Commandant Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 He wasn't a player i ranked in my top 114, but I do like him. He's a centre with very good playmaking skills and good skating. He was invited to play for the US NTDP, but opted to stay at home in Minnesota and go the high school route. He is expected to go to North Dakota in 2021. He is a smart player who uses his linemates well. His vision and passing skills are really good. He could get stronger and work on his shot. Defence, its hard to say as the level of competition hasn't been high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Seems was ranked very low or not at all. But can stuff him in USA hockey for numerous years and keep fingers crossed, so guess that is important, given all the picks they have in 2021.

It's just really hard to get excited about a player named Jack Smith. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was Jacques Tremblay, there would be a few reporters excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, there would have been the same number of reporters asking why Timmins didn't select more QMJHL players. I reckon that if the Habs used every draft pick on a Quebec born player, some reporter would ask why they didn't acquire another pick to draft one more.

With Jack Smith now on board, here are the trades I'd love us to make multi players deal with Columbus for Eric Robinson and Ryan Murray Wash for Tom Wilson Blues for Robert Thomas multi players deal with Anaheim for Troy Terry and Max Jones And, of course, with Nashville for Craig Smith, making him our Captain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team colours change to beige. Do you have a coach and GM in mind? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
