Undrafted Prospect Antonio Barksdale on likely landing spots pre-draft.

[CrookedAnt 78]

Antonio Barksdale debuted in the Junior Showcase Tournament for The Brigade. Prior to the tournament there weren't a lot of teams looking at him, but with how the leaderboards have panned out; it's quite interesting what GM's are saying around the league. There's a stirring flame to this fire so to speak with the young man from Italy averaging top five in most categorys in offensive, and defensive categories. He mentioned something about basketball, but said that dream went away with this tournament. He wants to solidify himself as a hockey great, and has the drive to do so it appears. The Brigade weren't struggling without him, but it's clear that he's helped along with some of his teammate's stand out performances. They are doing a lot better than expected, and with one of the rising Center prospects- their run is bound to get a little hotter on those skates.

 

Antonio has said that he likes the idea of playing in Miami, but talks aren't only limited to them. Some other potential landing spots are any that needs a center, he said- but his list is as stated below.

1. Miami Maruaders

2. San Diego Marlins

3. Houston Bulls.

4. Las Vegas Aces

5. Philadelphia Reapers.

 

He clearly has a favorite here topping the list. He's stated the reasons he wants to go to Miami are one he could improve the defense, and offensive flow on the court, but two- it's a good place for a young, and growing player. He's not shy to say the money he's got allows a lavish lifestyle for a young man in the Florida heat.

I do not know much about hockey and was winging it as the kids say.

 

Rinks has been added to my vocabulary.
