Prospect Profile: Jordan Addesi

Jordan Addesi: Left Wing / Sarnia Sting / 6’2″190 / 3/15/96

OHL Draft Ranking: 60th Overall

Selected: 4th Round, 64th Overall

2012 Club Team: Vaughan Kings

Addessi is a skilled forward who shows strong potential. He is a huge wildcard based on the fact that he has missed so much time this year. He shows a nice mix of size and mobility, with a high ceiling. He shows good mobility and agility, with above average agility and footwork. He shows a willingness to play a strong, aggressive game, and plays well down low and along the boards. He shows good vision with the puck, and shows good long-term projectable vision, but needs to work on his decision making with the puck. He has a high complete level, and always seems to bring a high level of energy to the ice whenever he touches the ice. He has missed the second half of the season with an injury, so his health will be something to look at, and could be a big factor in where he is selected. He projects out as a strong top 6 forward with leadership and intangibles. At one point he was considered a top 20 selection, however his injury and health doubts saw his  status. He could be a nice little steal for the Sting if he regains his pre-injury form.
