Interested to hear from people who have seen him play. Left field pick?

 

[Speyer]

Not exactly impressive offensive numbers, if you factor in the level of the German junior system. His size seems definitely impressive but I wonder if this player wouldt have been still avalible in the later rounds...

 

[KahunWOW]

I watched every Germany game in the WJC.

Can't remember too much in detail, other than Münzenberger was a very nice surprise. Played big minutes if I remember correctly and was not a liability out there at all. I felt relatively comfortable when he was on the ice.

Not sure about 3rd round quality, but his play made it certainly reasonable to draft him imo.

He’s a physical defenceman for sure, he’s got a good first pass and thinks defence first. Oil didn’t select him for his offence. He’s been playing in the German u-20 league since he was a 16 year old and is committed to the U-of Vermont.

Here's some footage from a game in January:

Was solid at the WJC and has now aged out. Won’t be anything more than an Alexei Emelin type guy in the NHL.

Regardless of what he’ll be at the NHL level, he looks like a sure fire NHL player at this point.

I sure hope so, that would be a solid pick for 90th overall.
