I was looking today and Ekblad had more points than Doughty did in their draft seasons.

His 23 goals in his draft year are the most of any d-man taken in the top 10 (from the CHL) since 2003 (that is as far as I looked back).

He was also named the best offensive and best defensive defenseman in the OHL this season.

I actually think his offensive game gets underrated at times.
