Abeltshauser has been steadily improving his numbers each year (he is the benefit of a good team), and that is what you want to see out of a prospect.

The rate he is scoring at in junior, combined with the fact he is a big boy (6'5 225lbs) makes him a potential NHL defenseman to me. I think he could be a #4-6 D-man on a NHL team that plays on the 2nd PP unit if it all works out for him.

Regardless, he is on my "watch list"
