Pick 133 - Logan Nelson

 

It looks like Mr. Adam's bad evening keeps getting worse. That's 4 out of 5 for those keeping score at home.

1. How would you describe yourself as a player?

"I'm a fast, physical forward with skill. I work with my teammates very well and try to put the puck in the back of the net."

2. Do you try to model your game after a player in the NHL?

"Maybe a combination of (St. Louis Blues') David Backes and (Philadelphia Flyers') Claude Giroux. I like their speed, physicality, and skill."

3. Who is your favourite NHL team?

"My favourite team is the Philadelphia Flyers. I just grew up watching them a lot."

DEVINE SAYS: “Nelson is a 1993 Minnesota kid who put up good numbers, and has got a nice gritty, game; good hands. He was at our combine.”

1. Well, it's better than trying to put it in the front of the net.

2. Forget who you like, whom do you feel you most closely resemble? I'm not thinking Giroux here.

3. Bad answer - this guy will get along well with Leino.
