Excerpt:
"The offseason is in full gear for the Washington Capitals, with the search for their next GM and head coach ongoing. The draft is nearing as well, with Washington holding a lottery pick for the first time in years. The Hockey Writers breaks down Washington’s top ten prospects with an analysis for each player. These rankings will be released a few teams each season.
1. Andre Burakovsky, Forward
Age: 19
Height/Weight: 6’2â€, 187
Handiness: Left
Acquired: 2013 23rd overall (1st round)
2013-14 Stats: 57 GP, 41 G, 87 P (Erie/OHL)
Burakovsky was one of the best bargains of the 2013 draft, amazingly dropping to the Capitals at the 23rd pick. He has good size, great skating ability and was one of the most creative players in the Ontario Hockey League during the 2013-14 regular season. Burakovsky needs to work on his defensive game to mature into a well-rounded player and not be a liability outside of the offensive zone without the puck. He won’t need much time till he reaches the NHL, but could start the season with a short stint in the AHL.
Upside: First line winger, could make impact with Capitals this upcoming season
2. Madison Bowey, Defenseman..."
