Prospect Info: Habs Development Camp 2014

[QuebecPride]

Yeah, he is older, for sure.. but hey, Gadoury scored a lot of goals in the regular season and play-offs for the Mooseheads.. He has some talent, can't hurt to take an extended look at him.

I'm happy we invited Gadoury, hey I wanted him in the 7th round. But Audette is clearly a better prospect to me. If he keeps on improving in the future as he did last year, we picked up a steal in the 5th.

Really just a rumor....nothing really serious.....but Mads Eller "could" also be invited.

Seems he got more than one....

Mads Eller tells me he's already received several camp invites so he'll be going to one. Hasn't decided which yet.

But he's a midget so he can't possibly ever improve or make the NHL because nobody under 6'2 and 250 lbs has

Seems that we invited Marc-Olivier Crevier from the Olympiques. Never really was interested in him. Nothing to see prospect. But will re-assess when I'll see him. Still with so many interesting names....that's coming out of left field....yet again. That type of day.

That's actually the guy I was really happy to see amongst our invites. Chip on his shoulder + don't forget that was only his first "half" year in the Q. Ahead of Beauregard at the same age except positionning, especially as far as speed is concerned. Beauregard got invited by the Bruins.

Of course, Goulet is the best player at this point. Should really, really have been drafted.

Imama is.... interesting. Shouldn't have been invited on play alone, but he really progressed in the last year. My guess is they're keying on that progression.

Gadoury isn't bad, but I don't really like him. Didn't see him THAt much though.

 

[L4br3cqu3]

Happy that Goulet and Gadoury have been invited, especially Goulet. Imama and Crevier are very 'meh'... hope Wolff, Mangiapane, Clarke, Baillie and Prophet are invited too. Oh, and Daniel Muzito Bagenda... and perhaps Tyler Hill and Gustav Rydahl...

Also, I believe the NCAA kids have to make it on their own to those camps, so that certainly makes the pool smaller. I'm not sure if it's the same for USHL/Junior A kids who want to attend the american college system though. Would it affect their NCAA eligibility to accept to get to an NHL camp with their plane tickets / hotel / food paid?

The rule for NCAA players has to do to with the kids getting what the NCAA considers compensation, so they are forced to pay their own way so that they aren't seen by the NCAA as getting money to play. The rule is the same for current NCAA players and all incoming players as it would affect their NCAA eligibility but both sides are aware of the issues so I'm sure they would know they can't offer plane tickets/hotel.

Okay thanks.

What I meant by that is that it might hurt our case with some players, especially Americans who have to make their to the camp on their own. A kid from Mass or RI would probably chose Boston before Montréal due to the fact that it's closer

Player over 6' can't play hockey

Player over 6' can't play hockey

That is true.

At least Sam Ananas is here. He looks like he could be intriguing. Same with Gaboury. Did he play with Ehlers/Drouin ? That's an impressive goal scoring rate.

Mostly with Drouin/Ashley. Sometimes with Drouin/Ehlers.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

The list is kinda underwhelming this year, I don't see anyone of them pulling a Lefrebvre/Fournier and getting a contract. Although you never know I guess...

I think as soon as Fournier accepted to come to the habs he was guaranteed a contract.

Would be great if we invited Mads Eller.

 

[Whitesnake]

I'd know we did it in the past.....but it's a development camp. Maybe we should invite guys that are 6'3'' and up but slow skaters and see if they have the technique or the ability to improve their skating. As tons of exercices are about that. And since we cherish big and bigger, well might as well have an idea on those guys also than all the 5'11'' we are inviting and that won't amoutn to anything. Except Gadoury and Goulet as I said before. Highmore also is fine.

But true that I don't expect any contracts at the end of this so far......But I reserve the right to see them at least 2 times to have a final judgment.

Werent those two past their draft eligibility year ? Morin and Imama were 2014 eligible, and as such, I don't expect them to get anything.

Both have decent size and may even gain a few inches at this point. Its also safe to say that they absolutely need those inches to even have the chance of amounting to something.

​

Are any of these players better prospects than Brady Vail?

I haven't seen them play, maybe someone who has seen them play can comment. Just wondering if they are worth a contract, which Brady wasn't.

Also surprised Lukas Sutter got re-drafted but not Brady Vail, any one have info on what Brady did to get blacklisted by the NHL?

The kid has magic hands.. Good hockey sense.. Bigger than he's listed height wise.. He can flat out score goals. I like him more than Audette.

You are comparing junior players 2 years apart, that's a big difference at that age.

Plus Gadoury gets to play with Drouin, Ashley, Ehlers etc type players, while Audette's best teammate is Tim Wieser.

 

[Whitesnake]

Seems that we lost Eller and Sautner to Coyotes. Big time Oil Kings reunion down there since Coyotes had drafted Samuelsson, Kulda and Mayo already...

I know that Gadoury is 2 years older and has better teammates, Doesn't change the fact I like Gadoury's style of play better. Audette may (he was drafted ahead, obviously) have a higher ceiling as a prospect. I still like Gadoury's game more.
