Winger is the easiest position to play, i suppose. I dont know how 'great' a defender he is, i thought he was good skater and has the smarts to maybe avoid getting run over by the Tom Wilson's of the NHL.

But my impression is that they are focused on bigger AND faster AND skilled ... by which I mean not just bigger for the sake of bigger.

The kid has talent, no doubt. Now, some people are suggesting that he should switch the forward but I think it's a bit early to be planning that. I don't think hes the same player at forward. One of his biggest assets is how he reads the play with everything in front of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're not supposed to get excited about prospects, but after he was drafted, I watched a bunch of video. I'm excited about this kid.

Ya, was waiting to see how he did in NCAA and seems is kicking ass. I assume he will play next year as well in NCAA, so he is still a long time for him to work on strength/skating and from suiting up for the Habs. Late spring 2024 with Laval or Habs seems reasonable guess? Engstrom 1g Kapanen 1a Heineman/Nurmi 0pts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
