Vladislav Kolyachonok is my choice for the 'Canes #1 Pick for the 2019 NHL Draft.
Seen him play several times for the London Knights before being moved to Flint.
2018-19 Team: Flint Firebirds (#18); Date of Birth: May 26, '01, Left-D-Man.
Place of Birth: Minsk, Belarus; Ht: 6’2” Wt: 181 lbs.
“Kolyachonok is an intelligent player. His positioning in the defensive zone is very sound. His skating allows him to angle opponents off – difficult to beat one-on-one. He uses a very active stick to defend and closes lanes smartly and quickly. His transitioning from defence to offence is excellent. He has the ability to skate out of danger and out of the zone, but he is also capable of making an excellent first pass. He is also a left shot defender who plays as strong on his off side.” – Dominic Tiano/OHL Writers

A left D as our 1st pick? I mean, I don't want to take advantage of a fellow Canes fan and all but....do you want to put some money on that?
