The 18-year-old Norris spent last season with the U-18 United States Development Program (USNTDP) in the United States Hockey League (USHL).

On one hand, the NHL Draft is the main source of where NHL teams prepare for the future: they choose players who they think can contribute to their team in the future.

On the other hand, the NHL Draft is also the source of many, many amazing and awkward photos of 17 and 18-year olds. In honor of the 2017 Draft, we went through some of the current Sharks draft photos and ranked them.
