13-14 Prospects Thread Version XXI: Finn 2nd. in PPG OHL Defenders

[67Cup]

Do we have any prospects that are considered PMDs? I was going through the list on Hockey Futures and wasn't sure.

Probably that Rielly kid.

 

[LeafsTop6]

Matt Finn would be the closest player we have to that role

rielly, gardiner...

 

[Bravid Nonahan]

Not prospects...

 

[Rare Jewel]

Herzog to Marlies soon.

The 19-year-old was drafted last season, the 5th round by the Toronto Maple Leafs. He should join the AHL Canadian organization, Marlies.

Release the Herzog!!

Hope he can get a few games in

 

[Duffman955]

How do you guys think Herzog played this season?

Hes numbers are decent and seems to play a style that could translate well in the pro level.

He's got the benefit of having played 22 games already in the NLA; So playing against men won't be a completely new thing for him. As for his play this season, I haven't seen much obviously not living in Quebec. But I did see him last rookie tournament in London, And I though he look pretty good.

But Sergeconstantin74 who has been giving us updates though out the year would be the best person to ask.

 

[Renegade]

I like Herzog. Probably my favourite late pick by the Leafs in 2013.

Good start to the CHL playoffs for Leaf prospects:

Gauthier 4 points in 4 games, +6
Herzog 4 points in 4 games, -2
Finn 3 points in 4 games, +4
Brown 8 points in 4 games, +2
Rupert 7 points in 3 games, +5
Verhaeghe 2 points in 3 games, -1

Updates....

Finn 3 points in 5 games, +5
Brown 8 points in 5 games, +2
Rupert 8 points in 4 games, +4

Verhaeghe and Herzog out of the playoffs.

Verhaeghe was invisible for most of the series, and was definitely invisible in game 7 tonight.

Missed game 5 and playing hurt in game 6 and 7 pretty sure

 

[Hotlanta]

Verhaeghe was invisible for most of the series, and was definitely invisible in game 7 tonight.

I'll let him slide because of his injury, but he was awful tonight. He didn't seem to get many minutes either. Perlini looked awful too.

Not good tonight, but I thought he was Niagara's best player early in the series.

Perlini has been lack luster really the whole second half of the season, cant even recall if he had a shot on goal tonight. Seems like the type of player that relies on others to get him chances, sort of hope the leafs stay away from him in the draft.

Oh well, North Bay's a tough team to play against

 

[BIitz]

That Siebenaler on the Ice Dogs sure can fly.

He's a guy I'm really interested in. Hear almost nothing about him on here, but when I catch Niagara, I'm always impressed. Anyone know what round the pundits have him in?

 

[Green Snow Storm]

I believe we have a player in Finn. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't develop into at least a good second pairing guy. His hockey iq is off the charts. He's not a bad skater at all, but if he can get a bit better in that area I don't see anything holding him back.

@markhmasters 50s
Leafs sign Carter Verhaeghe to 3-yr entry level deal; will join Marlies on amateur tryout agreement for the remainder of season

Wish I knew more about him too. He really caught my attention last night.

 

[Animal]

i'm excited to see Verhaeghe with the Marlies. Hopefully him and Herzog impress

 

[Rare Jewel]

Gauthier scores in a 4-2 win for Rimouski.

Gauthier was named 1st star.

Won 19 of 33 faceoffs, 1 goal on 1 shot.

I actually really like Siebenaler. He looks like he improves every handful of games.

He's got top notch skating, and good isntincts. He's actually relatively new to the defensive position so he's learning how to read plays defensively and play the defensive game like a dman should. He's taw but has a ton of potential. He's a classic two-way dman who loves to run the PP and jump into the play. I've heard him compared to TJ Brodie.

 

[babblemoth]

Wish I knew more about him too. He really caught my attention last night.

Was ranked 47th for NA skaters in the upcoming draft by NHL Central Scouting Services. The guy can skate. Seen him live a few times this year and just about everyone around you comments on his skating. Finds ways to rush the puck in. Like Ice Wookie says above he is raw talent, could have lots of upside down the road.

 

[Green Snow Storm]

Gauthier will be a good one I believe. Good chance he could be an elite 3rd line C. Which is a crucial piece for championship teams. Nothing wrong with that with a fairly late 1st.
