Why Chase Reid at No. 2 on the Central Scouting's final ranking? We asked the bureau's director, Dan Marr, about that and more on the latest "NHL Draft Class"

[Canucks Insider @CanucksInsider]

Kirill Kudryavtsev’s second season as a pro is much different than his rookie year. Still, the 22-year-old defenceman is feeling great going into the offseason with a late boost of confidence from playing NHL games.
