Ryan Shea was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks in the fourth round of the 2015 NHL draft. If this is the first time you’re hearing of the 23-year-old defensemen, it’s not a big loss for the Blackhawks.
Shea played two seasons in the USHL before playing four seasons at Northeastern University. In college, he played in 149 games, where he scored 10 goals and racked up 68 assists for 78 points.
Look, at 23 years old, he is nearing the average age of hitting his “prime”. He hasn’t played a single NHL game though, so I’m not worried about losing him.
