History
The last Red Wings pick in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft is continuing his solid offensive contribution in the WHL.
2006-07: Pyett has always been known for his offensive play and numbers, but this season he worked hard on improving the defensive aspects of the game. He was a go-to guy with the Regina Pats of the WHL and was among the league leaders in defensive scoring.

Talent Analysis
Drafted as a crafty, puck-moving defenseman. He’s small and a bit weak in his own end, but thanks to his hockey sense and vision he seems to position himself very well both offensively and defensively in order to stay out of trouble.
Future
Pyett has some tools to make it to the pro ranks (hockey sense, passing, mobility), but he’ll need to add strength and improve his play in his own end. His physical play and positioning need development.
