The deepest NHL draft in recent memory is upon us, and the Minnesota Wild has an opportunity to select one of many promising centers, but Colin White fits the Wild’s system with a solid 2-way game. After selecting Alex Tuch last season, the Wild should have no problem dipping back in to the USNDTP pool.
Standing 6 feet tall and weighing in at 183 pounds, White’s biggest knock is likely his size. I don’t think that detracts the Minnesota Wild, who need to find a #2 center to replace Mikko Koivu in a few years.
