What he brings to juniors
Arnold offers a junior program a school-developed prospect with regular season responsibility to examine. His movement and saved-puck assessment gives the staff a reason to test a development role, while the wider outcomes leave repeatability open.
What translates
The prior opinion includes mobility and control after contact. A recruiting staff should determine whether those qualities remain coordinated when a pass changes the angle and a rebound quickly creates another threat.
USA Rank #21 · 2010Why this placement
His rank recognizes a credible school-to-junior evaluation case. The amount of next-level responsibility depends on whether the technical foundation can become more consistent against older-player pressure.
Next development step
The next step is maintaining organized preparation on routine chances as well as difficult saves. Controlled first contact and an efficient recovery would help turn his school experience into a firmer junior projection.
Competitive context
His 2025–26 record with Moorhead High lists 27 appearances, with a 2.19 goals-against average and a .894 save percentage.
