No. 10, Florida, Owen Tippett, right wing, Mississauga (OHL)
Tippett (6-0, 203 pounds) has a lethal shot, but he’s been labeled as a defensive liability.
Craig Button said on TSN.ca in a draft preview that Tippett is the “best pure goal scorer in the draft. He can beat goaltenders from 35-40 feet with just an exceptional shot.”
Did the Red Wings make a mistake by skipping Tippett?
No. 9, Detroit, Michael Rasmussen, center, Tri-City (WHL)
"This could be the ultimate sleeper of the draft," said NHL analyst Pierre McGuire.
Rasmussen is 6-foot-6, 221 pounds and is known for his presence around the net.
