The Grandson of NHL legend Bobby Baun, the 22-year-old has good size. Baun has 13 goals and 28 points in 34 games this season. Baun looks like a power forward, with good speed, the balance and power to fight through checks, and the puck handling to protect the puck in the cycle game and drive the net. Baun has a decent shot, and good hands in close. He wins board battles and does a good job establishing position in front of the net. Baun also has some decent vision and passing skills which really help in the cycle game.

Kyle Baun, RW
Junior, Colgate University (ECAC)
Colgate junior Kyle Baun began attracting the attention of NHL scouts following an excellent sophomore campaign. While he is one of the lesser-known available collegiate free agents on this year’s list, he has garnered considerable interest from NHL teams. Among them are the Boston Bruins and the Detroit Red Wings, whose prospect camps he attended this past summer.
The Toronto, ON native plays the right side on one of the ECAC’s most exciting top lines alongside the Spink twins. Baun currently ranks second on the Raiders squad with 28 points (13 goals, 15 assists) in 34 games. His 15 assists and four power play goals co-lead the team. Baun leads Colgate with a +13 rating and 60 penalty minutes.
Baun, the grandson of legendary NHL defenseman Bobby Baun, is a 6’2†and 210-pound power forward who has excelled on the Raiders’ special teams this season. One of Baun’s attributes that scouts have taken particular notice of is how he utilizes his size and strength. He’s a player that is difficult to move off of the puck, and he uses the aforementioned assets exceedingly well in gaining separation and in battles for loose pucks. Baun is an excellent skater with terrific speed. He has developed into a reliable scorer who can chip in goals at crucial times and can wreak havoc in front of opposing goaltenders. He also does an equally good job of setting up plays.
