NHL Entry Draft 2020 NHL Draft Discussion - PART V

[Sweatred]

Anyone want to give me cliff notes on Perfetti? He was on that coaches poll list a lot in important categories.

Sounds like, from what little ive read, the question about his upside is due to average skating? Vision, play-making, smarts, stick-handling...sounds like hes got everything else.

I worry he is a lighter version of RNH.

 

[DJB]

Anyone have the leagues 3 suggestions from the Athletic how the draft should go?

 

[BondraTime]

I worry he is a lighter version of RNH.

Perfetti is 21 pounds heavier than RNH was when he was drafted, and weighs the essentially the same that Hopkins does right now...

That's because you're missing the Nugent portion of him

Just a heads up, the Athletic is free for a few months

nah, he does skate around the same way though with like his whole upper body over the puck .

 

[Burrowsaurus]

the league better not scnrew us over in tis draft, melnyk should have spent some timebuilding some good will.

I wonder who the one team who proposed a tourny for 1st overall was? i dont trust any thing from Ken holland hes always been chummy with Bettman.

Im sure the NYR would love LAF and think a playoff would be a good chance to determine them as winner.

 

[Bileur]

Interesting/fun read.

Not sure about the methods or projections (projects Raymond as possible 30 goal 80 point player, Stützle as 15-20 goal guy doesn’t mention point projection but still says they’re close? ) but interesting and fun nonetheless.

 

[RAFI BOMB]

The news that the Sens are likely going to sign Artyom Zub is potentially a good sign that the Sens will consider drafting from the MHL/KHL. Zub played from SKA in the KHL, its MHL affiliate is SKA 1946 which has Marat Khusnutdinov, Maxim Krovyakov, and Alexander Gordin among others.

I feel there are some very talented prospects from Russia including Rodion Amirov, Shakir Mukhamadulin, Maxim Groshev, Maxim Beryozkin, Bogdan Trineyev, Alexander Nikishin, Dmitri Ovchinnikov. There are also some solid over age prospects like Danil Gutik, Danil Bashkirov among others.

Check out the MHL to find some interesting prospects for this draft.

Dmitri Rashevsky F 6'1 165 lbs is a 2nd time draft eligible that might be worth looking into. He made some massive progress in production from last season to this season. His stats:
MHL 2018-2019: 24 GP 4 G 1 A 5 PTS
MHL 2019-2020: 61 GP 44 G 30 A 74 PTS
Dmitri Rashevsky at eliteprospects.com
Here is a recent playoff game of his where he scored 2 goals, one of which was the OT winner. He wears number 11 in white.He seems like an intelligent player with a strong compete level and it good at pressuring puck carriers. If you want to skip to his goals you can check the scoring summary here:

**** that's horrible news. Was such a great resource for arm-chair scouting.

Was looking forward to doing a ton of shift-by-shift scouting closer to draft time. Too bad.

HockeyTV has NTDP, USHL, NAHL, BCHL, AJHL games.

MHL puts all their games up on YouTube.

All credit to RAFI for finding those.

Depends what you are looking for.

HockeyTV
HockeyTV
It is free until April 6th and has all games from USHL, USNTDP, NAHL, NCDC, AJHL, BCHL and a handful of other secondary leagues. It is normally around $40 per month.

МХЛ

If you are looking for USHS-MN or USHS-Prep just search the team on Youtube as there are a number of free games to check out.

I am not sure where people find games for the other European leagues but that should get you going and should give you some free content to check out.

I watch mine all live from a shady website that I'm probably not allowed to say on here?

But this major European streaming service Telia bought the rights to Finnish Liiga so they've really cracked down on streaming of Liiga games.

Oh, also most major international tournament games are posted to youtube. A lot of it by this account TaiwanHockey. No idea what the story is there.

Hockey Canada's website also shows streams for all games in tournaments they're involved in, except for games TSN buys the rights to. So at the U17s for instance, every game for every team was available there except for the medal rounds, which TSN aired. They keep the games available for a few months and then they disappear into the ether.

I know . Hopefully something else like it pops up soon.

Any thoughts on Jack Finley? I havn't been able to find much video footage of him from this year. Seems like an interesting pick. I think he was on the second line this year and almost point/game. One of if not the youngest players in the draft. 6'4 center. I really don't know anything about him. He also destroyed the combine apparently.

Love him as early as a 2nd rounder. Huge upside and really just coming into his own. Project, but could be a beast of a pro in 3-4 years.
