Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2008-09: The Ducks signed Sexton straight out of Bowling Green State University after the center had finished a breakout season. In his sophomore year, Sexton led his school in scoring with 39 points in 38 games. The 17 goals he scored that season more than doubled his freshman year totals.
2009-10: In his first professional season, Sexton played for the Bakersfield Condors of the ECHL, where he posted 13 goals and 13 assists in 18 games, the Manitoba Moose of the AHL, where he posted 5 goals and 7 assists in 13 games, and the Anaheim Ducks, where he posted 9 goals and 10 assists through 41 games. By the end of the season Sexton looked as though he was an NHL regular and often played in a top-six role. Two of his 9 goals were on the man-advantage.
Talent Analysis
Undersized at 5'10, 165 pounds, Sexton will no doubt have to battle against bigger opponents for the rest of his career. He is not a particularly fast skater, but showed to be effective in the half of a season he played in the NHL.
Has the offensive ability to contribute in a top-six role as well as on the powerplay.
Future
Will compete for a spot in the NHL.
