2017-2018 CHL/NCAA/Euro Prospects Thread

[1909]

I am always forgetting about him. Could be a good addition to Laval next season.

I am always forgetting about him. Could be a good addition to Laval next season.

So far what I've seen from him, a few games here and there, as well as a lot of highlights, he's a kind of Gallagher/Byron hybrid.

 

[Wandering Maroon]

Probably the 4th overall - some predict Brady Tkachuk, I think it will be Zadina or Hughes.

 

[ProspectsFanatic]

I'm especially looking forward to Poehling. He'll most likely be the oldest player in the tournament (he'll be 20 before it ends) and he's coming off a disappointing performance in this year's event. He will probably be the top line center so he'll get tons of PP time and get to play with the best wingers.

Hughes will be 1C.

 

[Fish on The Sand]

Hughes will be 1C.

As a 17 year old? I guess so. I wouldn't be shocked if its Poehling though.

 

[LastWordArmy]

Probably the 4th overall - some predict Brady Tkachuk, I think it will be Zadina or Hughes.

Out of all the spots in the top 7... 4th is where we are least likely to pick. It is only a 3% chance

 

[Goldenhands]

Hughes will be 1C.

no doubt. but I could see Poehling being used in front of the net on the first PP wave...

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Hughes will be 1C.

I doubt it.
Poehling is the guy who will be used in all situations: 1st pp, 1st pk, defending the lead in the last few minutes of the game, playing against the best players from other teams, etc.

Hughes might end up scoring more than Poehling, but in terms of utilization I doubt Hughes gets more icetime.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Alexandre Alain with a goal tonight. However, for a second straight game, Charlottetown wins it in OT and ties the series at 2-2.

I would like to see Habs sign Cale Fleury to an ELC as he's eligible for the AHL as of next season. It's rare you draft a player and after only one season of Juniors, they're eligible for the AHL. Most take 2 seasons before they're eligible for the farm team.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Will Bitten and the Hamilton Bulldogs are Eastern Conference Champions and advance to the OHL Finals. Bitten is a step closer to the Memorial Cup.

Bitten finished the Conference Final with 2 pts (1G, 1A) in 5 games. Both points came in the same game.

He is now at 9 points (3G, 6A) in 15 playoff games.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Armada win Game 5 against Islanders. Alain with an assist on the game winning goal, bringing his production to 16 points (12G, 9A) in 14 playoff games. Armada take a 3-2 series lead.

 

[L4br3cqu3]

Armada win Game 5 against Islanders. Alain with an assist on the game winning goal, bringing his production to 16 points (12G, 9A) in 14 playoff games. Armada take a 3-2 series lead.

21 points is even better

 

[Adam Michaels]

21 points is even better

You're right. My bad.

Jack Hughes(next year's Habs pick) says 'Hi'?

Experience often trumps talent in those tournaments.

 

[Adam Michaels]

We know Verbeek is out, but worth noting that SSM lost in OT in Game 6 and the series is tied 3-3.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Armada tied 1-1 against Islanders right now. Alain with an assist so far. If Armada wins tonight, they move on to the Q finals against Acadie-Bathurst.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Alain scores on the PP to give Armada the lead. His 13th of these playoffs.

 

[ZUKI]

Alain scores on the PP to give Armada the lead. His 13th of these playoffs.

Thanks for the updates Adam !

 

[Redux91]

Alain scores on the PP to give Armada the lead. His 13th of these playoffs.

Tied Zadina for 3rd in the league with 44 goals

Great signing for the farm team

 

[Adam Michaels]

Islanders had tied it with about 2 minutes left in the game. And now they won it in OT. So the series is tied 3-3 and will be decided in a Game 7.

 

[Adam Michaels]

It will be Sault Ste. Marie vs. Hamilton in the OHL finals. SSM won Game 7 in double OT last night. We won't get the chance to see Verbeek vs. Bitten as Verbeek is out injured. But if SSM make it to the Memorial Cup, I don't know if he'll be ready by then. If yes, another Habs prospect will join Fleury in the tournament, whether it be Verbeek or Bitten.
