The Thrashers used their first pick of the first round to select Zach Bogosian.

Here’s what TSN said:

 A physical specimen who plays every shift with unbridled passion and aggression, Bogosian likes to make things happen. He has a cannon for a shot, gets physically involved at every opportunity and is a natural born leader, not unlike his father Ike, who was a co-captain of the Syracuse University football team.

And Sportsnet’s mock draft:

 He might not be as ready now as Doughty given that he’s barely 18, but he might also project to be bigger and better down the road. His junior GM calls him a budding Chris Pronger. Normally we dismiss that, but his junior GM also had Pronger in Peterborough and may well know of what he speaks.:

Here’s what ISS said about his strengths and weaknesses:

1. Very Competitive

2. Skating / Mobility
