Commandant Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 20 year old Centre in Seattle who was passed over twice. I don't have any notes on him as I didn't focus on him due to the fact he hadn't been drafted the last two years. Did score a lot this year, 89 points in 64 games and 29 in 25 playoff games. Probably headed to Laval right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I don't mind this type of pick (I've been wanting Logan Morrison for the same reason, can go to the minors right away). They can give him an AHL deal and get him in the system without burning a 50-contract slot. His 2020-21 campaign wasn't bad either in limited action so the big jump isn't necessarily right out of the blue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably headed to Laval right away. In 1 article I read it says that he was unselected in the WHL draft too. He was free-agent invite to Seattle camp. I've got a funny felling he might turn into something. Its possible that he was behind other people his age but he could be the type that keeps getting better so in time there is likely a good chance that he makes the NHL in some capacity. He is a scrappy guy: https://www.hockeyfights.com/players/26457 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 An intriguing pick, anyway. I wonder if this was an instance of Hugh-Gort’s preoccupation with “character” playing a deciding role? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
