2011 Draft Watch: Jordan Fransoo

Jordan Fransoo (2011), D, Brandon

Definitely has some room on his 6-foot-2, 190-pound frame to add some muscle .. uses his stick well to back off on coming puckcarriers .. gets back quickly on defence and uses his angles well .. does a solid job keeping his man in front of him .. displays good vision and will generally find the open man in the offensive zone .. sports nice overall speed and agility .. doesn't panic at the first sign of pressure .. gets the point shot through from the point .. not hesitant to pinch in deep on the powerplay, but so far the sum of the parts aren't adding up to be a point producer .. can be a bit a nonchalant with the puck when he's skating with it behind his own blueline .. partnered with Darren Bestland .. plays on the PK .. unlikely to be a factor at the Draft.

Factoid: Chosen by the Brandon Wheat Kings in the 5th round (99th overall) of the 2008 WHL Bantam Draft.

Current Season: 28gp, 2-5-7, -7
