Top 10 Small Players in the draft

We continue our countdown to the draft today with the top 10 small players.  Some of the top players over the years have been on the small side such as Brandon Kozun, Brendan Gallagher and Tyler Ennis amongst many others.  In the past Theo Fleury, Dale Derkatch and Todd Holt were some of the best scorers the league has ever seen.  Slowly, the thought is starting to sway away from just relying on the big sized kids.
