Benjamin Kevan is a 6-foot-183-pound forward who most recently played with the Des Moines Buccaneers of the United States Hockey League. The 18-year-old also participated in the United States National Development Program and played 13 games with two goals and an assist, and contributed the same offensive stats in seven games in the World Junior Championships. Kevan’s production dipped with Des Moines this season as his goal total dropped to 13 from 24 the previous season. Kevan is committed to play college hockey at Arizona State University for the 2025-26 season.
Benjamin Kevan is ranked by some hockey evaluators in the top 50 in the upcoming draft as a forward. The following list will show the scouting rankings for Benjamin Kevan:
Ranked #46 by Inside The Rink

Ranked #30 by Recruit Scouting
Ranked #41 by Elite Prospects
Ranked #63 by TSN/Craig Button
Ranked #49 by TSN/Bob McKenzie
Scouting Report
Kevan’s best attribute is his skating speed. Kevan is an offensively skilled player who can make plays with his speed and mobility, but his shooting percentage went down this season. Playing in the NCAA against good competition and with better linemates will give a better indication of Kevan’s true ability. The Fairfield, California native is an intriguing pick somewhere in the second or third round and could end up being a great value there.
Projection:
Second Round – #58 Vegas
