Hudon could end up like Gallagher....a 5th round steal. Wonder if he will may team next year if good camp?
He's now our only prospect who has not yet reached his 19th birthday, so he is still very young. Next year will be big for his development, in that he can go back and dominate in the Q and secure a place on the national junior team (too bad about that darn injury in the pre-tournament period).
I don't think there is any rush with him at all. Like Gallagher in juniors (his skating was not great when we drafted him), he could also benefit from improving his foot speed which will make the transition to pro hockey easier, and also help him somewhat avoid serious injury as he has been injured a fair bit already.
Gallagher may not have straight line foot speed but he spins like Brian Boitano behind the net and slips into the crease with the puck like a triple salcow.
