Logan Stankoven's story
Growing up in Kamloops, Logan Stankoven became the kind of forward who drove his junior team’s offence with a busy stick and accurate release. He rose through the ranks of the WHL with the Kamloops Blazers, climbing his scoring totals year after year and losing a potential 30-goal 16-year-old milestone only because the 2019–20 season was cut short by the COVID-19 shutdown.
Dallas selected him in the second round, 47th overall, at the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, and he signed a three-year entry-level deal on 29 September 2021. Back in Kamloops he produced standout campaigns: in 2021–22 he posted 45 goals and 59 assists in 59 games and collected major WHL awards as well as the CHL’s player of the year honour. The following season he again finished among the top scorers while appearing in fewer than the full slate of games, and he also received recognition for his humanitarian work.
Stankoven's professional debut came with the Texas Stars in the AHL. He established himself quickly, earning a place in the 2024 AHL All-Star Game and leading the league in scoring at the time of his NHL recall in late February. He made his NHL debut against Carolina on 24 February 2024 and, two days later on his 21st birthday, recorded his first NHL goal and assist. In the AHL he was named rookie of the year and selected to both the All-Rookie and First All-Star teams.
A trade on 7 March 2025 sent him to Carolina in a deal that reshaped his path, and he agreed to a long-term extension beginning in 2026–27. The next playoff run cemented his impact: he led the Hurricanes in goals during the 2026 postseason and was part of the squad that clinched the Stanley Cup with a 3–0 series win on 14 June 2026, contributing an assist in the deciding game.
Internationally, Stankoven has represented Canada at multiple junior levels. He scored the game-winner in the U18 world championship final against Russia and later was a key piece of Canada’s back-to-back World Junior gold-medal teams, often cited among his team’s best players. On the ice he combines goal scoring, playmaking vision and disciplined play, producing offence while keeping his penalty minutes low.
