RISING
Cory
Emmerton,
C
--
Kingston
(OHL)
Height:
6'0 Weight:
181
The rookie sensation from the Kingston Frontenacs was projected to be a
solid two-way player, but he has jumped out quickly and is assembling great
offensive stats. He has displayed excellent vision and a tricky stick that has
allowed him to carry some of the scoring load for the Frontenacs. His continual
improvement has been in all facets of the game and as a result, he continues to
rocket up our charts for the 2006 Draft.
Evan
Fuller, C
-- Prince George (WHL)
Height:
6’1 Weight: 196
Fuller has had a great start to the
year. He does it all: kills
penalties, power play, and doesn’t shy away from a good fight. He came into camp in great shape and ready to play. Every year
someone comes out of the woodwork resulting in a surprise pick.
Fuller is this year’s version. He continues to get better on a nightly basis.
Fuller is a very well-rounded forward who plays in both ends of the rink and
possesses the unteachable talent of leadership. he was Prince George's third
round pick,
44th overall, in 2003 Bantam Draft.
Matthew
McCue, D
--
Spokane (WHL)
Height: 6'5 Weight: 208
McCue
is a big, strong defenseman who is rugged and capable of playing a physical
style of game. He will not hesitate to drop the gloves to settle a score
or stick up for a teammate. He has the size and strength to dominate in the
corners and along the walls.
Ivan
Vishnevsky, D
--
Rouyn-Noranda (QMJHL)
