68th Overall Nick Cousins // Center // Sault Ste. Marie // OHL
Cousins was the first of many St. Marie's stars to go in the third round. At 5'11 Nick is average size for a center man. He plays a pesty game but also posted 68 points in 68 games, also scratching out 5 points in 7 games at the World-U18 games this year. His game could use some work but he is a stellar pick in the 3rd round. Follow him on Twitter @Cous27. Yahoo Q&A: Link NHL Profile: Link
116th Overall Colin Suellentrop // Defense // Oshawa // OHL
Suellentrop is a 6'2" defenseman who plays a gritty defensive game. He is not scared to drop the gloves either, but Suellentrop is responsible averaging 70 penalty minutes in his past two years of junior play. Scouting reports suggest he needs polish.
118 Overall Marcel Noebels // Left Wing // Seattle // WHL
Noebels had a great first year of junior with Seattle registering 28 goals and 54 points in 66 games. The -11 suggests he needs to work on his game at both ends, keep in mind his team was the 3rd worst in the WHL last season. Noebels will continue in juniors next season.
176th Overall Petr Placek // Right Wing // Hotchkiss // CT High School
Placek has the potential to be a huge steal. The young winger stands in at 6'4", 200 lbs and plays a smart game. Scouts rave about his intelligence and mentality. Some even saw him going in the first round, luckily he feel to Philly in the late 6th.
206 Overall Derek Mathers // Right Winger // Peterborough // OHL
Mathers is known for being a fighter with Peterborough. At 6'3" 226 he is NHL ready size-wise. Without any further ramblings, THIS:
