I'm not saying Babchuk is the best, but he's as good as any defenseman prospect right now.

debatable........but chicago's writers for this site had him ranked higher than Cam Barker(which i personally dont agree with, but whatever)

 

[X-SHARKIE]

IMO.

Barker
Babchuk
Seabrook


I saw Babchuk twice live last year and once on T.V. durring the All star game. He's the real deal.

Which means you think he's at least tied for the best. How contradictory.

Try again. Being "tied for best" does not mean "better than everyone."


What a worthless post.

Not as worthless as yours. Was I talking to you? You obviously don't think Markov's post was contradictory. I do.

I didn't think his post was contradictory.

Although it wasn't accurate either, IMO.

As you probably know, my first language is french but I also speak english very well. Anyway...

What I meant is that Babchuk has a very high upside, and that yeah, he could be the best defenseman out of the group on young defensemen in hockey.

Aggre if were talking a bout peak potential...

If I had to draft them I would pick Babchuck 1st cansidering he's almost a sure thing for a decent NHL performance. I consider the other 2 as gamble right now...

I've seen him a few times down here in Norfolk. And probably will see him a few more times before the season's over.

What I can say from the first few games is he's a big kid with a strong shot. He's pretty solid as far as positioning goes, though the Coach for Norfolk doesn't really have faith in him on the PK so much. His shot is really heavy, but it takes him a while to get it off. And it's not as accurate as it could/should be. Lastly, he's really a target for others as far as roughing, and hitting and picking on. Other teams seem to want to try to get him to take a stupid penalty. Which he's done a time or two. And on another note, he sure can't fight. One fight I did see vs Hershey, he got in one weak punch and spent the rest of it getting pummeled.
