That sound you hear is Don Cherry screaming.

 

[MJ65]

Another big forward

 

[buttman*]

Is he an overager?

 

[gordarama7]

We're filling out with some bigger 3rd and 4th liners!

 

[Stephen]

So what does he do?

 

[Remotion]

Woah beast

 

[LV*]

Only problem is... What if he just elects to stay in Russia? Sokolov moved to the OHL because he wants to play in NA...

 

[ULF_55]

I would guess these guys are smart and can skate.

 

[HeroNtF]

way to small, bust.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Possible CHL Euro import for next season

 

[Mikeyg]

This guy has speed, skill, size and a great stride. His production was high for that MHL league as well.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

He also plays RW. Kind of like Korshkov but a year behind. Once again they do pretty well with value out of the 1 year OA guys. It's just the two year OA guys that are a little bit iffy.

 

[p.l.f.]

another big mother

brooks was the only 20 year they took I believe.

 

[RoadWarrior]

I like the pick. Great size and skill package. Sounds like a Thommie Bergman sleeper.

Googled and this image came up:

He should be pretty tough.

 

[Mess]

Is he an overager?

Nope, 3 months younger the Marner so he was draft eligible last year.

 

[Teeder9]

From a Russian member:

Why he can be drafted: physically gifted and hard working kid, finally got a leading role in the MHL and his production went up drastically.

Why he probably won't be drafted: lack of exposure, probably he will have to wait for his chance at the WJC.

6'3 winger who works hard. Almost like they looked for guys like this

 

[FlareKnight]

No thoughts right now.

Curious to see how this works out.

 

[ULF_55]

Another future audition for Marner's line.

They should get some size for Nylander and Marner from this draft.

 

[7even]

Led his MHL team in scoring by 10+ points while being 2nd in PIMS. Not shabby.

 

[Quares27]

Another big guy
