I just wanted to make a thread due to his performance this season, although he has only played 10 games this season, yes its limited, but he makes very limited mistakes, handles his size quite well, has a nice shot and is a fairly damn good skater for his size. And oh yeah, he'll be the most feared player in the game, if he isn't already.

So going 10th overall, missing out on Vlad. He's looking like a solid pick so far when everyone including myself has counted him out.

Color me suprised. Normally big physical D drafted high dont work out. Great for him. His tool kit is great with that size

Hopefully Reinhart follows suit

 

[caymanmew]

he does not even have a point yet

i know he is a D but still i don't see how this is post worthy. unless we make a habit of posting ever time a prospect has 10 decent games to start their career

 

[HisIceness]

Evertime I see a post or thread regarding this guy, I think of Pierre McGuire upset that Cam Fowler/Brandon Gormley were still available. Good times.

The main reason why I made this a thread is the fact that everyone practically scratched him on his chances to be an NHL player, and considering he was drafted so high. Ranger fans considered him as a waste and wouldn't amount to anything. So for him playing like a top-4 defensemen at a young age is making him become a laughing stock to a fan favorite.

His role is not to put up points, he's not a offensive d or a forward.. He plays a physical, and plays a solid defensive game. The points will come in spurts.

He's 23 and has developed into quite a player. Young defensemen don't make a impact right away, and he's making an impact on the Rangers d line.

He's never been projected to be a huge point getter.

It's post worthy because in his ten games, he has been the Rangers 2nd best d-man.

He's also been an advanced stats darling. He had a +21 corsi last night.

Defensively sound, has a nice first pass, physical, good skater for his size, poised.

He's a guy I was hoping would be exposed to waivers. He's got limited upside, but he should be a good bottom pairing guy for a long time. That said, no he won't be the most feared player in the league. Those are guys who are more mobile and play big minutes

"Great pick" and whatnot.

Has Teubert even played an NHL game?

I think he meant "most feared" as in physically imposing. A guy that you don't really want to piss off.

I was browsing for opinions on his play a little earlier on the Rangers board. Saw someone taking him over Fowler. Decided to leave as quietly as I came.

He's that player you need on your team knowing if you go after a star or a young player. Just know "The Wrath" is coming for you. He'll be a valuable piece even if he only becomes a bottom pairing dman.

I still believe he has the potential to be a good top 4 d-man. at least a #4.

Your gonna want more value than that from a 10th overall pick. Seems like a wasted pick, unless he becomes a legit top 4 guy.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Depending on if his offensive game develops, he can be top 2 dman. But I do not want to overrate him, he's playing well, I just want the rest of the league to take notice that this kid is no joke. He'll be good, but how good? We'll find out!

Ehhh, not really. Most first round picks do not make the NHL, if he can become a NHL regular, that'll be success. I'll be happy if he is a heart and soul, tough player that protects the team and plays a solid defensive role.

Taking a gander at 2010 draft

El Nino- solid pick but probaly a Beniot Pouliot type career
Connolly- Bottom sixer type career
Burmistorv- Bottom 6
Campbell- Back up goalie maybe?
Gormley- Bottom pairing
Forbort- cant comment

Bottom line/ bottom pairing is pretty unique in this range. Only Fowler/Schwartz/Tarasenko seem to have top line upside (they are at it)

Bottom pairing would be good, but hes still got top 4 upside

Played some in Edmonton in the dark days of 2011. Hes now the Shea Weber of the DEL

This thread is absurd. 10 games. He has not proven a thing and he isn't looking like a solid pick. He is still a question mark who will probably be a mean #5/6. That isn't a very solid #10 overall.

Ive always maintained it takes 5 years for the draft to play out before you can re-evalute. So 5 years later hes doing solid in the NHL. 10 games is still something. Hes rocking a 52% FF% so he must be doing something right

Hes also been good in the AHL I understand

Fair enough. Good luck to him.

Bottom pairing would be good, but hes still got top 4 upside

Other notable first rounders that year include Fowler, Bjugstad, Hayes, Kuznetsov, Coyle, Brock Nelson.

What others do doesnt impact DM right now. Its sunk cost

He played very well vs the isles. Was possibly even the rangers best defender (had a bad giveaway though too). Was very surprised by him, whom i have seen as a bust up to now. Let's see how he developes...
