Steven Stamkos is No. 1


I know it’s been a busy day, but wanted to make sure to pass along the fact that Hockey’s Future has selected Steven Stamkos as the No. 1 prospect in it’s annual Top 50 list to start the season.

After watching Stamkos in the Sun game, 2 things were immediately clear. This kid is quick as a heartbeat, and the rest of the guys better pick up the pace. Two plays in the 3rd period stood out. 1st was on a PP when he rocketed a shot that Lundqvist blocked and no one was in front for the rebound ... I don’t think his teammates were expecting a shot. 2nd was when he carried the puck from the blue line down the right side with a D-man hanging off him and managed a GOOD wrister, while skating full speed. Some might say he needs to wait for the play to set up. I say the others better be ready to kick it in gear so they can take advantage of some rebound goals and help themselves to some assists. I liked his physical play too. Go kid GO!

Good to see him ranked ahead of Price and Turris. Let’s hope he produces better than them as well…
