Throughout the season, we will check in on the Toronto Maple Leafs prospects to see how they are progressing. The 2020 Draft included a dozen picks and a great deal of promise.
Here is how the players selected in the 2020 Draft are doing:
Joe Miller – C – 6th round – 180th overall – Harvard (ECAC)
Miller graduated from the Chicago Steel of the USHL to Harvard University and after a strong freshman year for the Crimson, the 21-year-old is leading the club with 25 points (11 goals and 14 assists) in 30 games.
I was curious to see Joe Miller's (No. 12) production at Harvard this season after the team lost numerous high-end forwards
He's stepped up as The Guy with the Crimson to lead the team in scoring. Miller has 3 goals and 6 points in 5 games since the winter break#LeafsForeverpic.twitter.com/ky51A7qQ7E
John Fusco – D – 7th round – 189th overall – Dartmouth (NCAA)
Fusco struggled to get playing time as a freshman at Harvard and transferred to Dartmouth for more opportunities this season. After scoring 11 points in 22 games as a sophomore, the 22-year-old started off quickly with three goals in six games and has 14 points (5 goals, 9 assists) in 29 games for the Big Green this season.
A big weekend for John Fusco (No. 3) with a goal and 4 points in 2 games against Brown and Yale.
Dartmouth secured the No. 4 in the ECAC and earned a first-round bye.
Wyatt Schingoethe – F - 7th round – 195th overall – Western Michigan (NCHC)
Schingoethe is a good two-way player and was committed to Denver, but opted to play for Western Michigan. After going pointless in 20 games as a freshman, the 21-year-old played only eight games last season and after sitting out early in the campaign, he has four assists in 20 games this year.
Ryan Tverberg – C – 7th round – 213th overall – Toronto (AHL)
Tverberg has been an overwhelming success based on where he was drafted. Originally committed to Harvard, he shifted to the University of Connecticut after the pandemic. After seasons of 32 points and 30 points with the Huskies, the 22-year-old signed an ELC with the Leafs and played at the end of the 2022-23 for the Marlies. The Richmond Hill, ON native has 30 points (9 goals, 21 assists) in 39 games as an AHL rookie.
