With the third overall pick in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft, the Atlanta Thrashers knew that they were going to get something special. Zach Bogosian is confirming that thought.
After seeing clear-cut number one draft-pick Stephen Stamkos head to Tampa Bay, the Kings were on the clock. With the 2008 Draft crammed with defensemen, the Kings selected Drew Doughty, a Guelph Storm standout in the OHL. The Thrashers surveyed their opportunities, and landed on physical defenseman Zach Bogosian, another OHL standout. Playing with the Peterborourgh Petes, Zach was the only defenseman in the league to lead his team in points (61) and was named to the OHL First All-Star Team.
