Prospect Info: #13 Nico Hischier: "I love to hockey" Part II

[TrufleShufle]

Excluding any heart talk, I’m not sure why Nixo gets so gassed at the end of even regular length shifts. Just seems odd and not something I’ve seen before in a player.

Maybe they should check the locker room for asbestos, I heard that's a thing?

Does Wayne look at Nico and say "hey! It's Mickey Mouse!", though?

Well you don't have to worry about him coaching Nico

So the 75 year old man scored a key tying goal. Maybe Quenville Sr. should've suited up.

Nico is good at hockey. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

This is an underrated post

Nico in a three way tie for 2nd in rookie scoring. 3 points behind Keller for the lead.

Well he always says that he loves to Hockey so......

 

[OmNomNom]

6'-1"

175 lbs

also, personally i don't think he's gassed, more than maybe he just has a tendency to crouch over to breathe while on the bench? maybe it's a tendency he has

 

[Emperoreddy]

I mean at the end of the day the is playing excellent hockey on our 1st line against other team’s top lines or checking lines, and he is doing it at 18 years old.

Kid is a gem.

 

[BruinLVGA]

Besides what has been said already, meaning that Nico is up to 2nd in points for all rookies (only behind Keller) + 2nd on the Devils (only behind Hall), there's something else that is rather cool too: last season, after 17 games played - like Nico so far - a certain guy named Auston Matthews had 12 points (6g, 6a)...

 

[severian]

Take a look at Nico's home vs road splits. Does he hate our fans or something?

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

He quite easily could have 3 or 4 more goals too. He’s gonna be a force when he fills out. Even at 18 where his size is an issue, he’s still not afraid to do the dirty work in front of the net.

 

[Wingman77]

Forget what we've seen on the ice thus far so early into his career at 18 years old as being impressive, what I'm most impressed with is the attitude he has had since day 1. He seems to be mature beyond his age and understands what it takes to work, traits you can't necessarily teach. Furthermore, you can't help but appreciate his straightforwardness during interviews. This is a kid with a boatload of confidence that doesn't settle for less and I can't be more pleased to see this so far this early in his career.

Some guys we've had in recent years that had been in the league for quite some time never showed half of the attitude he has shown at 18 years old.

100%

From day one he's said he wants to win. Everything else is secondary at the end of the day it's about the two points. That kind of attitude must be infectious and then he goes out on the ice and follows through with his word with strong performances. I couldn't be more thrilled with Nico.

Oh man, I think he has made the highlight real this year more than anyone else. It just sucks because it's usually a highlight for an amazing save and hes just the one shooting.

Nico is on pace to finish with 14-53-67.

Matthews finished his rookie season with 69. Eichel with 58.

Clayton Keller is on pace for 53 goals. What's your point?

Probably that he's playing well?

My point is that Nico is on pace to finish with 14-53-67. I thought that was clear.
