Panthers look to the USHL, take Christopher Wilkie in sixth round

Florida Panthers GM Dale Tallon has taken a number of players committed to play for the University of North Dakota, and has to hope that Tri-City Storm forward Christopher Wilkie follows the trend of Rocco Grimaldi and Corban Knight, and becomes a quality prospect with solid NHL potential.

Here's his scouting report from Future Considerations:

Wilkie is a fleet footed prospect who is up to top speed in a flash, controls the puck well and has a solid shot. So shifty on his feet, he can make a defender look foolish and thread the needle with a strong pass all in a split second.
