One more pick until the B's are on the clock. I love the idea of more speed on this team, so Kempe is appealing on paper.
McKenzie's best available:

Centres who play every situation in the game, are involved in all areas on the ice and contribute with and without the puck are in high demand. The cliche, '200-foot player' applies to Jared. His versatility and sense is excellent.
#21 - Nikita Scherbak (LW, Saskatoon, WHL):
Excellent scoring instincts and he arrives at the right times to take full advantage. Awareness of how to exploit opportunities is very good and is vigilant and alert in this regard. A versatile player who can play off strengths of others.
