He already has a pro build at 6'0 and 187 pounds, and aside from Tomasino, was easily the best player on the ice. Sure to be the #1 pick of the 2022 draft. He just has all the tools and the work rate, game awareness and pace to be a superstar NHL player. | Brian Fogarty | Kingston vs Oshawa (OHL) | Video (With Replay) | 1/25/2020 |
