GDT: 2019 IIHF U18 Tournament

[Hen Kolland]

Yes, I've been very impressed with him. He seems so sound positionally too. Now I want the Red Wings to draft him next year!

Do we need to sign Kyle Quincey and then trade him to Tampa for their late first round pick next year?

 

[Christien]

Can someone pm me a stream?

Damn I wouldve sent you one if I saw this, you ever get one?

 

[lilidk]

If somebody gave me a million dollars, and my only two options were to either bet it all on Zadina having a great NHL career, or to bet it all on Podkolzin having a great NHL career...

...I choose Zadina without hesitation.

Both players might turn out great, but I've seen a lot more evidence for Filip than for Vasili.

both have great hands , both speed not for NHL , but Podkolzin is complete player , he works harder to. any way it was a mistake not to get Bouchard

So wait...is the US eliminated? I feel like they would be under WJCU20 rules.

They will play for 3rd place.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

They will play for 3rd place.

Gotcha. So they only wish they're eliminated.

Thanks man I did yeah. For some reason I couldn't find it on Reddit like usual.

Krebs having a bit of a rough 1st period. Sweden is totally aware that the top line runs through him. He's got to be able to generate something by himself there.

You say that and then that offensive possession he was showing that plus vision. Just missed connecting with a few set ups

He's definitely got the vision. I'm just saying they're VERY active blocking passing lanes on Krebs today. They're not even worrying about Cozens and Newhook much.

Embarrassing for them. Anything less than gold for that team is complete underachievement

On my short list of guys for their 38th or whatever pick they have in the second round

I think he’s definitely improved his draft stock. Not sure to what end, but he’s looked very good consistently this tournament once he’s been surrounded by talent.

I don't see him not strong enough, Wil be very happy if we get him

I have him above Turcotte and Cozens at this point. I'm all-in.

Safe to say he's your Necas this year

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Safe to say he's your Necas this year

Yep. Watch, they'll invite him to dinner and then draft Podkolzin.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

I'm just pretending Cozens is Mantha and Newhook is Bertuzzi.

 

[Christien]

Broberg looks solid today

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Broberg is a solid guy too. Nice to see.

These regular viewings have been big time for establishing my feelings on Krebs, as well as reassuring my feelings on Zegras from a while back. Both of them possess a level of skill that even on a down night, they still attempt to create high danger chances that could create breakdowns in the defense at any given moment.

Their high level play speaks for itself, as it does for every prospect, but even when it isn’t appearing as a counting stat on the score sheet, are you still generating something with the chance to produce.

Krebs is an absolue dog on the back check too. I'm obviously not a scout but watching him play beside Cozens for like 5 games doesnt mke Cozens look good. I barely saw them erlier in the season and for all we know Cozens could be nursing a small injury or something.

I think Krebs thrives off of that aspect of the game. I don’t know that many top 10 prospects have that much give-a-damn about defensive responsibility the way that he does.

 

[Hen Kolland]

So we might get Canada vs USA for Bronze?

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Sweden's 2020 group seems so strong. Wow.
