Thought it was worth making a thread of him since all his talk keeps coming back into the Iguchi thread. Japanese born forward put up solid stats (over goal per game) in the NAPHL's Pursuit of Excellence Prep School. Has okay frame being 5'8", but still needs to bulk up as he is currently 140 lbs. Some people who follow Japanese hockey say he's as talented as a player they've had - very good goalscorer.
He was drafted in the 22nd round of the past USHL draft and just signed with the Phantoms. They're probably throwing him a bone, however, it will be interesting to see how well he does.
