Americans Looking Strong for 2008 Draft

From Kevin Allen at USA Today,

Based on early season reviews, there seem to be four to six Americans with strong first-round potential, led by 6-7 defenseman Tyler Myers of the Western Hockey League and Boston University center Colin Wilson. He is the son of Carey Wilson, who played 13 seasons in the NHL with Calgary, Hartford and the New York Rangers.

Myers is a native Texan whose family moved to Alberta because his dad worked in the oil industry. Right now he’s probably rated in 10 to 16 range, but some believe he has a chance to be another Pronger.

Also, Kevin Allen’s blog looks at various top 2008 prospects today.
