C Connor McMichael - London Knights, OHL (2019, 25th, WSH)

[EXTRAS]

I really like McMichael as a prospect. It's unfortunate he can't play in the AHL next year, but if you have to stay in Junior in Canada, London is definitely one of the programs you prefer him to be in. It would be cool if he could go to Sweden or Switzerland, but that just won't happen.

Honestly, he was good this year at the World Juniors, but he didn't dominate. It would be nice for him to go as an 19 year old and really be a top 5 player at the tournament, regardless of which league he is in next year. Maybe another year in junior will let him develop higher end scoring abilities. Not sure he is ready to be a dominant player against men next year.

Another 3+1 today. 5th hat trick of the season.

 

[Trinstin]

Maybe I'm alone but I just want him to become one of the best players so that we can see the mcmichael vs mcdavid headlines. Then mcdonalds can become a massive sponsor and we'll see toys and milk shakes based off of the mc's.

Currently on pace for 129 points in 58 games which is the most since Dylan Strome hit 129 points in 68 games in 2014-15. If he could raise the pace 1 point to 130 then he would have the most points since Kane and Tavares in 06-07.

Pretty mint.

Rossi is actually slightly out pacing him right now. Which is very wild for both of them considering the comparable you just brought up.

Love Mcmichael, his hockey sense and IQ coupled with his release is absolutely deadly.

 

[DontEverTouchMyPuck]

When you watch him live, and you see him ... there's a moment ... when the puck settles on his blade, and he loads his stick .. you just know it.
Absolute money.

 

[Howard Beale]

Last year he scored 72 points in 67 games.

This year he has 72 points in 33 games.

Barring a trade there really isn't a spot for him next year but they'll have to figure something out. He misses being able to play in the AHL by 15 days but I can't see how another year of juniors is beneficial to him.

Minnesota will take him off your hands if you need

Give us kaprizov in return and it's a deal

Lol appreciate it but I think the Caps will be happy keeping him. Their forward prospect pipeline was the worst in the NHL until last year’s draft. Adding McMichael, Leason, and Protas in one year has helped but it’s still pretty thin. I think CMM is the most hyped forward prospect the Caps have had since Kuznetsov.

 

[EXTRAS]

3 goals and 1 assist tonight. Leading the CHL in points per game now with 2.22 pt/gm

 

[Artorius Horus T]

What?, like 6th or 7th hat trick of the season?....lol.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

So..... in 36 games played.

37 goals
43 assists
80 points
178 shots on goal
+27

12 pp goals
19 pp assists
31 pp points
3 sh goals

336/585 at face-offs
57.4 face-off %

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Would be interesting to make a McMichael highlight video but....37 goals, 80 points?.....eesh.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

3rd player OA to be picked from the OHL last year. 25th OA. He's got some crazy D+1 stats. 37 goals in 37 games, 83 points. Also comes from the successful London Knights program. Why can't more teams find players like this? It's the Caps again.

Or, when its not the caps its the pens...

He's really a good looking player. The add here is he comes from a proven program in developing NHL talent, London and the Hunter brothers. I have not done a redraft for this draft, but he is definitely a candidate to go higher than where he went.

Is OHL scoring up over average? It has to be.

Yes, but I attribute it all to McMichael

Burakovsky had plenty of hype as well. Either way McMichael is trending very well.

He's leading the OHL (and CHL) in pt/gm though, so regardless of whether the OHL scoring is up or not, he's still ahead of all his current peers.
