Anderson was listed at 6-1, 183 pounds on his draft profile. If Tuch grows correspondingly over the years, he'll be the size of Chara.

He has exceeded expectations. The Athletic just did a nice piece on him. His college coach raves about him and compares him to Brady Tkachuk, which is pure hyperbole but nevertheless nice to hear he can at least play that style.
The nice thing is we have a kid with some size. So many of today's players are all based on skill and no grit. This kid has both, along with his size. Just let him marinate in college for a while. No rushing these kids.

McGuire? Ya he said that, wanted to trade Subban in his prime for the Yakupov pick. He has as many horrible takes as good takes he just doesn’t bring it up ever again.

there's just something about his straight line skating that I think needs work, but he makes really good turns. I was a terrible skater (didn't start till I was 13) so i'm not great at judging the finer details of skating.

That’s not what McGuire said at all. He said just prior & repeated again at 2012 draft broadcast, if he was Edm he would offer #1 overall pick to Habs for Subban.

Josh Anderson has elite speed, Tuch never will - watched him play lots of prep school, I think he needs 3-years at NCAA but he’ll be good & nasty

Let's hope it's not because he's been too busy playing videogamesPost-draft, he has no tweets and 2 instagram posts. That's the kind of attitude you expect from a Bergevin player

It's Alex Tuch, not Adam Tuch.
You're such a smartypants, Alex Michaels
Anderson without the straight line speed would not be a top 6 player. I don't see Tuch being one either, but he does enough things right that is fine.

I think that even with his speed Anderson is barely a top 6 player.
A top 9 in a stacked team.
Anderson is big, strong and fast and a good wrist shot.
But
He has no vision whatsoever and he has not good hands in tight areas.
He is about a 25-15 player ( 40 points)
I love him btw and we clearly need player like that but too often this season he had open teammates with easy pass to do and he was face down all the time driving the net sometimes for nothing...

So if you are property of the Montreal Canadiens and your brother is playing for the Vegas Golden Knights in the conference finals vs the Canadiens... who do you cheer for?

a given since he was there last year, fully expect him to make the WJC team in December.

Just saw that Jay Pandolfo is leaving his NHL job with boston to join his alma mater as assoc head coach at BU. Should be good for Tuch to learn from him with all his NHL experience.
