Maple Leafs' Top 25 Under 25: Andrew Nielsen works his way to No. 22

A big leap forward puts Nielsen on the map this year.

It's still very early yet, but the Leafs' 2015 draft is looking pretty fine a year out. Our next pick on this year's T25U25 was drafted 65th overall last year, and his subsequent work has made the Leafs look smart for picking him. Left-shooting Alberta defender Andrew Nielsen rises from universally unranked in 2015 to be this year's #22.

The Results

Nielsen finished with 50 points (out of a total 350), coming in well ahead of Carl Grundstrom and well behind #21.
