Prospect Info: 2018 NHL Draft / Pick #22 - K'Andre Miller (D)

[Levitate]

Is this a joke? You don't want him to turn into a player who was a top 5 defenseman for most of the last decade? Ok.

Whatever you say. Suter become nothing after he moved from Weber.

Suter has been the top defenseman in Minnesota for his entire time there and routinely puts up 50 points. He's basically what we all thought McDonagh would become...McDonagh maybe peaked higher than him in some ways but couldn't stay there.

IMO Weber is kind of a "old NHL" style top defenseman. He was mobile enough for his size, played nasty and "good" defense, and had the huge shot that let him put up a lot of goals. As the NHL moved towards more mobile defensemen though, some of his shortcomings became more apparent...he isn't very good at moving the puck out of his own end and his skating is really just "good for a big guy" not good overall compared to the guys who ended up taking over as top defensemen in the NHL.

Basically, if we're shooting for the moon with Miller, I want him to be a better skater and puck mover than Weber ever was because he's subpar at those things in todays NHL.

I meant Zoborovskiy.

Be careful. This could be seen as a "personal attack"

Friday vs Clarkson
Saturday vs St. Lawrence

I think all of their games this season are Friday and Saturday back to backs

[Hunter Gathers]

And Lindgren

And my axe.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

And my axe.

One thing I always wondered about that scene is how Gimli could offer his axe, because he smashed it into a thousand pieces literally seconds prior when he tried to destroy the ring

I just signed up for ESPN+ and couldn't find it, weird. Maybe the game hasn't started yet.

I’ll hop on HF on my computer and DM you a link

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Never mind, found it. Thanks!

 

[SnowblindNYR]

The game looks so low budget.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

I’m a few minutes behind, but Miller out on the PK for a goal against

 

[RangerBoy]

Clarkson has an old building. The opposing benches are on opposite sides of the ice. The penalty boxes are near the Clarkson bench. The visiting team penalty box is really a runway with a folding chair.

It's like watching a game from the 1970's/1980's.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

For better or worse, he’s pretty aggressive at either blue line

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Is he #19? Why was he so deep on the PP?
