SHAWN P. ROARKE'S

22 Buffalo Sabres Brock Nelson, C, Warroad (HIGH-MN)

SKINNY: Known for his skating ability, he might surprise once he plays against tougher competition.

BRAD HOLLAND'S
22 Buffalo Sabres Brock Nelson, C, Warroad (HIGH-MN)

SKINNY: Three of past four first-rounders have been D, so Sabres might look to Notre Dame-bound forward here.

We need to continue building up the forward depth

I love Brock Nelson as a prospect. Big, strong kid. Reminds people of a Joe Thornton. He powers people and has excellent hands. Btw, Brad Holland is wrong in the above article, Nelson is going to play hockey for North Dakota, not Notre Dame. He must have seen UND and figured it was Notre Dame.
