#TrackingTheDraft with @CraigJButton

Craig Button is the Director of Scouting for TSN and joins Dean Millard each week for Tracking the Draft. 

In The Next Wave Craig  and I discuss players who are projected to go after the first round, where great players, superstars and Hall of Fame players have been taken. Luke Tuch is a speedy power forward who can kill penalties and will thrive in the middle of the line up. He played last year with the USNDT and is off to Boston University. Martin Chromiak of the Kingston Frontenacs has a compact and quick release that doesn't scrape the roof with a wind up. He's young and only played 28 games in the OHL last year, so expectations will be high this coming season.

Cole Perfetti is one of the smartest, if not the smartest player in the draft. His 37 goals and 111 points was 2nd in the OHL and he scored 37 as as rookie.

In Top Shelf Talent Craig and I discuss players who are projected to go in the first round, choosing from the Top 40 on Craig's List. This week it's Cole Perfetti, maybe the smartest player in the draft. He was the CHL Scholastic Player of the Year and always seems to be 2 steps ahead on the ice. Like Neo from the Matrix. I asked Craig about his skating and received a terrific response. 

In The Next Wave Craig and I discuss players who are projected to go after the first round, where great players, superstars and Hall of Fame players have been taken. Luke Tuch from the USNDT is a big, speedy power forward who plays a role on the PK and will thrive in the middle part of the line up. Martin Chromiak plays both wings and get the puck away in a hurry, one of the youngest players in the draft - still 17 - he might one day have his own spot on the ice where he rips one timers. Craig relaid a great story about Jarome Iginla and working on accuracy. 

In Time Machine Craig tells a story regarding a past player and the NHL Draft while relating it to a player in this year's draft prospect pool. Former Dallas Star Jere Lehtinen as Craig put it was the most important part of the great Stars teams of the 90's and when he was separated from Mike Modano, the Hall of Famer did not like it. The player that Craig sees qualities of Lehtinen in with this year's draft is London Knight forward Luke Evangelista who like Lehtinen can slide anywhere in the line up and play any style.

His numbers, while constantly playing with older players are better than what Leon Draisaitl put up at the same ages and I asked Craig what impact Stutzle would have had it he played in the WHL this year.
