The world’s #1 amateur scouting platform
The most complete scouting reports
Our staff relies on Neutral Zone reports, and rankings to confirm or challenge our evaluations of players. I believe their scouting staff does an excellent job in providing thorough reports on Draft eligible players in North America.
Mike Johnson, GM, Portland Winterhawks (WHL) · Former NHL Head Coach (Pittsburgh Penguins)
Neutral Zone is a valuable resource in scouting not only for the reports and rankings they provide but their historical data to follow player trend lines throughout their amateur career.
Eric Fink, NHL Amateur Scout, Carolina Hurricanes
Members of the Neutral Zone staff are visible at rinks throughout the course of the entire hockey season around the world, giving subscribers confidence that Neutral Zone scouting reports are reliable and accurate. The Neutral Zone website features player profiles, rankings, team rankings and news — providing the most comprehensive content on amateur hockey throughout the United States, Canada and Europe in a single location.
