Ellis makes his debut on the TLN Prospect Rankings just inside the Top 20 after his impressive breakout season at Notre Dame. Ellis was hot in the first half of the NCAA season, scoring 13 goals and 23 points in Notre Dame’s first 20 games to land squarely on NHL radars. Down the stretch, Ellis scored just three goals and five points in the final 19 games of his season. On special teams, Ellis was largely a secondary powerplay contributor with Notre Dame and I don’t see a ton of powerplay upside in his game. Depending on what further moves are made and how he plays early in the season, Ellis could quickly climb up the lineup.
