Staal led the Petes in scoring during his draft year, with 39 goals and 98 points. He was named to the Canadian Hockey League's (CHL) First All-Star Team as well as the Ontario Hockey League's (OHL) Second All-Star Team. Staal also contributed one assist in the CHL Top Prospects Game. In his first season with the Hurricanes in 2006-07, Staal scored 15 goals and added 31 assists for 46 points. He led all NHL rookies in scoring and was selected to the 2007 NHL All-Rookie Team. Staal has continued to be a dominant force in the offensive zone throughout his OHL career. The Hurricanes' captain has more than enough talent to become one of the league's top players. He is a strong two-way player who plays a physical game and is able to contribute on the power play. The only question is whether or not he will continue to improve and reach his full potential. Staal was drafted second overall by the Hurricanes in the 2005 NHL Draft. He joined brothers Cam and Jordan as a member of the franchise at the time of his selection. The Staals are the most successful family in Carolina hockey history; they are now responsible for bringing the Stanley Cup back to North Carolina after it had been lost for nearly 100 years. The Cup will be on display at the BB&T Center through October 2010.
