Shesterkin benefited from being pushed by back up goalie Jonathan Quick this season - especially allowing him to ramp up his game, overall, as the year rolled along. Top tier NHL starter. Not huge in the net but plenty athletic. Athletic. Tracks very well. Moves laterally quickly. Provides the Rangers the kind of goaltending that could contribute to a deep playoff run. Season stats - 2.58 GAA - .912 save percentage Last ten game segment to end regular season - 7W - 3L - .911% / 2.56 GAA | Apr. 15, 2024 | Apr. 20, 2024 |
| Juuse Saros |  | G | 28 | 3 of 3 | 91
1A
| Saros came on in the second half of the season - giving the Preds the high end goaltending they have come to expect. Stocky. Athletic. Fantastic lateral quickness / quick feet / pads. Ability to steal a game on any given night. Size is a factor when teams 'clog' the front of his net and take away his 'eyes' but he battles hard to make saves. As noted - his season was much improved overall in the second half compared to the first - but his last ten game segment resulted in a 6-3-0-1 record - .897 % / 3.22 GAA He will need to be the Preds best player in playoffs. | Apr. 15, 2024 | Apr. 20, 2024 |
| Jake Oettinger |  | G | 25 | 2 of 2 | 92
1A
| Dallas is a Stanley Cup contending team and Oettinger gives the team confidence between the pipes. Big body. Tracks very well. Squares up. Rarely too active in his crease. Very good glove hand. His stature is key to making saves through bodies / screens / in traffic. Last ten game segment to end regular season was elite : 9 wins - 1 loss - .943 save % 1.49 GAA | Apr. 17, 2024 | Apr. 20, 2024 |
| Semyon Varlamov |  | G | 35 | 1 of 1 | 91
1B
| Varlamov is a big part of the reason the Islanders find themselves in the playoffs. He's generally played the part of #2A / #1B this season - but his last ten game segment has been outstanding 8-1-0-1 record .930 save percentage 2.09 GAA Especially impressive stats considering the Islanders have struggled to kill penalties all season long and have the worst PK % (71.5) in the entire NHL Veteran goalie - Athletic - Active - Competes - Ability to steal games on occasion - Riding a hot hand at the end of regular season 23/24 | Apr. 17, 2024 | Apr. 20, 2024 |
| Andrei Vasilevskiy |  | G | 29 | 1 of 1 | 90
1A
| Vasilevski is a proven 'big game' goalie who rises to the occasion more times than not at the hardest time of the year - playoffs His 23/24 season was shortened due to back surgery at the beginning of the season, but he still played 52 games - posting a 2.90 GAA and .900 save percentage His last ten game segment of the regular season resulted in a .909 save percentage and 2.65 GAA - he averaged 28.5 shots per game against and ended the segment with a 5-4-0-1 record. Huge in the net. Rangy. Flexible. Reacts to second chances around his crease efficiently. Has the athleticism to make desperation stops. Butterfly style. High end compete. Stanley Cup champion. | Apr. 17, 2024 | Apr. 20, 2024 |
| Sergei Bobrovsky |  | G | 35 | 3 of 3 | 91
1A
| Bobrovsky is the kind of goalie who can run hot and steal an entire series for a team. He proved it last season when he led the Panthers to the Stanley Cup Final. He was the best version of himself. Butterfly / Athletic goalie. Active. Rebound control ranges. When opponents get him moving side to side he tends to open up / end up on his chest / exposes top of net. His quickness and compete are elite. Never quits on a puck. Really tough to beat when he feels the puck early in games and makes a big save in the opening minutes of a game. Final ten game segment to end the regular season ranged. Ended with a 4-4-0-2 record / .900 save percentage / 2.64 GAA Averaged 26 shots on goal against. Florida needs him to win the goaltending battle versus Vasilevsky / Tampa Bay in round one. | Apr. 16, 2024 | Apr. 19, 2024 |
| Jeremy Swayman |  | G | 25 | 4 of 4 | 90
1B
| Swayman continues to platoon with Ullmark in Boston - BUT - heading into series versus Toronto in first round of 2024 playoffs he has a save percentage north of .950 and GAA below 1.40 versus the Leafs. He could be the goalie of choice in versus the Leafs. Boston has a very structured penalty killing unit. They ended the regular season with one of the top units in the entire league - killing off an average of 82.5% when a man short. Swayman's last ten game segment produced .904 save percentage - 2.50 GAA He faced, on average, 26.1 shots on goal per game. Good size. Athletic. Quick pads. Competes to make second saves. Engaged. Reliable. | Apr. 16, 2024 | Apr. 19, 2024 |
| Frederik Andersen |  | G | 34 | 2 of 2 | 90
1A
| Andersen returned to the Canes lineup in the late stages of the 23/24 season after battling through a blood clot issue. He's arguably in the best form of his career. In his last ten game segment, before playoffs, he faced 268 shots and stopped 255 His record was 9 - 1 - GAA was 1.30 - Save percentage .951 Big in the net - Butterfly style - Generally sound crease composure - rarely gets wandering too far outside his posts / outside the blue paint of his crease Rebound control is crucial to his success. Not a great second stop / scramble type goalie. Playing like a top tier #1A heading into playoffs for Carolina. Past results in playoffs have ranged. Needs only to be average plus to give the Canes a chance to win. | Apr. 16, 2024 | Apr. 19, 2024 |
| Thatcher Demko |  | G | 28 | 4 of 4 | 93
1A
| Demko returned from injury late in the season and looked rested and energetic to end the season. Impressive 23/24 season overall 51GP - 2.45 GAA - .917 save percentage Faced 1489 shots - 1366 saves - 123 goals against Big in the net. Can play deeper at times, but he's aggressive challenging shooters and fronting high danger scoring chances. Quick pads. High end compete. Always prepared. Top tier NHL starter. Vancouver's penalty kill has improved exponentially, year over year, and Demko is a big part of the reason why. | Apr. 16, 2024 | Apr. 19, 2024 |
| Connor Hellebuyck |  | G | 30 | 6 of 6 | 93
1A
| Excellent regular season for the Jets. 37-19-0-4 record - 2.39 GAA - .921 save percentage Heading into playoffs his last ten game segment produced a 5-4-0-1 record - BUT - riding a five game winning streak to end regular season .910 save percentage / 2.85 GAA in the segment Faced 300 shots - stopped 273 - allowed 27 goals 30 shots per game average was fourth highest among starting goalies heading into playoffs Huge in the net. At his best when NOT caught scrambling / over challenging shooters Generally plays deep in his net / allows puck to come to him / One of the top goalies in the entire league. Ability to steal a series. | Apr. 16, 2024 | Apr. 19, 2024 |
| Macklin Celebrini | - | C | 17 | 7 of 7 | A+
FP
| Celebrini ends his college season with 32G-38A in 38GP and becomes the youngest ever winner of the Hobey Baker Award as the top men's hockey player in the NCAA. Consensus #1 rated player for the 2024 NHL Entry Draft. Pro ready. Relentless competitor. Quick. Fast. High end skill. Top line talent who is the kind of prospect an organization can build their team around. Hockey IQ to be used in all situations if required. | Apr. 11, 2024 | Apr. 13, 2024 |
| Lane Hutson |  | LD | 20 | 6 of 6 | A+
P2
| At Boston University, especially in the second half of the 23/24 season, Hutson logged an incredible amount of ice time. Considering he was used sparingly on the penalty kill, his average TOI ranging from 22:00 - 26:00 per game is an outlier. Plays to a consistent identity. Dynamic playmaker. Sees the ice. Escapes pressure in small areas. Has the legs to lead zone exits on his own and attack off the rush. Extends plays in the offensive zone with his read/react/elite hockey sense. Leans distributor more than shooter - but always in motion looking for open space and prime shooting lanes to get pucks to the net on his own as well - Transitional NHL 'D' on the horizon - Power-Play quarterback List size is now up to 5'10 162 lbs. Average plus defender. Active stick. Gets 'inside and under' opponents sticks. Relentless compete. Never backs down. | Apr. 11, 2024 | Apr. 12, 2024 |
| Jacob Quillan |  | C | 22 | 2 of 2 | A+
L3
| Quillan finished 18th overall in NCAA scoring in 23/24. - 39GP - 17G - 29A (+17) 55.9% F/O Averaged over 20:00 TOI / All situations / In playoffs and NCAA tournament for Quinnipiac He's the kind of player who can be deployed in a variety of roles. Quillan plays quick and fast. He tracks up and down the entire 200ft. He scored several of his goals from between the hash marks in the middle of the offensive zone - and around the crease via tips and rebounds. A relentless competitor who extends plays along the boards and battles for positioning in the trenches. Doesn't cut corners defensively. Rotates very well on the PK and jumps to loose pucks quickly. No discernable holes in his game at the college level. Projects as a solid third line NHL forward who plays with detail and could provide better than secondary offence. | Mar. 29, 2024 | Apr. 2, 2024 |
| Zeev Buium | - | LD | 18 | 3 of 3 | A+
P1
| Buium has had a terrific freshman season at Denver. He also played on Team USA's gold medal winning world junior team in Sweden. Buium is extremely competitive. He plays fast. He works to defend his net and push back on opponents, but it's his elite offensive upside that makes him even more attractive as a prospect. Buium leads all NCAA defenceman with 11G-37A. He's in the top ten in overall NCAA scoring. As noted, Buium brings more than just offense. So far this season he's posted a tidy (+32) rating defensively. | Mar. 28, 2024 | Mar. 30, 2024 |
| Sam Dickinson | - | LD | 17 | 4 of 4 | A+
P1
| Dickinson logs a massive amount of ice time playing in London. He's deployed in all situations, but his primary ice time comes at even strength and the power-play. Dickinson is an effortless skater. He looks like he isn't pushing himself, to get from point 'A' to point 'B', at times but it speaks to the efficiency of his stride. Dickinson possesses high end offensive upside and the ability to quarterback the power-play. There are times he could provide more urgency, and detail, defensively but it's also not something to be overly concerned about / should improve as he matures. Dickinson produced 18G-52A in the regular season for the Knights. | Mar. 29, 2024 | Mar. 30, 2024 |
| Artyom Levshunov | - | RD | 18 | 4 of 4 | A+
P1
| Levshunov led the Spartans in scoring as a freshman defenceman. In thirty-six games, before the NCAA tournament, he produced 9G - 25A. Levshunov is a coveted right-shot defenceman. He's very active offensively, pinching down to extend plays and jumping into the rush every time he's identifies an opportunity. His defensive zone detail is a work in progress, but he has posted a (+26) rating so far this season. Projects as a top pairing / 2-way Transitional NHL 'D' | Mar. 29, 2024 | Mar. 30, 2024 |
| Ivan Demidov | - | RW | 18 | 3 of 3 | A+
L1
| Demidov's statistics jump off the page. He's scored 23G-37A in only 30GP. He's a creative offensive talent with a fantastic release and loads of creativity with the puck on his stick. He's too good to be playing at the junior level in Russia. He started the year in the KHL before an injury kept him on the shelf for a couple months, slowing his momentum at the pro level in the process and resulting in him landing in the junior ranks upon his return. Projects to be a top line NHL forward - Skilled - Fast - Competitive - | Mar. 26, 2024 | Mar. 30, 2024 |
| Macklin Celebrini | - | C | 17 | 6 of 7 | A+
FP

| Elite offensive talent. Transitional 'D' . Creative thinker. Impacts the game offensively almost every time he hits the ice. Produced an incredible 33G - 63A - 96pts in regular season for Saginaw Light / area defender - average plus overall in his zone Easily defined. Power play quarterback. Elusive. Impossible to teach his skill set. Needs to be paired with a 'D' partner who is a stay at home / more physical style player. | Mar. 23, 2024 | Mar. 27, 2024 |
| Carter Yakemchuk | - | RD | 18 | 2 of 2 | A+
P1
| Ends the year with an impressive stats line that reads: 66GP - 30G - 41A - 71 PTS - 120PIMS Scored 10 goals on the PP Big body. Mobile. Creative off the rush. Ability to break pucks out on his own or distribute and join as an extra layer. Defends with purpose. Used in all situations - logs a ton of minutes. 2-way / Transitional 'D' Coveted right shot - possible top pairing - definitely middle pairing - NHL prospect. | Mar. 23, 2024 | Mar. 27, 2024 |

| After suffering through some ups and downs, earlier in the season, he's back playing to the best of his ability Workhorse. Has appeared in 49 games as of March 5th His last five starts - from February 22nd - March 2nd - he posted outstanding numbers - 1.20 GAA / .955 save percentage Butterfly athletic goalie. Competes to keep pucks out of the net. At times he gets outside his posts and has to travel a long way back to regain his crease - making him smaller in the net in the process Great feet. Good low net coverage for his stature. One more year left on a contract that pays $5.0 million but doesn't have trade protection. Many high end years ahead. Only 28 years young. #1A NHL starter. | Feb. 22, 2024 | Mar. 5, 2024 |
| Jacob Markström |  | G | 34 | 4 of 4 | 90
1A
| Report updated March 5th - 2024 The Calgary Flames MVP so far in 23/24. Huge bounce back season compared to last. At the 39 game mark he had posted a 2.61 GAA and .912 save percentage. Signed through 25/26 to a contract that counts $6.0M against the cap. Full 'no move clause' There are nights he gives up goal he would like to have back … but he has proven, this year, that he digs in to make the next save and beyond. If he goes to market, he is the top goalie target for this deadline cycle. 33 years young but a #1A puck stopper. | Feb. 19, 2024 | Mar. 5, 2024 |
| Jake Sanderson |  | LD | 21 | 4 of 4 | 90
P1
| Trending towards being the Senators top defenceman Averaging 23 minutes, per game, time on ice Used in all situations Matches up against top opponents Has contributed 7G-20A with (2G) - (7A) on the PP Not overly physical - credited with 36 hits Blocks shots at ES and on the PK (104) Elite skater. Fantastic edges. His speed gives him an advantage over opponents when tracking pucks or closing on them to kill plays. Generally an area defender - but plenty smart about his approach - High end hockey sense Competes - Skates - Provides secondary offense - Likely to score more in time - 2-way / Transitional 'D' | Feb. 27, 2024 | Mar. 4, 2024 |
| Tim Stützle | | LW | 22 | 3 of 3 | 92

Through 59GP - 14G -42A (-6) Hasn't scored a goal on the PP in 23/24 - OG - 12A with the man advantage. Involved - credited with 82 hits and 32 shot blocks - 148 shots on goal He's involved in something every shift - but overall his offense has dropped off from last year - and much of it is due to lack of goal scoring success on the PP Last season he produced 10G - 18A on the PP alone. | Feb. 27, 2024 | Mar. 4, 2024 |
| Brock Faber |  | RD | 21 | 3 of 3 | 91

| Sergei Bobrovsky | | G | 35 | 2 of 3 | 91
1A
| Bobrovsky ran hot in playoffs, last spring, for the Panthers and he's continued his stellar play in to this season. Through 42GP he posted a 2.36 GAA and .916 save percentage. Athletic. Great feet. Quick moving side to side. Can be a bit 'busy' in the crease at times but he's doing a nice job of fronting shooters and taking away net. His game, in its current form, has rarely given up poor goals against this season overall. Securely in the discussion for another Vezina trophy. Heavy workload. One of the top 5 goalies in games played. | Feb. 20, 2024 | Feb. 24, 2024 |
| Connor Hellebuyck | | G | 30 | 5 of 6 | 91
1A
| Continues to provide the Jets with the kind of goaltending that can lead teams to successful runs come playoffs. In his first 41GP he's posted a 2.19 GAA and a .925 save percentage - both statistics are best in the league for goalies who have played over 35 games. Gives the group a chance to win tight checking, low scoring games. Big in the net. Relies on sound positioning. Squares up. Doesn't give the shooter much to look at. Confident. Poised. No concerning holes in his game overall. | Feb. 19, 2024 | Feb. 24, 2024 |
| Adam Valentini | - | C | 15 | 2 of 2 | A+
L1
| Adam continues to stand out as one of the top players in his age category. Elite offensive talent. Sees the ice. Jumps to open space off the puck to open up seams for his team mates to outlet plays to him in stride. A threat off the rush. Ability to beat opponents 1vs1 via offensive zone entries with speed. Playing LD on the PP speaks to his versatility and offensive acumen. Equal parts shooter / distributor in the role. Average plus defensively. There are times he could 'lock onto' his man better ... but overall he's always in the area and rarely cheats defensively. Outstanding in the face-off circle. Set plays can come off his stick via winning draws in all three zones. Has a gear / can push the play aggressively when he sees opportunity. Top line OHL in the near future. Monitor shift length in relation to energy / consistent push throughout the entire game. Future prospect who will be monitored closely, immediately, when he arrives in the OHL - by NHL scouts. | Feb. 16, 2024 | Feb. 18, 2024 |
| Kaiden Guhle | | LD | 22 | 4 of 4 | 90
P1

| Another interesting viewing of Levshunov at the University of Michigan vs the Wolverines - February 9th - 2024 Used in all situations. Even more active offensively. Jumped down to extend plays in the offensive zone almost every shift. Literally calls for the puck all night long. Wants to make an impact offensively. Great jump. Skating is fantastic. Great first three strides. Outstanding feet overall. Used in all situations. Like any young defenceman playing at the college level he had a few shifts that lacked some detail. He found himself on the wrong side of his man out front his crease and on the back check with some late zone exits. Overall - can't teach offense / size / puck touch and compete. He wants to be a difference maker and also adds a physical element. Easily logging over 22:00 TOI per game. 29GP - 8G-20A and a fantastic (+24) defensively. | Feb. 9, 2024 | Feb. 10, 2024 |

| One of the most elite young defenders in the entire NHL Complete player Averaging 24:24 TOI - 20:50 ES - 3:05 PP - 0:28 PK Capable of more of a role on the PK but there is a limit to what he can handle over 60 minutes Fantastic vision. Excellent distributor. Has the legs to join the rush as an extra layer. Can also lead the attack if time and space opens up. Great size. Pushes back. Blocks shots. Likely Norris trophy type candidate for years to come. | Oct. 21, 2023 | Oct. 23, 2023 |
| Tim Stützle | | LW | 21 | 2 of 3 | 92
FP
| Complete player. Deployed in all situations. Plays quick and fast. Relentless competitor. Through the first four games in (23/24) he is averaging 20:36 TOI 15:41 at ES / 4:10 on PP#1 / 0:44 on the PK 2G - 4A - 8 pims (+2) - credited with 5 hits and 4 shot blocks On the power-play he generally sets up on his strong side. The kind of player with the hockey sense to see plays developing one step ahead. When he catches a puck he has already determined what his options are to make the next play. Equal parts distributor / shooter. As F1 on the forecheck he isn't shy about rubbing his man off the puck. Has some bump and push back. Speed element is difficult to defend against. Wins most of his races to pucks. In tight areas, watch how effective he is spinning off checks, moving pucks to space and skating to an open area to make himself available for a return feed. Infectious. Dynamic. Part of the Senators young leadership group. | Oct. 18, 2023 | Oct. 21, 2023 |
| Charlie McAvoy | | RD | 25 | 1 of 1 | 92
P1
| One of the top defenders in the entire NHL. Complete player. Logs between 23:00 - 25:00 TOI. Used in all situations. Takes on the task of matching up against top lines. Pushes back and blocks shots. Trusted to start in all three zones. Better than secondary offense. Leans distributor but capable of beating NHL goalies from range. Competes. Cares.

| Elias Pettersson | | C | 24 | 1 of 1 | 90
FP
| His game went to another level in (22/23) The team went through some ups and downs but Pettersson wasn't distracted. Playmaker off the rush. Exceptionally dangerous on the back flank on the PP. One of the top shooters, from tight angles, in the entire league. Shoots the puck hard and accurately. Carries himself his own way. Competes. Cares. The kind of difference maker to build a team around. Play driver who averages over 20:00 TOI - used in all situations - 257 SOG in (22/23 | Oct. 11, 2023 | Oct. 14, 2023 |
| Connor McDavid | | C | 26 | 1 of 2 | 96
FP
| The most dangerous offensive player in the entire NHL Fantastic skater. Quick. Fast. Elusive. Almost impossible to defend off the rush when he has a full head of steam. Goal scoring went to a new level in 22/23 season Averages over 22:00 TOI - used in all situations Detail, defensively, has room to be better at times ... but he more than makes up for it with his offense. Competes. Pushes back along the wall. Generational talent. | Oct. 11, 2023 | Oct. 14, 2023 |
| Joshua Morrissey | | LD | 28 | 1 of 2 | 91

| Adam Fantilli |  | C | 18 | 6 of 7 | 93
FP
| In his first taste of pro hockey Fantilli was outstanding at the Traverse City rookie tournament. He scored 3G-4A in 2GP. A massive threat off the rush. He backs opponents off in transition, opening up space for his line mates arriving late in support. Extends plays along the boards with his quickness and zone reads. Hockey IQ to be used in all situations. Top line / franchise player on projections. Empties the tank every shift. | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 19, 2023 |
