Thanks for the assist Zo

Seth Jones is supposed to be something really special. I've seen him play once and he looked awful, but it was only his second game in the WHL. I've heard he has adjusted to the league since then. Shea Theodore is going to be a good offensive defenseman.

It's hard to judge how they will turn out when they turn professional. I was fortunate to see Thomas Hickey play for two years. He stood out from everyone else. He dictated the play and just had amazing vision. Unfortunately his game hasn't panned out on the professional level. Which I am quite surprised about.

Another guy to watch is Jared Hauf. He started slow, but he's coming around. Listed number 23 on the WHL list.

Right now the Lightning would be picking in 5th if the season ended today. If that holds up, look at the possibility of Valeri Nichushkin of Chelyabinsk. 6'4", almost 2 bills, skates like the wind, goes to the net, shoots hard. Split most of his time in men's leagues this season between the VHL and KHL. The Lightning should be aware of him being in the same organization as Nesterov.

Nichushkin/Namestnikov/Kucherov would be a line with a little bit of everything on it.

Ha!

I really don't like having this discussion about these awesome draft picks again... but, I guess this season is a good one to lose big, if it ends up being that way. (#SethJonesSethJonesSethJones)

There is a Floridian who is eligible for the draft. And by Floridian I meant someone who was born, raised, and played most of his youth hockey in Florida
