lol barnaby

 

[SensBrawler]

Well if Barnaby likes him, he has to be good.

 

[Benjamin]

Is he a forward or dman? I've seen him listed as both.

USHL defenseman are almost always underrated.

14 goals, 41 points in 56 games. Good size at 6'2. Made the second all-star team this year.

Son of former NHLer Craig Wolanin

Good pedigree those are some really nice numbers too, can he pass the puck and play physical?

Are you saying he's our Christoph Schubert replacement??????

Started as a forward and switched to D.

Still learning the game as a defenseman, tries to model his game after guys like Karlsson, OEL, and Doughty.

20 years old with Meh numbers.. Seems more like a camp invite than a 4th rounder.. but scouts must see something in him i guess

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Kinda off the board to say the least lol

Yea real good numbers by a Dman. I dont know much of this guy, probably just a dark horse guy.

Sens amateur scout Bob Janecyk on Wolanin:

Another depth pick here I think, let's see how he pans out.

 

[HispanicAtTheDisco]

I'm pretty sure he's captain of his USHL team, and I always approve adding guys with leadership into the organization.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Don't mind this pick after hearing the scout speak.

 

[Othello*]

Was hoping for Parker Wotherspoon

Same here!

Pretty messed up pick....traded up to get a guy thats 20....and doesnt look like he will even attend development camp....

We didn't trade up for him

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

He use to be a forward. Not sure when he converted to a dman. Maybe he was a crappy forward and thats why he was undrafted

Sens seem to of liked taking shots on guys who are fairly recently convertd dmen or forwards

 

[BonkTastic]

We didn't trade up for him

This was the pick we got in the Gryba trade, so we kind of did.
