The Hockey Writers

As soon as the calendar flipped to January, the attention starts to shift over to the NHL Draft. Recently, Central Scouting released its midterm rankings and I thought it would be a great time to do a mock draft as a result of it. I mean, who doesn’t like a mock draft? It’s engaging, interesting and the possibilities are endless for many of the teams. This year’s crop is a very exciting group of talent with Kingston Frontenacs’ centre Shane Wright continuing to lead the way as the top player for the draft. While he isn’t the consensus top pick, I still see he him as the top player in this draft.
