So many uber-hyped young forwards at the moment, drafted and to be drafted,
but there's one who gets zero love around here, i'm talking about Kieffer Bellows.
He is playing in his first (mostly likely his only) WHL/CHL season for Portland Winterhawks,
his monster of a season has been overlooked by many.
Led the WJC in goals, by scoring 9 goals and braking team USA record,USA won bronze.
Has 38 goals and almost 70 points this season in only 49 games, from his 38 goals
30 has come 5 on 5, has 251 shots on goal, his .78 goals per game avg
ranks him 4th in the WHL.
Kieffer was drafted by the Islanders, 19th overall. Its safe to say Isles going to have
a serious look what he can do next season, i think he fits perfectly with Barzal,
Barzal (playmaker) + Bellows (sniper) = great 2nd line punch combo if you ask me
and if Anthony Beauvillier isn't a one hit wonder,...then great 2nd line for them.
I predict great things for him in the NHL, probably not going to shine as bright
as his father did in the NHL, but something special nevertheless.
