The Capitals prospects are making a name for themselves at World Juniors.

The Washington Capitals are well-represented at the 2025 World Junior Championships, with six prospects taking part in the tournament in Ottawa. And going into the quarterfinals, several names are making their presence known.

Here's a look at how they're doing with World Juniors power rankings.

1. Eriks Mateiko

Eriks Mateiko has been on fire for Latvia, a team that's made history in this World Juniors tournament thanks in large part to the Capitals prospect.

Mateiko has four goals through four games for his country and also had the shootout winner that stunned Team Canada back on Friday in one of the biggest international upsets.

On Monday, he struck twice, including the overtime winner, to send Lativa to the quarterfinals for the first time in tournament history.

The 6-foot-5 power forward gets to the high-danger areas, and his hockey IQ, playmaking ability and shot make him a constant threat on offense.

Mateiko went in the third round of the 2024 NHL Draft and signed his entry-level deal this summer, and the organization is thrilled with him as a pick. Watch for him to continue to rise to prominence.

2. Cole Hutson

Cole Hutson is quarterbacking Team USA's blue line, and he's been a force to be reckoned with all tournament long.

Through three games so far, Hutson has a goal and five assists. His six points are tied for the team scoring lead, and he ranks second in scoring among all World Juniors defensemen.

With the exception of a lost edge that led to a turnover and an overtime winner for Finland, Hutson has been stellar on the backend.

The 18-year-old, who Washington traded up to select in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft this past summer, is moving the puck well and making a name for himself as he follows in the footsteps of his older brother, Montreal Canadiens rearguard Lane.

3. Ryan Leonard

Wearing the "C" for Team USA, Ryan Leonard's been a force to be reckoned with, bringing his gritty play and high-scoring ability to the international stage.

He has three points in three games so far and is a plus-4, and under his leadership, he's helped sparked Team USA to the top of the Group A standings while playing a pivotal role and logging quite a bit of ice time.

It's promising to see from the Boston College sophomore, who could very well make the NHL jump this spring.

4. Petr Sikora

The Czechs are enjoying a solid start to the tournament, and Petr Sikora's helped supply some good secondary scoring.

Washington's 2024 sixth-round selection has been making a name for himself with his impressive two-way play and aggression on the forecheck, and he has two goals and two assists through three games to show for it. He also leads all WJC skaters in plus/minus with a rating of plus-9.

Sikora plays well beyond his 5-foot-10 frame, and he's definitely working to be a diamond in the rough for D.C.

5. Leon Muggli

Switzerland hasn't had a great start to the tournament, and it went about the same for Leon Muggli until the team was able to keep pace with Sweden on Sunday.

Muggli picked up three assists in that game and has been getting valuable time playing on the top pairing and on special teams. However, there are areas of his game, including his skating and vision, that need work.

6. Miroslav Satan Jr.

Slovakia has managed to make the playoffs, but it hasn't been the best tournament so far for Miroslav Satan Jr., who the Capitals selected this summer after trading back into the seventh round.

Satan has played in a fourth-line role while receiving limited minutes, and the 6-foot-7 forward has been held without a point while managing a plus/minus rating of minus-2.

Given the lack of ice time, it's hard to put much on Satan's performance through this tournament, but there's still a lot of potential there given his size and battle.
