COLTEN TEUBERT

Height: 6'3"
Weight: 185 lbs.

Comparable: Shea Weber

From TSN: The hard-rock defenceman, who draws comparisons to Shea Weber and Adam Foote, is as competitive and feisty a player as there is in this draft. What he lacks in offensive upside, he makes up for with his ferocity and defensive prowess. He relishes the opportunity to go head-to-head with the other teams' top players. By all accounts, there is no love lost between him and Kyle Beach.

From NHL Central Scouting: Colten is a smooth skating defenseman, who can skate the puck out of trouble and can jump up the ice with the puck. Has the ability to take charge of the game.

This is the KICK-ASS D-MAN i've been talking about and waiting for.
This is turning out to be a great draft.

Great job Deano.
My hats off to you today.
No hard feelings.

Don't screw it up with crappy signings.
