Nice read on Al's son, Ryan MacInnis 6'3.5'' center 185lbs. Kitchener coach compares him to Weiss.

Might be interesting if the Flames picked him up with a 2nd/3rd round pick. I know some scouting reports have him challenging as a 1st round pick, but unless his offensive numbers pick up it might be tough for some teams to justify using a 1st rounder on him.
Quote:
Rangers coach Troy Smith is willing to mention MacInnis in the same breath with a NHL veteran who came through the OHL.
"The last few games in particular Ryan's starting to move his feet more and create some offensive opportunities.
"He's kind of like a Stephen Weiss [who played his junior hockey with the Plymouth Whalers]," Smith says. "He's a very smart player. He's able to distribute the puck very well. I think he's going to be a good two-way centre. A guy who can put up points but also play in the last minute [of tight games]."
