Summerside’s Noah Dobson has caught the attention of National Hockey League scouts and agents. The Acadie-Bathurst Titan defenceman has moved into sixth spot on Sportsnet’s NHL draft chart according to its December rankings.

“No one player has opened more eyes since the start of the season. He’s experienced a meteoric rise up everyone’s list,” the sportscaster’s analysts observed. They are high on his size, skating and his ability to pace the game.
