Minnesota freshman White featured on NHL.com

Minnesota freshman forward Pat White is featured in an article on NHL.com that talks about some of the Vancouver Canucks' top prospects. The Canucks took White with the 25th overall pick in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft.

WCHA Blog's Take: White has a chance to be one of the higher-impact freshmen in the WCHA this season. Minnesota brings back all of their forwards from last season except for Jim O'Brien, but White's talent and ability to play center should help him slide into a spot on a scoring line sooner rather than later.
