The Canuck Way continues to look into prospects eligible for the 2015 NHL Draft. Today, we look at Canadian winger Nick Merkley.
Player: Nick Merkley
Position: Center/Right Wing
2014-15 Team: Kelowna Rockets (WHL)
ISS Ranking: 19
Although the Kelowna Rockets couldn’t finish the job and win the 2015 Memorial Cup, that didn’t stop Merkley from having a great tournament to go along with his already great season. That season and long run in the playoffs should help him dispel the negatives some people place on short players.
