The Saginaw Spirit have four players named to NHL Central Scouting's 'Players to watch' list for the 2016 NHL draft... The November list was announced yesterday.

 

Spirit goal tender Evan Cormier, along with defensemen Markus Niemelainen and Keaton Middleton all received B-ratings, which indicate a possible second-to-third round selection in the 2016 NHL draft in Buffalo, NY next June. 

 

Second-year forward Tye Felhaber received a C-rating which indicates a possible fourth-to-sixth round selection in the 2016 NHL draft. 

 

There were a total of 62 players from the ontario hockey league listed on the November 'players to watch' list. There were 11 OHL skaters who received an A-rating, which suggests a possible first-round selection in the 2016 NHL draft. 

 

The Spirit will head down I-75 to take on rival's the Flint Firebirds tonight for their fourth meeting this season.
