Like his teammate Alex Nylander, Michael McLeod is one of the hopefuls that should be gone before the second half of the first round this year. As one of the more improved prospects in the Ontario Hockey League, he really made a name for himself this year, forcing scouts around the NHL to take notice.
Since joining the OHL Ranks with the Mississauga Steelheads, he has developed very nicely. In his rookie year, he put up an unspectacular 12 goals and 29 total points in 63 games. One year later, he more than doubled that total in just 57 games, scoring 21 goals and 61 total points.
