According to everything I've seen about the Kitchener training camp Jeremy Williams was by far the best foward there (scoring 6 pts in 5 games). I've seen him (both last year and at the camp) described as a small, fiesty, gritty player who makes those around him better. Sounds a bit like a former Leafs captain not saying he'll ever be that good, just sounds like the same kind of player). Williams should have another strong offensive season in the WHL this year before moving out to St. Johns for the 2004-2005 season (where I'd like to see him paired up with Sagat, who he played well with at the camp).

I said it when the Leafs drafted him and I'll say it again, I think Williams will end up being a good top 6 foward for the Leafs in a few years and a late round steal.

He was a 7th round pick, right? I know one of him and Sagat went 7th and 8th round.

Williams was 7th round. I think Sagat was 3rd round if I'm not mistaken.

Williams went in the 7th round, Sagat went in the 3rd.

What the hell was I thinking Sagat was an 8th round pick. I swore I read it somewhere. Hopefully Sagat is worth the 3rd rounder.

Apparently they clicked well together at the camp, hopefully next year (when both should be in St.Johns) they can click together again. The could have really, really lucked out if these two guys can play well together at the AHL and NHL level - I know that is really looking foward and probably won't happen, but hey its possible.
