Taylor Leier has come a long way after being selected by the Flyers in the 4th round of the 2012 draft. As captain of the Portland Winterhawks, Leier finished with the 21st most points in the Western Hockey League. His play was good enough to merit a selection to the Canadian World Junior Team, where he played along side some of hockey's best prospects. Leier definitely opened the eyes of many in the hockey world and will move on to play for the Lehigh Valley Phantoms next season. If his offensive ability and solid two-way play can translate to the pros, he will be playing in Philadelphia soon enough.
