Morgan Frost
Position: Centre
Height: 5-foot-11

Frost entered the draft ranked as the 31st North American skater on the heels of a solid season for the Soo Greyhounds. Frost posted 20 goals and 62 points in 67 games played.
At only 5-foot-11 and 172 pounds, Frost will need to bulk up and utilize his speed and offensive skill set to translate his game into the up-tempo style of the NHL.
