He's not stylistically similar to Larkin, though. Larkin is more of a hang onto the puck guy. White is more of a go to the net and wait for the puck kind of guy. They'd be a helluva duo, actually.

I think he meant more in terms of a guy that is ranked for mid-late 1st round but he'll be a can't miss type guy in a year or 2.
 
Does this guy shave regularly? I know it's a strange question but I'm just wondering about his physical maturity.

Super impressive scores in the combine. It's going to be real interesting to see how high he gets taken.

He hasn't hit full physical maturity at all yet. He isn't even back to peak strength for the size he is due to losing a lot of weight all season because of issues from mono. He is super strong for the size he is but will be stronger by end of summer. He is highly explosive as you can see by his scores. He has a ton of upside physically still. His frame will hold closer to 200 easily than the current 180.

Yep, I agree with all of this. Seems not a lot of people know that he struggled with mono this year and this is what has caused him to drop off from top 10 discussions.

Great, thanks for the info. For some reason I thought I saw him with very slight stubble over his entire face during the U-18 or some other tourney.

If he hasn't hit full maturity yet he should be quite the monster once he fills out. He should be a fun player to follow.

A wrist injury as well. IMO, that wrist injury is a bigger concern that his draft season point totals. If that wrist injury was just a one time thing, that and mono more than explain his statistical drop this year, and he could be a steal.

His numbers would of been better if he was the first option at center on his team i assume?

He suffered through Mono along with numerous other injuries throughout the year. Ottawa fans are going to love this pick. Think Patrice Bergeron and this years Dylan Larkin.
 
Of all the teams White had to be drafted by the Sens... God dammit.
 
White and Chabot is a very underrated but incredibly solid haul for the Sens in the 1st round

And as a Leafs fan I can't believe I'm admitting that

Gary Bettman got snubbed by Senators Colin White

You don't have to like Bettman, but deliberately being a dick to the guy who oversees your likely place of employment seems both stupid and juvenile. Wonder if his manager/team President had a quite word in his ear afterwards
 
You do realize bettman is the first hand he shook coming onto the stage right?

you can make out bettman said "again, .......(not sure what the rest was for sure)"
