Meet Drew Doughty,
Los Angeles' 2008 first-round pick, who was ranked
fourth-overall by ISS heading into the draft. He is a
solid defenseman who takes care of his own end and can
join the rush and contribute offensively. Ironically,
his favorite team growing up was the Kings. According to
ISS, he is capable of logging over 25-minutes per game,
find the open man and move the puck up the ice. He's the
type of defenseman that teams build around.
