Prospect Info: [2022 - 26th] Filip Mesar (OHL - Kitchener Rangers)

[HankyZetts]

Well because he had a rather pedestrian end to the regular season. He’s 5’10 and 170lbs and doesn’t provide much defensively. So he better show a lot more offensively for us to think he’ll have an impact in the NHL. His PPG in the CHL didn’t really improve much from last year. To classify it as anything other than disappointing would be a mistake.

I respectfully disagree. I think he has tremendous potential on the defensive side of the game. He has all the tools, he really just needs coaching and experience

Excited to see this kid develop with our new development team in the pros next year.

510 and 170lba? He is the anti-Slaf.

 

[Bombshell11]

By far their best player

Three guys of the same kind. Maybe one of them will play at NHL level.

they are in the no mans land size-wise.. while jack of all trades are nice, each player needs to be "dominant" at one contributing factor.. neither of them are.

There's like 100 x Rehkopfs in the OHL, only one Mesar

 

[HankyZetts]

Rehkopf looks to me like he'll need a lot of work to bring his game to the NHL. I wouldn't trade mesar for him

Okay well that’s not much to go on is it

Mesar is more skilled than Ferrell.

Mesar can absolutely bust. It’s hardly a forgone conclusion though at this point is all I’m going to say.

He’s got fantastic tools

mesar ain't playing in the NHL either at this point... at best a Sven Andreghetto type guy.. total whatever.

We absolutely don't know that yet. That may very well happen but damn can we give him until he about 22?

At least Mesar can skate.
