Thrashers draft center Evander Kane No. 4 overal
By George Henry, Associated Press Writer
DULUTH, Ga. — Tell Evander Kane that he lacks the size to play next season for the Atlanta Thrashers, and the 18-year-old doesn't exactly agree.
"I worked hard to get bigger coming into my draft year, and I think it was a benefit when I played last year," Kane said. "I'm just really excited about playing for the Thrashers, and I'm eager to get down there and get going."
The Thrashers chose Kane with the No. 4 overall pick of the NHL entry draft on Friday night.
Named by his father for Atlanta-based boxer Evander Holyfield, Kane intends to make the Thrashers' roster out of training camp by adding more bulk to his 6-foot-1, 180-pound frame.

Well he said to be some that might take a few years to be ready. As that was the downside as it not something that will help ILYA this Season.
