Phenom James Sheppard is starting to heat up after a fairly slow start. After tonights 5 point performence he now has 34 points in 44 games as a 16 year old in the QMJHL. Right now he is 6`2 195 so I am guessing he may fill out to 6`4 210. He should be a lock to go in the top ten for the 2006 entry draft.
-Great defensivly at the age of 16
-Plays with an edge and is physical
-Jeff Carter like speed
-Amazing hockey sense
-Great shot
-Great attitude
For those who thought Breault was hands down the best player at last years draft because of his offensive skills.
