4th Round: SETH HELGESON

6' 5" 220 USHL SIOUX CITY

Defensemen

He’s the highest rated player available from the USHL in advance of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft according to ISS in their first monthly release of the season and that sets the bar very high. Fortunately for Sioux City defenseman Seth Helgeson, he’s a pretty big guy.

Listed at 6’5 and 220 lbs, Helgeson is a late 1990-born player so will be one of the oldest players available for NHL teams in June. Often times that will give teams pause, but other teams see that as simply the chance at getting a slightly more developed player than a comparable player born 11 months later.

In any case it will be his size and physical play that scouts notice first because there is abundance of both where Helgeson is concerned.
