In continuing on with my series of 2020 NHL Entry Draft profiles, I headed west to Prince Albert to break down the game of forward Ozzy Wiesblatt. I’ll admit off the bat that I’ve caught myself having a bias against WHL players in the past. I think they can be overhyped at times for playing in such a physical league, and I’m seeing that bias come around again this year (e.g. Jake Neighbours).
But I’ve been steadily impressed with Wiesblatt’s game and think he should be a serious option for Nashville in the second round.
Previous profiles of entry draft prospects can be found above, as well as my initial top-31 ranking of eligible prospects.
