Connolly Mid Pack in TSN Top 10 NHL Entry Draft

Friday, September 18, 2009 09:00 AM

Prince George,. B.C.- Today is Brett Connolly Day in Price George, and how fitting that the 6'1" right winger should hear that, according to TSN, he is ranked number 5 overall in their top ten draft prospects fo the 2010 NHL entry draft.

TSN's assessment of Connolly is that "“Injury limited his effectiveness for Canada at the U-18 tourney in August – he got hurt in the first game, sat out the next two before dressing for the gold-medal game -- but his excellent production for Prince George in the WHL last year has demonstrated he's a smooth and polished offensive performer who plays the game with a great deal of confidence.”

The Sports Network pegs two Windsor Spitfire team mates, Taylor Hall, and Cam Fowler as numbers one and two respectively for the draft.

Weren't they saying that about the fella from California who was associated to the San Jose Sharks and got injured while playing for the cougars? He got released by them. If connelly can stay fit hopefully he won't be dumped like the others.
