Mils Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 http://news.yahoo.com/s/cpress/20080209/ca..._habs_trotter_2 I've had a chance to see him play here in Denver, and Brock Trotter is an excellent player. Very high quality UFA pick-up. He's got excellent speed, is very shifty in traffic, and has excellent offensive and defensive awareness. His major downside may be that he is certainly shoot-first, sometimes at the expense of setting up an open teammate, and he's only 5-9, 165. He also does not dazzle with an overwhelmingly hard shot, although it is very accurate. Hopefully he makes it to the pros, he's a good player. He might remind some of a Marek Svatos, Andrew Cogliano, or T.J. Hensick type. I don't think there's much of a comparison to any current Habs.

Habsfan Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 and he's only 5-9, 165 Corey Locke II? Exactly what I was thinking. DO we really need another small player? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazy26 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Not that this is a huge difference, but TSN lists him at 5ft10, 180 lbs. So, Koivu-sized instead of Pat Kane-sized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
