It has been three years since Kyle Dubas drafted the prototypical Zippy Little Winger from the Peterborough Petes, but Nick Robertson seems stuck in time on our Top 25 rankings; not moving up, while being leapfrogged by newer draft picks.
A combination of terrible luck with injuries and the pandemic cutting AHL games and costing him valuable development time and experience has left Robertson a question mark to many. He’s certainly still a great prospect, but now about to turn 21, all these events have left Robertson looking like he’s standing still beside a group of hot-shot prospects quickly climbing the ranks.
