Joe Pavelski Blurb From Hockeys Future

Hockey's Future has a blurb on Joe Pavelski in their draft preview for the San Jose Sharks. It reads "The Sharks also value players with strong work ethic and leadership abilities, especially in mid- and late-round picks. Current Sharks prospects such as Joe Pavelski, Torrey Mitchell, Derek Joslin, Steven Zalewski, Tom Cavanagh, and Will Colbert are all prime examples of this focus. Pavelski may epitomize this trait. The 2003 seventh round pick captained his high school team to the 2003 Wisconsin state championship, the Waterloo Black Hawks to the 2004 USHL championship, Team USA to a silver medal at the 2004 Viking Cup, and was a leader on the University of Wisconsin's 2006 national championship team.
