Final Top 30 ISS Draft Rankings

International Scouting Service (ISS) released its final pre-draft rankings ahead of the 2016 NHL Draft and two Penticton Vees are inside the top 20. Graduating forward Tyson Jost is ranked 9th and graduating defenceman Dante Fabbro is ranked 19th. Fabbro and Jost are on the verge of a very rare feat, which is one BCHL team having two first round draft picks in the same year. The only time it was done was in 2004, when the Salmon Arm Silverback’s Travis Zajac and Kris Chucko were selected by New Jersey and Calgary respectively.
Below is the ISS Top 30, highlighting the rankings for the top 30 prospects:
