TSN Pre season Power rankings of the rookies for the upcoming season With Bob Mckenzie, and Darren Dreger

Bob Mckenzie: At Number Ten, we got Star Power forward Jamie rose, She was the best shut down forwards in the NWJHL and she was also great offensively, I predict a solid season for her with playing GREAT Defence, Hard work and a physical game. I dont think her offence game will soon up in the SHL as much as in juniors. I predict 10 Goals 10 assists for 20 points this season. She will also get 90-100 Hits and 60-70 Blocked shots, Top five in face-off percentage and atleast a +/- of + 8 this season. She might be the best shut down forward the league has ever seen. I think the Steekhawks have a future star player and will be very important to this teams future play off runs. I expect her to be anchor the second line for a very long time.

Darren Dreger: At Number Nine, We got Talented centre Johnny Dollaz, He is playing with 2 Great wingers in sergey Kovalenko and Rashad Thomas. In my opinion in the NWJHL, He should of won MVP, He was the leading scorer for the Vancouver Whalers and he didn't have as much support at Armia,Thomas, Rose, Funke had all season long. He is a Great Two way forward, That could play any where in the line-up. I think he was one of the biggest steals in the SHL draft this past year and he will be playing on a very strong Jets roster. I Think he will be getting 15 goals and 15 assists for a 30 point season, quite impressive for this young centre.

Bob Mckenzie: At Number eight we got all star Defence man Jarrko Vatinnen, He is a cocky, hard working defence man who is by far the biggest person in the SHL, He could be much higger on this list as he has been working hard all offseason, and he got an amazing 21 Points from his mock draft. He might be tired after a long season as he is currently in the finals with the Seattle Stingrays, so far the series is 2-2 and game five is tonight, it could the biggest game he has played in this whole career. He got drafted by the rebuilding Comets, he has been told he will get top pairing minutes this season for the comets. He is everything who would want in a defence man, he could of went higher than six overall if he didn't have attitude problems as in the juniors has gotten suspended for five games for saying a rude gesture to another player. I predict 5 Goals and 15 assists for 20 points, 90-100 hits and 80 blocked shots, and a +5. He is a pure offensive talent that positions himself like no other defence man, he needs to become more of a physical defence man to show his true potential. he might have the highest potential in this draft. Him and Johansen are going to be amazing together as they might have the best top four very soon as Dupont is another talented defence man.

Darren Dreger: At number seven we got Third overall pick David Winter, He is a hard working forward and one of the best guys who could have in a locker room. He is the future captain of the Chiefs but he isn't as talented as some other forwards like Thomas/Wagner,ETC. he is going to be a star but he wont be one right now as he wasnt a PPG in juniors like other star forwards in this draft but he has the potential to be a super star. He isn't expected to produce right now. I expect him to be a minnestoa fan favourite and he might be the missing piece for the chiefs who losted in a seven game series against the Panthers in the finals. I expect him to get 15 goals and 10 assists but when the play offs come he will be a star and help his team to the cup.

Bob Mckenzie: At Number six, we got juniors defence man of the year Gabriel Johansen, If he plays like he did at the end of the season, he could be a Norris trophy candidate and maybe the calder trophy candidate, he is that good, He is one the best offensive defence man the SHL has seen for a very long time. Him and Vatinnen, could be the best pairing in the SHL soon if they keep active and work hard to become all stars and stay on the comets of course. He is also getting top line/top four mintues like Vatinnen. I see him getting 5 goals 20 assists for 25 points, +5 80 hits and 60 blocked shots for the upcoming season. This guy will dominate the league from day one and could be one of the best offensive defence man ever, he is just that good.

We will have the rest of the rankings up sometime during this week ( maybe friday/saturday. I wish the best for all of the rookies and maybe some will proved me wrong this season. I know for a fact that this isn't going to happen as the sim is kinda of random but i just did this for money so please dont complain if your lower than you were in the draft. Also I think there is going to be alot of talent in this draft and it could be the best i ever seen for the comets Tongue
