Prospect Info: #102 G Tyler Brennan, Prince George WHL

[StevenToddIves]

I don't write up goalies but I feel this is a great pick. Many consider Brennan the best G in the draft -- he's huge and extremely athletic. Nothing not to love about this pick.

Second goalie off the board in the entire draft and they got him at pick 102. That seems like a good value pick.

Drafted in the first round, 21st overall, in the 2018 WHL Draft, the depth chart and the COVID pandemic have prevented Tyler Brennan from becoming a starting goalie in the WHL until December of this year. Brennan is just a few days too young to have been eligible for the 2021 NHL Draft. He played for a rebuilding Prince George Cougars team, appearing in 39 regular-season games. Brennan went 11-25-2 with a 3.58 goals-against-average and .899 save percentage. He also appeared in four playoff games. Brennan went 0-3-0 as the Cougars were swept in the first round by the Portland Winter Hawks. It certainly wasn’t Brennan’s fault as he had a 1.86 goals-against-average and a .954 save percentage. Brennan played for Team White at the CHL Top Prospects Game.

Not ideal stats but goalies almost never do have ideal stats, especially with the pandemic taking away a year of development

 

[HobokenIrish]

Good!!! Now lets light some candles that he develops into a starter

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

honestly reading about him and he sounds like a Blackwood clone

hopefully less psycho

 

[bossram]

Organizational depth in goal. Might as well keep buying lottery tickets there.

 

[MasterofGrond]

People like him, we got fine value, no complaints

Always need f***ing goalies

 

[Edmonton East]

No brainer

 

[Cheddabombs]

Looks technically sound with pretty good movement. But it's his highlights for a reason lol. Always enjoy a good ol goalie lottery pick in these later rounds

i refuse to have an opinion about a goalie prospect from here on out until they’re either lifting the cup or announcing their retirement. Good luck, kid.

3 more goalies went by pick 122 I'd say pretty good timing.

Strengths​

• Excellent size
• Reflexes and positional instincts
• Good flexibility for his size
• Calm and collected
• Excellent mental game for his age

Under Construction (Improvements to Make)​

• Squeezing arms tight for shots under his arms
• Puck handling could use some work
• Allows a few too many rebounds

I'm totally good with continuing to take top ranked goalies every year when you can get them after the 2nd round.

I really like this pick. I believe the Devils should keep taking a goalie every year (ideally an athletic goalie like Brennan) and hope that one develops into an above average starter.

Looking at the video presentation, Brennan showed no emotion whatsover. No smile. Nothing. Makes me question the pick when you have the personality of a rock.

he's a goalie. I can argue that's perfect for the position.

Hell yeah

I would love a terminator in net

I live in PG and try to get out to as many games as I can. They were a very young team last season with their best players not draft eligible until next season . Take his numbers with a grain of salt, I feel like he got better as the season went on and was pretty good in the playoffs where the cougars were way overmatched . The team should hopefully be better next year.

Some say monotone, I say ice water in his veins.

Also, when they selected him NHL Network they showed him shaking hands with everyone at the table. He didn't show much emotion. Once of the first hands he shook was Brodeur and I was hoping he knows that Brodeur was one of the greatest of all-time. Some of these athletes are not students of the game.
