After trading their 2013 3rd-round pick to the New York Rangers in exchange for this year's #89 selection (29th in the 3rd round), the Nashville Predators selected another left winger, Brendan Leipsic of the WHL's Portland Winterhawks. At 5'8" and just 165 pounds, the question here will be how well he'll handle the physical aspects of professional hockey.

Leipsic's best attributes are probably his skating, speed, and energy. While he might sometimes get inconsistent results, his effort level is always consistent.

He has the talent to be a top 6 forward (probably on the second line, mind you, unless he really exceeds expectations) combined with the work ethic of a grinder.
