Rhett Rakhshani, RW
University of Denver
New York Islanders
Drafted 2006 4th round (100th overall)
Rhett Rakhshani, now in his second year with the University of Denver, is right on pace to match last season's efforts, in which he scored 36 points and 38 penalty minutes in 40 games. This year, through 20 games played, Rakhshani has scored eight goals, nine assists for 17 points and 30 penalty minutes.
Rakhshani continues to develop at a steady pace. He is also seeing some significant time on the special team units, which is enhancing his abilities as a playmaker. Rakhshani is also coming through for his teammates when it matters most - he's tied for third on the team in game-winning goals. He's third on the team in shots on goal.
Right now, at this stage in his career, Rakhshani is a solid college-level player. He will have to continue working hard in developing his weaknesses, particularly his speed at being able to read plays, both offensively and defensively.
