2016 NHL Draft prospect profile: Dennis Cholowski, another BCHL standout

Dennis Cholowski is another prospect this year gaining some first-round interest out of the BCHL. Playing with the Chilliwack Chiefs, he showed great improvement in his sophomore year with the team, putting him on the scouting radar.

Committed to St. Cloud State in the NCAA next season - the same school from which the Canadiens signed Charlie Lindgren - he is obviously a few years away from the NHL. But as he is a good sized puck-moving defenceman, he should be gone before the midway point of the second round this year.
