Is Kirby Dach the riskiest pick in the 2019 NHL Draft?

It’s time for the next edition in our series of profiles on the top prospects eligible for the Vancouver Canucks to select this year’s upcoming NHL entry draft here in Vancouver. Today, I’ll be discussing Kirby Dach, a talented centre from the Saskatoon Blades who may just be this year’s riskiest draft pick.

Dach is one of the most size-oriented players projected to be taken towards the start of this draft. Hailing from St. Albert, Alberta, he stands 6’4” and weighs approximately 198 lbs. In the past, Dach has been able to play his size to his advantage.
