The next wave of WHL stars will be selected tomorrow in Calgary during the league's Bantam Draft. In the past players like Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Brayden Coburn, Kyle Chipchura and Gilbert Brule have gone first overall, so it doesn't always mean said player will be a super star. Here now is our top 22 compiled through several different lists we have received.
The strangest fact about this year's draft: for the second straight year a 'Brian Williams' from the LA Selects could get drafted. Last year Tri City took Brian Williams late and recently signed him...we can only hope Bob Tory goes back to the Selects to take Williams this year and they some day play together.
