Prospect Info: CBJ Prospect Thread V

[teebanas]

Just dropping in, I am always on the jets board but when I found out you guys signed Keegan I wanted to come over here and see if anything was said about him or the signing . I grew up with the guy and was friends with him throughout high school. We still remain in touch when we can but he's obviously quite busy.

I can tell you that you have a solid signing here though. Obviously I'm somewhat bias but he's a big fit dude who is committed to making the NHL now, and also a super nice guy except when he's on the ice haha. Congrats and good luck with him!

i just wish we could find an elite offensive dman prospect, our own Ghostisbehere, Theodore, Mountor, Deangelo, etc. Vanino could be it but he's a long ways off, Werenski could be it but i feel like he plays more of a 2 way Dman game

Id rather have a Keith or Doughty then a Klingberg

 

[stevo61]

you mean the keith who has posted over 60 points twice and is usually in the mid-high 40s? you also wouldn't want norris winning defenders? (Karlsson types) thats kinda sad

Is that a knock on Keith or am i misinterpreting you? Keith doesn't put up the same number of points but he also keeps lots off the board. Also Keith has the same number of Norris trophies as Karlsson and also has a Conn Smythe on top of that.

Werenski just named Captain of the WJC team

Honestly, he'd be on the 2nd pairing in Columbus right now. Which tells you:

a)How good he is
b)How bad the Jackets blue line is right now.

Honestly don't think he'd be in the lineup if everyone is healthy this year.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Good for Zach but a part of me thinks he was only named captain because he stuck with the NCAA where as Matthews fled for Switzerland.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Sounds like Milano had a goal and Werenski was solid

Watch out for the Baby Blue Jackets...in 2020

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Collins cut from team USA

 

[Bonin21]

I doubt this is the reason. Is Matthews a known leader? Obviously he's a superstar but he seems pretty quiet so it's hard to tell.

Not surprised on Collins. As a Gopher fan, it's painful to watch him play. Not saying he won't turn a corner. Seth Helgeson was tough to watch and he has a one way contract next year.

 

[WannabeFinn]

So with the Collins cut how many CBJ prospects are left in this tourney? Werenski, Milano, Carlsson.. is that it?

 

[KlichkoBro*]

Yes, that's it.
When was the last time the Jackets didn't have a representative on the team Canada roster? I think they always had at least one since Cody Goloubef won the gold playing alongside PK Subban.

 

[WannabeFinn]

at least all of our prospects in the tourney this year will be in prominent roles on their respective teams

Carlsson didn't look very good today. That whole game was a mess though so probably (hopefully) not a good source to evaluate from.

No one game, good or bad, should be used to evaluate a player.

 

[TheOllieC]

No one game, good or bad, should be used to evaluate a player.

Of course not. Doesn't change anything I said though. NA fans viewings of him are limited, so have to continue watching him to get a feel of the type of player he is. Have to form an opinion eventually.

 

[Fro]

yes, that's it.

[CBJWerenski8]

Gabe Carlsson is on NHLN right now. Milano and Werenski on at 1

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Carlsson couldn't have played that 2 on 1 any worse. Swiss scored

 

[Jackets16]

I've only seen a little bit of the game, but he's looked good to me.

 

[CBJx614]

Wow. Who is this Michael Spacek? Kid has got some patience and hands.

I said the same thing...4th round, 108th [overall] pick of Winnipeg in the '15 draft...I like his game!

Jaroslev's third cousin?
