“That’s a very interesting one, a right-handed shooting defenseman who hasn’t really done anything yet but has lots of upside,†said Thompson. “The big thing for Stewart is that he just got a scholarship to an NCAA school (Nebraska-Omaha). That gives whoever takes him in the draft, four more years to let him develop. He has the tools. I think he’s a candidate for the late part of the draft.â€
