For those in the know, is it Bouchard over Tkachuk?

Good question

Button: Don't feel Boqvist is in same class as Hughes, Dobson, Bouchard
similar views from "Draftin Europe" Draftin Europe – NHL draft prospects in Europe

Things we saw in Boqvist's JUNIOR game over last 2 years (part of the reason why we didn't rank him as high as others even prior to this season) which we feared might pose challenges to him when playing against pros (or NHL caliber competition down the line) were so far confirmed in the games we saw of him playing against pros. Those issues aren't completely gone when he plays against juniors, but they don't jump out nearly as much, mainly because junior players aren't good enough for the most part to challenge him in that way...We feel like his intensity and level of engagement defensively and away from the puck are not at that high of a level...Those issues to us seem more related to mental attributes than to the need of adding more strength...

Yep i am. Hoping for Dobson to continue on the same path. And for the Sens to draft him.

I'd prefer Dobson to Bouchard, but as long as we stay away from Tkachuk at 4, I'm happy.

 

[Viletho]

Probably and i won't be mad of they don't. I just like his play a lot.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

That's unfortunate, but not surprising considering where the organization's priorities are.

Serious question, do you have some sort of inside source?? You always act like you know exactly who the sens want/don't want and I can't tell if it's legitimate or bs hahaha

 

[Viletho]

Dobson is impressive.. but the one stealing the spotlight is the goalie Paddock..

He’s a gamer for sure.

Titan really need to get out of their zone a lot more....feels like a goal against is inevitable with so much time in their zone.

They spent the first 2 periods in Regina's end ... Push back by the Pats this period

Unreal by Viel, fantastic way to end his Junior career.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

That Viel kid just guaranteed himself a pro contract somewhere. Two amazing shifts by that kid.

He's had a good tournament... made an impact for sure

Damn...dominant 5 minutes after that bs call against. Imagine being a 17 year old kid and getting a shutout to win the Memorial Cup? nice win for those kids.

ah...lol, maybe I should've listened a bit closer to the announcers.

 

[edguy]

Paddock guaranteed himself a draft pick this year i think. Kid was unreal.

It's Ceci's brain, not his hands, that hold him back. He thinks the game a second too slow.

In the 40+ games I've seen of Dobson the past 2 years, hands have never been an issue, nor has it been brought up by the dozen or so of scouts I've chatted with this year alone.

I mean he doesn't have hands like Boqvist or Hughes, that's definitely true. There is nothin better concerning about them whatsoever though, no matter how many times the puck has bounced and bobbled these 3 nationally televised Mem Cup games.

The Sens won't be drafting Dobson regardless, so the point is moot.

Agree about the brain, but his hands do suck though. Get that kid to spend the summer doing poweredgepro with Duchene. Won't fix the brain but migh helpt a bit. He take forever to get a shot off.
