NHL Central Scouting

NHL Central Scouting was first established prior to the 1975-76 season to provide a scouting and evaluation service for NHL member clubs. In its 30th year of operation, the NHL Central Scouting Service, headed by NHL Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations Jim Gregory and Director of Central Scouting Frank Bonello, employs nine full-time scouts and six part-time scouts who report throughout North America.

Due to the growing talent base in Europe, Central Scouting works with Goren Stubb of European Scouting Service (ESS) in Finland and his staff of five full-time scouts to report on those prospects playing throughout Europe.

NHL Central Scouting Service, together with ESS, combined to see over 3,000 games this season world-wide.
