I noticed Dubinsky was invited to U.S. WJC evaluation camp and was wondering if any WHL experts had any info on him. Some details I found was he was Portland's leading scorer this year, and was actually the leading scorer for 17 year olds in the WHL. Any details on strengths, weaknesses, style of play, etc would be appreciated.

115. Brandon Dubinsky, C, Portland Winter Hawks (WHL) -- 5-11, 180 L (71 GP, 30-48-78, 137 PIM)
Led the Winter Hawks, and finished 11th in overall league scoring, in 2003-04--the most points by any 2004 draft-eligible player from the WHL. Also finished fourth on the Hawks with 137 penalty minutes in 71 games. Has above-average scoring ability and a knack for being at the right place at the right time. Lacks the fluid skating ability of a first-round draft pick, and is only average in defensive situations. Loves to get his nose dirty and projects to be an agitating energy player at the NHL level. Must alleviate a tendency to take bad penalties at inopportune moments.


Sounds kind of like Darcy Tucker, who put up some big numbers in juniors himself.
