31 Teams in 31 Days - Anaheim Ducks

We have reached the end, 31 days later!

1. Mathew Hill - Barrie Colts
Was a bit surprised to see Hill drafted this year. The big 6'3 defender does have some promising pro qualities though. He moves well for a bigger defender and he's already quite solid in his own end. With that reach, mobility, and likely a burgeoning physical game, he could end up developing into a very good stay at home defender at the OHL level. Where I am less convinced is in his offensive potential. Mind you Barrie was a rebuilding club this year and Hill was thrust into some bigger minutes later in the year, I thought he struggled with the puck and his decision making. How much skill he possesses and whether he can be someone who can eventually use his mobility to move the puck remains to be seen. He'll return to Barrie next year and likely continue to play a top 4 role, although isn't likely to receive any powerplay time. With an improving team around him, I'd like to see Hill in the 25 point range next year.
