The San Jose Sharks could be calling the name of 17-year-old defenseman Ronan Seeley come draft time. Having an August birthday, Seeley is on the younger side of the spectrum for this year’s draft-eligible players.
This season, Seeley played for the Everett Silvertips of the WHL. For the Silvertips, Seeley produced 32 points (three goals, 29 assists) and a plus/minus of +22 in 63 games.
His offensive production isn’t anything special, however, Seeley’s discipline and ability to stay out of the penalty box is impeccable. He only had six penalty minutes this season.
Strengths
Seeley’s biggest asset is his skating ability.
