The accolades for Nashville Predators prospects continue to roll in. 2008 1st-round pick Colin Wilson is the Hockey East player of the week, and leads Boston University, the top-ranked team in U.S. college hockey, in scoring. The New York Daily News chimes in with a profile this evening, setting his career so far in context with that of his father, former NHL’er Carey Wilson. Quoth Jack Parker, his coach at BU:
“He is, no question, one of our catalysts. Colin is more of a physical player as well; he’s a real good offensive player that can make plays and create for his linemates, but he can bang and he can protect the puck. He’s a power forward with hands.”

As a student at BU, it’s great to see most of Colin’s games. He is an incredible player, and a nice guy too when I’ve gotten the chance to talk to him. He just seems to see the ice so well and really takes control of the game when he is out there. He is also one of the few top prospects I’ve seen that has an NHL-ready physique. I’d love to see him stay at BU for another year, but if he keeps up this kind of play, it sure doesn’t seem likely.
