U.S. National Under-18 coach John Wroblewski talks about some of the top American players eligible for the 2019 NHL Entry Draft

With the 1st Round of the 2019 NHL Entry Draft set to get underway in Vancouver tomorrow night we revisit our chat with U.S. National Under-18 Team coach John Wroblewski, who we spoke with on The Illegal Curve Hockey Show back on June 1st about some of the top prospects he coached who are eligible for the upcoming draft.

As you would expect Coach Wrobo (as he is known) had plenty to say about these top prospects and you can listen to his comments here:

On how Jack Hughes has handled the expectations and pressure of being the top prospect for the upcoming draft.

On Centre Alex Turcotte’s versatility.

What stands out about Centre Trevor Zegras’ game?

What makes Forward Cole Caufield such a dangerous goal scorer?

How would he sum up Defenceman Cam York’s game?

And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
