So far, it looks like a pretty good call. By the end of this season -- with two years of eligibility remaining -- he was the league's all-time leading goal scorer and ranked eighth in points. He also had a Canadian junior player-of-the-year award and two world junior gold medals. But for all his accomplishments, and after years under the microscope, scouts began to look for holes in Tavares' game. Skating, which even Tavares acknowledges could improve, was their biggest criticism. But he also came under fire for not leading London to the Memorial Cup, even though no other player rated in the top 15 led their team to the title either. When Hedman moved ahead of him in the draft rankings prior to the world juniors, Tavares answered by earning MVP honours as he led Canada past Sweden in the final. He regained his No. 1 status but, as the draft approaches, it's assumed that whose name is called first will depend upon whether the Islanders prefer to begin their rebuild with a goal scorer or a 6-foot-6 defenceman. Even if Hedman goes first, it doesn't mean Tavares will necessarily play second fiddle to the Swede the rest of his career. Evgeny Malkin, Chris Pronger, Eric Staal and Dany Heatley were all No. 2 picks. And No. 2 will always mean there's room to improve. "He strives to be the best he can be. He sets the bar high for himself and where most would be content, he's not." MacDougall said. "If they're still telling him he's not a good enough skater when he's 28, he'll be at a summer hockey school." WEEKEND SHOWCASE OF HOMES *Each office is independently owned and operated 1ST AD!
