Wyatt Cullen is the kind of draft prospect whose first NHL contract could flip the financial script in a hurry. That is the hidden part of the prospect game - the on-ice hype is only half the story, because one good draft day can set up a life-changing next step. The number everybody watches is not just where he gets taken, but how teams value the player before he even signs a deal. Cullen’s stock is the story, and the stakes rise the moment the league starts writing checks.
