Yesterday, the San Jose Sharks drafted Timo Meier of the Halifax Mooseheads at ninth overall. My fellow colleague wrote the general summary of him here, but in this article I’m going to break it down more extensively.
According to Eliteprospects.com, the 18-year-old right-wing/center from Switzerland can best be described as “a physically dominant winger with the ability to play in a skill or character role.” Meier is highly aware offensively, and can maneuver himself into places where he can easily make seeing eye passes or snap hard, accurate shots on net.
