Arizona Coyotes: Nick Merkley Player Profile
Arizona Coyotes’ #30 Draft Choice May Just Be Another Prospect With Promise
Arizona Coyotes 30th overall selection in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft on June 26th found the team selecting a talented young prospect by the name of Nick Merkley. He also appears to resemble Tom Cruise a bit… or it is just me?

He had 20 goals, and 70 assists in 72 games for the Kelowna Rockets of the WHL. With that many assists, it looks Merkley likes to pass more than shoot, but we shall see if he scores more next season.
The Arizona Coyotes had a good draft, and for Merkley to fall to them at #30, it just shows they are loading up their young prospects for success in the future.
