Well Ehlers certainly didn't hurt his stock at the young stars tournament in Penicton and by all accounts looked to be a tier or two above most of the players there.
In my draft picks 5, 6,and 7 were Ehlers (my pick), Gaudreau, and Nylander (my pick) who I think all have similar upsides and don't see much seperation between them in terms of who is the better prospect. From what I have read and seen in highlights they are all having great prospect tournaments and I think it is a coin flip on who will end up be top offensive player of the three once they crack the line-up.

His skating is elite already and his hands are looking pretty amazing too...

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
The 1st round of this draft was fine. But it dropped off in a hurry after that.
Just one thing to nitpick from that video of Ehlers.....how many times did he almost fall over in that video? I know skating is one of his strong suits and looks great for the most part in the video, but the second he scores a goal he starts teeter-tottering around like a first year mite.
