Prospect Info: Dominik Bokk (2018 Draft - 25th overall)

[The Winter Soldier]

Thanks for the update. When Armstrong traded up with Dubas at a very small price a 3rd to get Bokk. I thought it was one of the biggest steals of the draft. This kid is going to a pleasure to watch one day in the NHL.

Keep them highlights coming!

Unfortunately I can never find a good link to a stream for Vaxjo games or it’s during a bad time of day for me.

Market inefficiency. I think we are seeing it here, and the fair amount of NCAA picks the last couple of years. I think it's a strong talking point in the draft room.

 

[Jordeau]

Thanks for the links. The no-look pass from behind the net on the assist was sick!

Glad to see him getting off to a hot start to the regular season. I was able to watch a couple of his SHL pre-season and championship league games live a few weeks ago before he came over for Traverse. I was a bit underwhelmed, but you can definitely see flashes of high end talent. He's got a lot of learning to do when of comes to rounding out his game, but that's to be expected for someone who grew up playing in "lesser" development leagues in Germany.

Oh my, his skill set and that line combo with Pontus Holmberg and Jonas Röndbjerg are going to rock.

 

[PenDuhNotPittsburgh]

Is it just me or does he really look EXACTLY like Pavel Bure?

Don't know if this has been posted before, but Dominik Bokk is playing för Rögle BK in Sweden next season.

Here is a quick interview with him:

[Em etah Eh]

Love the little between the legs touch pass he makes in there.

 

[CaliforniaBlues310]

This kid just oozes skill. I can’t wait to have him on this team in a few years.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

He tries to pull that shit in the big leagues and he will be summarily slammed to ice.

 

[simon IC]

He tries to pull that **** in the big leagues and he will be summarily slammed to ice.

I was just thinking that! Bokk has a long way to go. Cute dipsy-doodle moves like that will get him killed in the NHL (or even AHL!).

The play at 6:30? I mean he was in the middle of the ice so yeah there’s a better chance somebody puts a body on him in the NHL there, but as soon as the puck got to him he dished it off.

 

[Oberyn]

Are you guys really getting worked up over a little flash of skill by Bokk? Plays like that happen in the NHL too and I have yet to see the perpetrator get slammed to the ice. If ROR made that play in the NHL, everyone on this board would be going nuts over it. God forbid a young player decides to show some creativity.

I agree.

I'm also going to point out that the majority of those highlights are Bokk doing simple, correct passing plays. He's not making a habit of throwing the puck through a crowd of people hoping that it connects to his target. He's using his superb puck-handling effectively. Even the between-the-legs play was a smart move to make, if not the right move, in that situation. He's a right-handed shot on bad angle with the majority of the defensive line to his front. A shot there would have a low chance of going in because it would have either been a backhand or would have taken too long to readjust. Instead, he passes it to open space for a brilliant scoring chance.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Let’s hope he doesn’t go the way of Linus Olmark.

 

[NuxFan09]

Cool that he's playing for Rogle BK next season. That's where our 2nd round pick this summer - Nils Hoglander - will be playing. Maybe we see them play together?

 

[Blues0307]

Bokk has higher upside than any forward prospect we have. His vision is incredible, has great playmaking ability, and a wicked wrist shot. There's a lot to like about this kid.

Kyrou.

 

[Blueston]

Kyrou.

Kyrou is safer choice and certainly closer to ready, but I agree with Blues0307 take that Bokk has higher upside.

Agreed. Bokk looks to have some similarities to Panarin, but obviously the floor isn’t the same level as his.

 

[EastonBlues22]

I prefer Kyrou's offensive game to Bokk's, and I liked both prior to us drafting them.

 

[WeWentBlues]

A few one-timer goals in action. Wouldn't that be nice to have?

Amateur Scout: 'So this kid has a great one timer.....'

Blues fan: 'SOLD!'

Amateur Scout: 'But I just started my report...'

Blues fan: 'Shhhhhh... you had me at one timer.'
