With the 40th Pick the Islanders Select...


Aaron Ness an American defenseman out of Minnesota. Just like Trivino he wan ranked exactly where he was drafted at 40, but this is a great pick I like it the best out of all 3 picks. Scouting report:

Aaron is flamboyant and colorful. He is very quick, everything about him is quick -- his hands are quick, his feet are quick. He is a very good skater and he is gritty and physical. He'll step right in to you without fear -- he picks his spot when he does it. He's a little more polished than some of the other high school defensemen with his passing and playmaking. He is quicker than Brian Leetch was at this age and he's as fast as John-Michael Liles was at the same age.
