What would Sam Dickinson potentially bring to the table if he was selected 13th overall?
“Dickinson is a very complete, projectable top-four defenceman who has size, high-end skating and a developing offensive game that has really rounded into form this season. Last year, he stepped right onto a deep Knights blue line at 16 (rare) and played bigger minutes by year’s end than some drafted guys (rarer), including in key situations in the playoffs. This season, he has played a leading role in all facets of the game on another strong London team (which has included successfully quarterbacking one of the power-play units and developing his shot into more of a weapon to nearly hit 20 goals).”

“There isn’t any doubt that Dickinson can be a very impactful top pairing defenseman. He’s a player that can be relied on in any situation and eat minutes, be it on the power play or when you need to protect a lead. He’s going to be a player that will get the job done. His strong defensive game is going to make it tough for opposing players to go up against him and if his offense translates to the pro-level, he could be even more dangerous. His play is very reminiscent of Florida Panthers defenseman Aaron Ekblad as he’s been a big impact player for them.”
