Michigan defenseman Jon Merrill is notorious for off ice incidents keeping him off the ice. However, when he has played, he's been a dominant two-way player in college and has a high upside. Thus, we ranked Merrill #4 on our Top 25 Under 25 List.

Alexander Urbom has received a few games with the New Jersey Devils, while becoming a mobile, physical, and defensive defenseman in Albany. Between his skillset and that he's close to making it, we ranked him #5 on our Top 25 Devils Under 25 List.

Eric Gelinas had a very productive season as a rookie in Albany. Given the New Jersey Devils' lack of offensive defensemen, it's more of a reason to think highly Gelinas. Our writers certainly did, ranking him #7 on our Top 25 Devils Under 25 List.

After being drafted by the New Jersey Devils in 2010, Scott Wedgewood went on to have a very successful junior career. As he's going pro, our writers thought highly of the goaltender enough to rank him #8 on our Top 25 Devils Under 25 List.

The New Jersey Devils kept their 2012 first round pick and used it to take forward Stefan Matteau. He's got the size and enough talent where a NHL future seems likely. Learn about how he was ranked #10 on our Top 25 Devils Under 25 list.

Reece Scarlett has logged a lot of minutes at Swift Current and has become a productive defender in his time with the WHL team. His offensive skills helped drive our writers to name him #11 on our Top 25 Devils Under 25 list.

Reid Boucher is one of the few offensive prospects currently in the New Jersey Devils' system. He has plenty of work to do, but his shot is among the best among all current prospects. As such, he was ranked #12 on our Top 25 Devils Under 25 List.
