47. William Nicholl - Center/Wing - London Knights
The classic London Knights slow play kind of guy. Nicholl is being used in a variety of different situations because he's playing hard, but a lack of consistent ice time is perhaps masking the kind of upside he might possess. OHL rookie, so we don't have a ton to base it on either. Curious to see how he looks down the stretch.

Decent pick.

Maybe hoping this kid takes on a bigger role with London next season? Two Knights as someone else pointed out, they surely tapped the brains of the Hunter brothers in that organization I'd imagine.

6 goals as an 18 year old. One of the few minus players on the whole Knights team. Rick does know there are leagues in NA beside the OHL right?
He was on the 4th line. No PK or PP time. He will have a bigger role this season

Reminds me of Cliff Pu who was a similar skilled, slight young player on a stacked Memorial Cup level London Knights team. Albeit a higher ranked prospect. Look to have solid upside as a young depth piece on a stacked team. But challenged to take a next step at pro level competition.

London's a hockey factory. Decent late round swing. Long, long road to pro.
