Porter Martone just looks like he was born to be a hockey player. The prototypical power forward, he is a very skilled, very sturdy winger that piled up the points in the OHL last year as captain of the Brampton Steelheads. He was just too much to handle at that level, and despite still being raw in some aspects of his game, there just seems to be such a high floor with Martone. At 6’3, 207 pounds straight out of the draft, he should be able to withstand the NHL’s physicality immediately, whereas that is a concern with other forwards, you can totally checkmark that box here, and his hands and shot are just as impressive, especially for a man of his size.
