It doesn't get much more raw than a player like Mitchell Mattson. Mattson, the Flames #126 pick, will play his way to Calgary by way of the NCAA. The Grand Rapids HS product with skate with the defending NCAA Champion University of North Dakota Fighting Hawks this fall. One thing Mattson has going for him is that the Fighting Eagles are a young squad. 7 upper class men dot a roster filled with 25 under class man, so Mattson could get some decent ice time.
