Speculation: Jacob Bernard-Docker and Shane Pinto NHL arrival? (read OP)

[Dion TheFluff]

with NHL 21 out, I thought it would be fun/interesting to try and add some high caliber player that are not accessible in the game (KHL and NCAA).

I figured the best way to gage the overall of these players would be to ask the fans that (insert player) plays for.

will post results in the EA sport thread

I went a year for JBD and 2 for Pinto.

JBD probably makes the jump from UND right to the NHL imo, Pinto takes a year in the AHL to ready his game and wait for opportunity.

I think they both will need one year in the AHL after this final season at UND.

Nice try Dubas.

My thoughts exactly

Don't ask me to indicate where I saw it, but Dorion gave off the strong impression he expected Jacob-Bernard-Docker to make the jump this year, but noted that he wanted to win a championship and couldn't fault him for going for it.

Expectation is for both of them to make the jump next year, post-trade/tank season 2020-2021.

Anisimov and Tierney will be gone. Norris, Batherson and Stützle is a ton of youth in your top 9, without thinking about White and Tkachuk. That's enough for this year.

Sanderson needs two years at UND as a bit of a physical late bloomers. When the man muscle develops for him, it'll be exciting to see the results.

JBD will be NHL ready after this season at UND. Pinto will likely need a full AHL season.

Josh Norris-like.

Be very interesting to see who eventually wins the 3C between Pinto, Grieg and White.

Definitely! What’s cool is that all 3 of those guys also play wing. Would love to see them form our whole 3rd line unless they become so good they have to play top 6 which would be awesome for us.

I think JBD will play half of 21-22 in the A and the get called up to finish the year in Ottawa. rare for a D prospect to go straight to the NHL needs a little pro conditioning in the minors.

 

[Bileur]

If there was a JBD 1.5 and Pinto 2 I’d have gone with that. I think JBD gets the Karlsson treatment and has a short period in the AHL.

You'll be pleasantly surprised with Pinto. I expect him to challenge Norris for 2nd C spot tbh. Was already among the best all-around players in NCAA as rookie and is a mule infront of the net with an beautiful release/shot.

What is the track record of any college players even making this team over the last 10 years?

 

[Xspyrit]

It really doesn't matter what the percentages are, you've openly stated you are not watching hockey,you've openly stated that you were not familiar with a prominent player that just signed here but here you are every day posting your negative nonsense...you've acknowledged you don't have a clue...so seriously wtf is the point of you being here?

So all this time I was arguing for nothing about Bobby Ryan.. Great to know. It was a great use of my time.

I mean Dadonov came back in the NHL in 2017-18. It's impossible to NOT know who he was if you are following the NHL. Ryan struggles started around that time too.

Well, 100% of the players drafted in the 1st round by Ottawa out of college in the last 10 years have become impact players in the NHL.

Did I miss something with Shane Bowers?

He went to college after being drafted. Like most players who go the college route. Just like White and JBD
