ISS December 2016

 

The Brandon Wheat Kings Centre, Nolan Patrick, closes 2016 on top at #1, in the December release of the ISS Top 31. Rising 13 ranks to #8, the biggest riser within this month’s release was Halifax Mooseheads Centre, Nico Hischier. While fellow QMJHL winger, Maxime Comtois descended nine ranks to #16.

“Hischier showed amazing offensive play throughout the month of November,” says ISS Hockey Director of Scouting Dennis MacInnis. “His accurate shot awarded him with a five and four goal night respectively. Hischier’s opponents should beware of his exceptional skill at making plays behind the net.”
