[Morgs]

Less than .50 ppg in two seasons.

Why?

 

[bigdirty]

He was drafted to be a meal for Rasanen.

 

[Woll Smoth]

Younger brother of UFC superstar Conor

 

[Mess]

Fun Fact:

• Lists former NHL forward Wendel Clark (Maple Leafs, Nordiques, Islanders, Lightning, Red Wings, Blackhawks) as his childhood hockey idol.

 

[SprDaVE]

Less than .50 ppg in two seasons.

Why?

I assume they like his work ethic and mobility. He's not strong and not overly skilled but he's really good in all 3 zones.

 

[MJ65]

Not sure - why?

 

[Anthrax442]

I like him for the name alone

 

[RoadWarrior]

They need a new stick boy

 

[NarcoPolo]

Don't like this one very much. Oh well.

+ He's from Burlington..

First confusing pick for me, the very definition of "meh". Guess that's what a 6th round pick is for.

 

[ChrisCall]

Have to think the scouts believe/see skill that the stat sheet doesn't show. You don't draft a 150lb player as a goon or shutdown 3/4C potential type.

 

[BigBlu]

I like him for the name alone

With a leg for an arm, and an arm for a legor.

 

[bobermay]

Could be a Connor Brown type pick, no?

[Arathor]

Derian Hatcher had good things to say about him. Saw leadership potential so put the A on him and describes him as a greasy player who can make plays in tight. Supposedly was battling concussion issues from previous season so couldn't work out all summer hence the lacklustre year

 

[Lauro]

He was drafted to be a meal for Rasanen.

 

[NoTouchIcing]

I like him for the name alone

Hopefully he goes Jedi like Ewan McGregor

 

[htpwn]

Could be a Connor Brown type pick, no?

Not even close. Brown was above PPG at the same age.

 

[stickty111]

Hunter must believe he is a breakout candidate as you know he wants too have a bounceback year. He has enough skill to put up more points.
I am alright with this.

No he wasn't.
