And with their final pick of the draft the scouting staff goes with some good ol'
WHL defense.
Paul Postma
is a tall, lanky defenseman who should grow into his frame once he gets into a
pro-level training program. He's played parts of three seasons with the Swift
Current Broncos (he only played four games his first year) and went from 11
points last season to 24 this past year. The WHL is the most defensive of the
three CHL leagues and it's known for producing quality defensemen. Will Postma
be another late-round gem like Garnet Exelby?
