C Mavrik Bourque (2020, 30th, DAL)

[eartotheground]

im probably out to lunch, but damn I love this kid. Obviously it’s hard to compare since Pasta was playing against men from age 17, but mavrik reminds me so much of Pasternak in terms of overall offensive skill set matched with top end positional awareness

uh, i'll take it. pasta lite would be just fine for the stars.

Pasta is more of a sniper while Bourque is more of a playmaker though. Not the best comparison IMO.

68 points in 31 regular season games last season...here are the highlights. Just incredible vision and IQ

Appreciate your hard work on these highlights!

This kid is a stud. Stay healthy and he is the Stars best prospect.

 

[WhatWhat]

Man these 3 Dallas prospects have me way too hyped. Having 3 of the top forward prospects is insane, and the fact that all 3 play drastically different styles is amazing. Pure IQ and playmaking from Bourque, gritty scoring touch from Stank and Overall effective 200 foot player in Johnston. Man I hope one of the 3, if not 2, force Nills hand in the the preseason

Each had monstrous seasons, but it’s impossible to say definitively today that any one is better than another. It’s not impossible those three could be Dallas’ first line a few years down the line…that would be fun.

Its the weirdest conundrum but they are all right shots. Pavs retires and ones goes with Roope and Robo on the RW and the other 2 go C - RW for lines 2.

Down the line-----

Robo - Hintz - Stank
A body - Mav/Wyatt - Mav/Wyatt

sure seemed like mav was on the lw for all those one timers.

Yeah, despite all being RHS a line of

Bourque-Johnston-Stankoven

fits pretty well how each player likes to work, at least in the offensive end.

[Artorius Horus T]

5 points, 1 goal in 6 AHL games last season.
Scores a goal in game 1.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Any updates Stars fans?

 

[piqued]

He's been moved up to center the Cedar Park 1st line with AHL vets Barber and Kero. His production has been increasing as the year goes along and seems to be earning the coaching staff's trust.

 

[LT]

He probably starts next year in the AHL still, but he should get at least a chance in the NHL by the end of next season.

Very unlikely he gets a call-up this year.

 

[Hull Fan]

I imagine Blumel will get the Seguin spot and they'll wait on Mav but next pre-season there's going to be open spots and he's got a good chance to land a space alongside Stankoven. He brings a lot similar to Domi which is what Dallas has desperately needed.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

First 23 games in the AHL : 2 goals, 5 assists, 7 points
Next 41 games in the AHL : 15 goals, 19 assists, 34 points.

 

[Antonche]

Bourque on fire. 6 goals in last 3 games

 

[Hull Fan]

I'll call my shot. He replaces Domi between Seguin and Marchment next season with Stankoven going on Benn and Johnston's line.

 

[Lavar Ball]

 

[WADEugottaBELAKthat]

Finally! I was wondering when his pure skill level was going to take over. Tough start. Lots of cause for optimism now, though.

 

[oconnor9sean]

Dallas being able to add all of Johnston, Stankoven and Borque to their team over the course of 12-18 months is nuts.

They’ve drafted AND developed really well of late. Impressive stuff with late 1sts and early 2nds.

Underrated juggernaut coming. What a franchise changer has Robertson been.

He slides everyone down a spot on the roster and it allows for guys like Benn, Hintz, Stankoven, Bourque, Dellandrea and Johnston to be in the right chair, or even a luxury.

Without Robertson the Stars would like somewhat like the Red Wings, but Robertson somehow makes them comparable to the very best team in the league. Wish my team was this friggin lucky for once.
