With the Ninth Overall Pick in the 2010 Entry Draft,
the Atlanta Thrashers are proud to select from Prince George of the Western Hockey League
Brett Connolly!!
"Brett's a warrior." Don Waddell stated on the draft floor. "To go through what he went through this year and come back strong, he's the kind of player you go to war with. He's got the skill necessary to be an offensive weapon as a pro but it's his compete level that stays with you every time you watch him play."
