Potential 2nd Day Prospects at the 2017 NHL Draft to Keep an Eye On

With the 2017 NHL Entry Draft just a few days away, I wanted to touch base on a few prospects that we didn't profile but could be on the Devils radar in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, depending on how the draft shakes out. A quick reminder that you can view all of our 2017 Draft profiles here. Let's take a look at the forwards first, then the defensemen.

RW Kailer Yamamoto - DOB: 9/29/98 - HT: 5'9 - WT: 160 lbs. - Team: Spokane (WHL) - Central Scouting Rank: NA-17 - 2016-17: 65 GP 42-57-99, +14, 46 PIM - EliteProspects Page

Reading through multiple draft publications and watching highlights, it's clear to see that Yamamoto has talent that is worthy of a 1st round pick.
