DALLAS - The Colorado Avalanche continued their skill-heavy draft approach when they took the underrated Tyler Weiss in the fourth round of the NHL Draft with the 109th overall selection.
Weiss played for the United States National Team Development Program last year and competed both in the DP and in the USHL. He was a bit overshadowed by the more high profile players on his team, limiting his opportunities in his draft year to really show what kind of player he truly is.
As a skilled playmaker, Weiss is a guy who likes to get his teammates involved and create offense.
