3-on-3 Tournament Awards time!

The Ulf Dahlen Boardmaster Plaque

Winner: Garret Pilon - relentless, quick and precise with his stick, and stronger than his size would indicate
Other notables: Beck Malensyn, Brett Leason, Connor McMichael

The Rico Fata Best Skating Performance

Winner: Axel Jonsson-Fjallby - his skating really is special. Younger Hagelin-esque.
Other notables: Shane Gersich, Martin Fehervary, Martin Has

The Sasha Semin Golden Hands Award

Winner: Connor McMichael - the quick dangles in tight spaces are legit. This guy is going to make his living off the cycle.
Other finalists: Shane Gersich, Joe Snively, Garret Pilon

The Ivan Majesky "Holy Shot That Dude is a Monster" Medal

Winner: Tobias Geisser - Looked every bit as big as Protas, and is still lean. He's gonna be huge when he fills out.
Other finalists: Alex Alexeyev, Brett Leason, Aliaksei Protas

The Alex Oveckin Take Your Lunch Money Scholarship

Winner: Beck Malenstyn - I wish I'd been more attentive to who the victim was, but was too excited. Loose puck at center ice. Beck and victim #1 arrive at the same time, in full stride. Beck puts the guy on his ass, drives the middle and picks the corner of the goal. Highlight of the session for me.

The Bryan Muir Self-Forechecker of the Year

Winner: Aliaksei Protas - Poor guy. Skated himself into the corner on his own goal line against one forechecker. Just didn't have the quickness to shake him. He has an incredibly inefficient stride and was the only player I saw really sucking wind after a shift. Potentially fixable due to the poor fitness and mechanics.

Awesome stuff.... And oh some of those names take me back.

Yes.

 

[Marshall]

A great post

Top stuff. You just reminded me why I hang out at HF.

 

[BiPolar Caps]

Gersich one of the few receiving multiple recognition from NBTW for speed and dangling then hearing Richmond say he's been the best in the camp and that he has a nastiness to his game, gotta think he'll be in the bottom six come Octoberl

If Jason Momoa can’t make it look good, nobody can.

I will speak with authority on this subject: No one is looking at Jason Momoa's hair.

Nonsense!

 

[Calicaps]

Nonsense!

Don't misunderstand me... on any other man, the hair is an attention-getter, but on him... easily his 3rd or 4th most interesting asset.

There were similar rave reviews about Gersich last year at development camp, only for him to follow it up with a disappointing rookie season in the AHL.

Gersich kept improving as the year went on in Hershey. He's a good example of the seasoning some players need before making the jump to the NHL. He started playing a 200 ft game, making smart plays, and as mentioned showing a little nastiness at times. He's becoming a more complete player to go along with speed and offensive instincts.

This is getting into a weird area for me....lol.

 

[Random schmoe]

TIL that Neal Broten is Gersich's uncle.

Good stuff NBTW. Thanks.

 

[Sam Spade]

I’m at the scrimmage if anyone is coming. Red hat, white sweatshirt, up on the balcony in a primo spot.

 

[John Price]

 

[Charles Calvert]

I like this kid already.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

The comments about Gersich make me happy. He made such a great first impression late last year. I hope he sticks in DC.

He's a prospect I really want to make it. I'm a big fan.

 

[RandyHolt]

When Gersich got his cup of coffee 14 months ago, I loved seeing him hitting - its rare to see a small feisty player in a caps uni. Hopefully he keeps up the 200 foot complete game and we gradate another kid.
