Canucks are proud to select Logan Brown © - Niagara (OHL - RL) 6'4" 209LB Centre (16 years old) "A high potential scorer who has the tools to be one of the best in his age group. Son of former NHL defenceman Jeff Brown. Tall, rangy pivot with smart hands and a blazing shot. Eats up the ice with huge, silky strides and boasts elite top speed. More meticulous with the puck, especially in traffic, and also developed better patience and focus on scoring areas, exploiting his extended reach and gift for creating shooting lanes. Lethal when driving off the boards and exploiting mesmerising one-on-one moves. An intuitive defender, has made steady gains in his work away from the puck as well as his overall physical play. Possesses a lethal shot, a tricky release point and elite velocity. Still lacks that natural mean streak to fully complete the 'power forward' equation. Continues to make gains in his consistency from game to game, showing more intensity and aggression as he matures. Has all the tools to be a frontline OHL player, given his rare combination of size, speed and puck skills." (Sean Lafortune, 2014) http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=248391
