WTAF? Woolley scores his first OHL goal for London and it rains down teddy bears?
Like hundreds? Can't wait to see what this kid is like in 2 years. Will be 6'6" 225.
I bet he's pumped to come to LA for camp, especially knowing Kaleb Lawrence as a London teammate.

Jared seriously needs to make a fridge magnet of this and keep this image in his wallet....his motivator. And in a few years, respond with a an image of his first NHL goal with the Kings. The account will probably be down, though.

A good example of utterly meaningless analytics because there is no usable sample size. Definitely a pick based on the eye test and feedback from coaching staff. He’s a superb swing to take.

I'd love to see a list of guys who they had aS "sure nhlers" who never made it past the AHL. Hope he proves them all wrong.

ROUND 6

Jared Woolley, Los Angeles Kings, 164th overall


Woolley is a towering prospect (6-foot-4, 207 pounds) who split time between the London Knights and their Jr. B affiliate, the St. Thomas Stars in the GOJHL.

Woolley is a player who had to be watched closely. He’s a bit green, but he moves well, sees the ice, outlets pucks accurately, and has some bite physically. His size, and length, are assets he uses in the defensive zone to kill plays and keep opponents to the perimeter.

Woolley will take time, but he ticks off three important boxes for me at this stage of the draft: He skates well, thinks the game responsibly, and competes every time his number is called. I believe there’s some underdeveloped offence waiting to go to another level in his game as well.
