Don Cherry, for the seventh-straight year, suffered defeat at the hands of Bobby Orr at the annual BMO CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game in Vancouver yesterday.
The annual game brings together the top 40 draft-eligible prospects from around the CHL, selected by all 30 NHL teams. NHL Central Scouting then takes those 40 players and divides them into two even teams.
This year's game was interesting, and not for the usual reason of having stars like Connor McDavid participate. In fact, the expected top three picks (Auston Matthews, Jesse Puljujarvi and Patrick Laine) all play in Europe.
It was interesting to see who was going to impress.
