Interesting they continue with forwards. They still have an organizational need in net and it wouldn’t hurt to pick up some defense either. Guess they also knew they needed skating forwards. Lots of those in this draft.

Interesting that they drafted a guy who is 5'7". This is not the old Kings draft style looking for heavy players. This draft has been all about speed and talent.

That goal in the CHL game is sick.

If Dudas were 3-4 inches taller, he'd have been selected much earlier. He's a June birthday so maybe he's not done growing.

What's funny about those videos is he scores at least 3 against Kings prospect Matt Villalta.

Kid shows some excellent skills. A nice flyer of a pick at this point in the draft

I remember once reading a quote from Yanetti about it being stupid to pass on small players. He was choosing his words carefully, so as not to insult his boss, but I think he was the one pushing guys like Vey and Kozun and Weal to some degree. Looks like the league has finally caught up, and hopefully those players can be successful now.
