Thank you Elon!
I didn't see a thread on this speedster, here is his EP link: Nicholas Robertson at eliteprospects.com
Brother of Dallas Stars power forward Jason Robertson, Nicholas plays nearly the exact opposite style of game. He is shifty, fast, creative with the puck...he is on the smaller side but his older brothers are both over 6'0 and I believe he is now 5'10 so not a smurf here either. He had a great showing at the Hlinka for the US, and seems to have put himself in the top 31 conversation for this years draft.
He had a strong rookie year in the OHL last year, a bit under the radar - 15g 18a - 33 points..I see a nice leap in goals and points this year, the confidence is clearly there for him, his role will be expanding as well...definitely someone to keep tabs on as this is the new NHL, and these are the players that are starting to get taken much higher in drafts than 5-6 years ago.
Robertson and Kaliyev were teammates for the US at the Hlinka, and could likely be the top 2 US born players taken out of the OHL in next years draft.
