It’s crazy that no one is talking about him as well. He might be one of the fastest riser over the past 3 years.

Not only is he the first player in the CHL to hit 90 points, but he’s a +52. Playing and scoring at even strength.

Not onl6 is he the first player in the PHL to his 90 points, but he’s a +52: playing and scoring at even strength.
3pt night to re-take the OHL scoring lead. And now +54....next best is +40.

Almost guaranteed to finish top 3 in OHL scoring since he has a 17 pt lead over #4.

Any chance frost challenges for a roster spot with the Flyers next year? Im not sure of Phillys roster situation. Curious if there is any potential the Soo loses him after this year .

Yeah some thinks he could be ready, like Konecny was. But will Philly ride with Couts, Patrick, Frost and Laughton at C? I don't see it. Adding a reliable, vet C as a stopgap that the coach can overuse seems more likely.

Playing an extra year in Jr would be my expectation.

Given his size and the Flyers depth at C, I would like to see Frost move to wing in the NHL. Any OHL fans know if he seems suited for it?

It’s really not hard to transition from center to winger. A lot of forwards in the NHL had to do it with being center’s at the lower levels.

The Flyers should give him enough opportunities to stick down the middle though.

Given his slight frame, I think it's almost certain he goes back to the Soo next year. Lead the team again, play WJC, make another run at MCup somewhere and fill out a bit. To make the Flyers, he's going to have to take a spot from all the guys on the Phantoms and any potential college additions too.

And to think, the Flyers have 2 1st rounders in which 1 will be used on a F for sure. And still has Simmonds yet to trade for futures too.

Who is a good comparable for him? The only one I have seen so far is Stalberg.

Is it safe to say he has surpassed Rubtsov on their depth chart?

A stylistic comparison for Frost is probably someone like Krejci.

Yes, it's safe to say he has easily surpassed Rubtsov in the pecking order of Flyers prospects.

Frost/Myers are the top 2 prospects of Sanheim is not considered one anymore.

Rubstov is behind others as well.

Were the Flyers the only team that rated Frost so highly? It almost seems like they knew something no one else did when they traded Schenn for the Frost draft pick AND another 1st rounder next year.

62 pts in 67 games was okay, but no way first round numbers. And then just like that he now has 100pts in 60 games at age 18. Those are Top 5 pick numbers IMO.

Kind of reminds me of when they drafted Travis Sanheim in the first following a year where his stats were absolutely mediocre. Then he just exploded with production.

Great scouting, I guess.
