Since the Kings love to draft collage kids and them not having a second rounder, does anyone have some insight on these players?
Mike Lundin-D-University of Maine
Brian Ihnacak-C-Brown
Jacob Dowell-C-Wisconsin
Kyle Wilson-C-Colgate
Scott Parse-F-Neb Omaha
Oliver Bouchard-LW-Union Collage
Jonathon Sigalet-D-Bowling Green
Any thoughts on these players and their style of game would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Take out Sigalet, he opted out.
Lundin seems like a decent mid round pick. Not that big for a defensemen, but has a good base of skills and was solid in both ends of the rink in the 2 games I saw. (on a side note his brother is headed to maine next year I believe)
Ihnacak I only saw once and it was early in the season. Seems like a smart player good hands, works hard. Seems like another solid mid round pick.
Dowell I've seen a few times, but didn't really notice him all that much. Played well but nothing great. His teamate and fellow '04 prospect Robbie Earl stuck out a little more with some flashy plays, plus he's a local LA boy which might be of interest. He's on the small side, as Dowell looks much thicker.
Wilson I never saw but he's got some decent size and went from 6 pts in his freshman year to 31 this year, one heck of a jump in only 4 more games.
Parse never saw either, led his team in scoring though.
Bouchard never saw as well but I was hoping the Habs would take a shot on him he's a local kid and has good size. Seems to have had a good freshman year.
