I don't usually have time to follow many prospects but one player I'm very interested in is Akim Aliu. He's got a very interesting past so far for a kid who is only 19 years-old. Born in Nigeria, Aliu already is 6'3 and 210 lbs and could either be a locker room cancer or he could add some size to the forwards and a kill 'em all outlook. He already wants to beat the tar out of Steve Downie - I approve of that.

Puck Daddy had a bit more on the fight last year and ESPN actually had a good biography on him too during the 2007 draft.
