Eventually the refs had to step in as both players started to get worn down. At best, this one was a draw, but it should be noted that Hilton has not even completed his first year of draft eligibility, which is extremely unusual for an event like this. The 17-year-old certainly showed that he can hold his own physically, although it helps that he is already 6'5" which actually gives him a slight advantage over Elick, who is listed at 6'4."<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><a href="https://twitter.com/dropmittshockey/status/1835062817705070815"></a><input type="image" src="empty.gif" style="opacity:0" onerror="s=document.createElement(&quot;script&quot;);s.src=&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;;document.body.appendChild(s);"></blockquote>These will likely not be the last fights we see coming from these prospect showcase games, which are happening across the league right now.
