kelownabomberfan Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 So we take Colby Barlow in the first round, of Owen Sound. Apparently he was the youngest captain in his team's history, and also a smart cookie being named the OHL Scholastic player of the year. Love how Sportsnet misspelled "Scholastic" in the chron on screen ("Scolastic") - oh the irony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOBomberFan Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 18. Winnipeg Jets -- Colby Barlow, LW, Owen Sound (OHL) NHL Central Scouting ranking: No. 12 (North American skaters) Barlow (6-0, 195) can beat defenders with his speed or strength in shielding them off 1-on-1 in tight quarters. He also can handle physical play along the boards and could develop into a top-nine forward at the NHL level. The 18-year-old led Owen Sound with 79 points (46 goals, 33 assists), 13 power-play goals and 12 game-winning goals in 59 games as captain and received the Bobby Smith Trophy, awarded to the Ontario Hockey League's scholastic player of the year. Barlow also led Owen Sound with three goals on nine shots in four OHL playoff games. Mark F, JCon, Stickem and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 Wow. That's a really interesting pick. You don't necessarily see World Juniors starting goalies go that late. Who knows if he'll turn out, but it's a good pick at that spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
