The Nashville Predators used their final third-round pick of the 2024 draft to select Hiroki Gojsic at 94th overall.

The Predators are getting a 6'3, 198 lbs right winger who is a power forward that can also shoot the puck. Gojsic played for the Kelowna Rockets of the WHL this season and produced 21 goals and 50 points in 68 games prior to recording five assists in 11 playoff games.

He had a slow start, but what is seen to be the most impressive about Gajsic is his hard work and determination to improve. He has lots of offensive upside and his reach also gives him a big advantage defensively.

Gajsic is great in corner battles by using his size and reach, but doesn't have the quickest decision-making in the offensive zone. He has lots of room to grow and his natural abilities and size are definitely positives that he can develop around. He has the potential to find himself as high as a third line center in the NHL down the line.
