The Rangers have agreed to terms with the 79th pick in the 2015 NHL Draft. Sergey Zborovskiy is a Russian-born right-handed defenseman with tremendous size.
There are some vocal critics about Zborovskiy and his ultimate potential. Some believe that he does not (and will not) possess the ability to play in the NHL. A word that has been frequently used to describe the 19 year old’s game in prospect analysis is “raw”.
I spoke to a Western Canadian scout recently who said he sees no NHL potential in Zborovskiy. I don't understand NYR's fascination with him.
