Nico Hischier ist im Dezember-Ranking von sportsnet.ca neu auf Platz 3 für den NHL-Draft 2017 gelistet. Macht schon Freude zu sehen, dass ein Schweizer Stürmer derart dominant auftritt - und dabei hat er körperlich noch relativ viel Potenzial und Luft nach oben.

The Halifax Mooseheads centre moves up to the third spot on our list as his stock continues to rise through the season. While there were early concerns about his durability, he’s been whacked, slashed and hit, and still produces game in and game out (as of this writing he sits second in QMJHL scoring with 47 points in 29 games). Added bonus: he’s doing this on one of the youngest teams in the entire CHL and doesn’t have the supporting cast that other elite Mooseheads skaters like Nathan MacKinnon, Jonathan Drouin anf Nicolaj Ehlers had.
