Very good junior numbers but struggled in his first pro season. I would say there is some upside there, but he will have to rebound.
I’m very curious about this kid, seems like he’s more of a project player. Curious if he’s capable of being a nhl player one day and what his ceiling is.
As Corgi said, Montreal's farm team wasn't good, so it probably wasn't the best situation for a D-man in his first pro year. Not getting my hopes up for him, though.
I consider it a wash with the 7th rounder.He was scratched quite a few games when the team was deep early in the season before all the call-ups. He wasn't so good either.
His value may even be negative in the trade, not being not worth a contract spot, more or less close to zero for sure.
It takes a special kind of 7th rounder to get drafted in round 6.He was a helluva 7th rounder.......but we'll see.
LOWERY!Are we going to have another player name spelling implosion here? Its boUrque!
