Scouting Report
Carter Amico is a big boy with good skating ability and covers a lot of ground in the defensive zone. What he lacks in offensive ability, he makes up for in defensive and stick positioning. Amico has the makings of a shutdown defenseman who can be a real asset on the penalty kill. A good NHL comp might be Toronto Maple Leafs’ defenseman Brandon Carlo.
Projection:
Second Round – #51 Boston
