The Hockey Writers looked at 2016 recruit Dante Fabbro for its draft profile series. The 6'1", 190 lb., right-shot blueliner, scored 67 points (14G, 53A) for the Penticton Vees, en route to being named the BCHL's top defenseman.
"He plays with poise and makes mature, high-percentage decisions under pressure. In his own end, he is proactive with both his body and stick, and does everything right to interrupt passing lanes and win back possession. With the puck on his stick, he is mobile at an elite level and can direct plays like a quarterback. He possesses a hard and accurate release on his shot, that he gets off quickly and on-net. All-in-all, a complete defenseman that plays a refined game at both ends of the ice.”
