F Cole Caufield - USNTDP Juniors, USHL (2019, 15th, MTL)

[OmNomNom]

is his lack of assists troubling? or not even, with the assumption that a team in the NHL pairs him w a creative center

No he’s been a solid playmaker all year he’s just usually the one finishing the play.

i also feel like he's gonna go top 6 this draft. he's making a crazy case for himself

 

[Artorius Horus T]

3 goals in first game, 3 goals already in his second game, with 2 helpers.

3 helpers... Even if they gave one of his assists to Boldy.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Caufield gets his 4th

 

[thelittlecoon]

No chance he falls to 10. I’m not getting my hopes up.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Guy is ridiculous.

He would be 1st overall if he was Hughes’ size.

 

[ijuka]

Caufield should now have 4 goals and 3 assists in this game.

The goal-scoring record IIRC is by Alex Ovechkin with 14 goals.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Incredible player. A lock for top 10 at this point.

 

[SI90]

Kids a player. Can flat out score.

 

[chewbaccaman]

Better than Debrincat don’t @ me

 

[Jabba11]

5ft7...11 Stanley Cups. Size is not all that matters

Henri Richard Stats and News

Henri was 5 foot 7, but the rocket was 5 foot 11...
- sometimes brothers do come in two different sizes

I think Caufield will go top 10.

It won't be to his benefit tho that smaller guys like Point and Gaudreau are struggling in playoffs otherwise if say he has a chance at top 6

He doesn't play the game like those players, though. And that honestly is an extraordinarily stupid narrative. Players are individuals. You can cherry pick big players who struggle in the playoffs as well, and create a narrative off that.

 

[McDNicks17]

62 goals in 49 games since his slow start(3 goals in 10 games), if I'm not mistaken.

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Better than Debrincat don’t @ me

I agree. Better skater and defensive player.

 

[nucksflailtogether]

Chance at 3rd overall maybe?

It's tougher for all players in the playoffs. Less time and space than the regular season overall. Makes it extra tough for smaller guys.

It depends on the style of play as well. Patrick Kane for example doesn't struggle in the playoffs.

 

[ProspectsSTC]

I had him rated 6th going in...can't believe he's forcing my hand this hard here

 

[alcolol]

I don't see how Caufield, who is an elite scorer, makes it past both Buffalo and Edmonton, teams with young, elite centers in need of equally-talented wingers.

Yeah if he's still there for us at 8, I hope we take him.

 

[GetFocht]

He will still go in the range of 8-12 in the draft, wingers will always slip.
