11: Knights Kelowna Knights  - Aleksandr Iskandrov

Aleksandr Iskandrov is a speedy, physical, playmaking center, and as we all know,  we love centers. Would be very easy to enable him with goalscorers who can match his speed. Iskandrov finishes his checks but will need to improve his shooting if he wants to be a more consistent, independent player. At the time of the draft, this pick was seen as a reach, with some GMs wanting Aleksandr in the 3rd round at the earliest. 19 games in, Iskandrov has 4 points. There's definitely the point to be made in regards to his luck as he's shooting at a measly 4%.

24: Knights Kelowna Knights  - Ben Waters Jr.

The next selection for the Kelowna Knights saw Ben Waters Jr. to the interior. When we talk about raw talents, Waters Jr. is definitely one of them. Waters is incredibly adept at both sides of the game, touting a very 200ft complete play. Ideally, he works a little more on his positioning as he may find himself in contested shooting lanes. Waters Jr is off to a great start with 9 points in 19 games played. There are questions as to whether or not this is sustainable as he is currently shooting at 26.32%.

37: Knights Kelowna Knights (via CAR) - double lutz

Double Lutz may be a rookie but he's been an absolute boulder this season so far. At the moment, he clocks in 20 minutes per game on average. Despite this, he hasn't seen many improvements to his game at this time. Lutz tends to play more defensively than offensively, but despite this, he has as many points as the 1st round selection. If you were to ask me, an independent writer with no bias, I would say that something is a little............................ sus.

38: Knights Kelowna Knights  - Tommy Westbrook (But this time i upd

This has to be the best pick in the draft, in my opinion. 5 points in 19 games, two way center. Definitely has a better shot than some of the centers ahead of him in the depth chart. Westbrook has seen a little time on the powerplay, notching a single powerplay point. Like every other player here, the name of the game is to let these players develop and become more well rounded. Westbrook has the potential to be one of the greatest utility, 24 tool toolbox kinda players.

Sash Sharnaz

Traded for from St Louis, Sash Sharnaz is one of the aforementioned speedy goalscorers that can mesh well with any of the above selected players. boasting a very hyper offensive style, you can expect Sharnaz to produce as long as you stick him with a centerman who has eyes, which shouldn't be very hard. When Sharnaz is on the ice the coach has the tendency to allow an overload of shots, Sharnaz has a total of 38 shots on the season, at 8%. 9 points on the season, but he could have more with top 6 time, as well as power play minutes.

As I said before, the Kelowna Knights have a great pool provided these players improve. Theyre in a playoff position, and with a deluge of players on their way to becoming great, the future looks wonderful in Kelowna, a city that otherwise looks very boring and drab.
