Quick comment: I just started reading the article, but Kingston is part of the Ontario Hockey League, not Western

Edit: after finishing the article, it's great like the rest of them. Interesting insight how the injury last year played such a big role in his development path.

Really interested to see what Watson can do this year in the AHL. He has never been afraid to go to the dirty areas and has sick hands around the net. The question will be can he be quick enough to not get killed and remain healthy. At 5'10', he is taller than some of our previous smaller prospects that have a scorning knack. Sounds like skating still needs to improve. Not sure how competitive the Reign will be this year, but it will be great seeing a lot of new players.

Hmmm...funny thing is...I knew that. Good catch.
