NHL Central Scouting has released its final rankings for the 2016 NHL Draft, with a new No. 1 player among North American skaters.

Pierre-Luc Dubois of the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles was the most notable riser from the mid-term rankings, moving up six spots to take the top spot going into the June draft in Buffalo. "Dubois has the ability to play a multi-faceted game balancing all of the essential elements and is equally adept finishing a play or setting one up," explained TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button earlier this season.

Dubois, ranked fourth in last month's 'Craig's List' ranking compiled by Button, scored 42 goals and tallied 99 points in 62 games this season.  

Check out the full list of North American skaters and goaltenders.
