We’re coming down to the virtual wire, and the big names are on the board. Alex Tuch, the first round draft pick from 2014, comes in at number seven on our list.
Tuch is getting to be a household name for Wild faithful, and the winger looks to be challenging for NHL minutes this season. The Boston College player garnered 62 points in 77 games, and is hoping to skip the AHL on his journey to professional hockey.
That will be a hard reach for the winger, but not impossible. Injuries or finding good form could see Tuch in the big leagues for a long term basis.
