Observations:

April 2013 - His third season with the Prince Albert Raiders saw Winther take a small step backwards statistically. In 2012-13 Winther's goal scoring dropped from 32 last season, to 22 , while his overall points slipped from 56 to 50. On a positive note, he posted by far his best plus/minus, finishing at plus-15 besting his minus-9 from the last season. Rex Doty

April 2012 – Winther went from being a disappointing rookie to a lethal scorer this year. He improved from 10 points as a 16 year-old to 56 as 17 year-old. It’s that type of growth that makes Winther a very lucrative prospect. That also includes a team high 32 goals for the lowly Prince Albert Raiders. His season also included an appearance at the CHL Top Prospects Game as well as an invite to play for Canada at the Under-18 World Championship. Winther is another undersized draft eligible player that will have to battle consistency issues to take the next step.

Fantasy Outlook: C+

A bit on the small side. Talented goal scorer will have to round out his game. Long wait time.
