Player Discussion Jakub Lauko

[Colt.45Orr]

3x faster than JVR

 

[Over the volcano]

3x faster than JVR

And he's on the rise.

 

[Raleighfern]

hes improved a lot since the beginning of the year. he covers his wing well, I see him breaking up plays between the red line and our blue line often because of his impressive speed. taking him out of the lineup, regardless if he's on the 3rd or 4th line takes away from our team speed and we need all we an get. but, he doesn't produce. i'm rooting hard for him to pot a few.

Just needs to go to the net more and crash and bang

Lauco's like the forward equivalent of a defensive defenseman. While he doesn't produce many points, he's a disrupter of other teams' offenses through his fast, physical forechecking and hustle. He needs more ice time (probably at the expense of JVR).

He'd be a great Panther with their system.

 

[SwayHeyKid]

4th most GP from any player drafted in round 3 of the 2018 draft

He did announce to the media on draft day that him getting picked in the 3rd round made him the steal of the draft!

Let's hope we never have to find out.

Loved the pick, I wanted him in round 2

He's improved from AHL to NHL Jag level 2

I think He’s ultimately a 20-30 point guy in the league who will skate, hit, drop them occasionally, draw penalties, and agitate

I thought he was bad at the start of the year but now I think he’s playing solid hockey. He doesn’t have good hands, don’t expect a ton of points and you’ll like him

Honestly nothing to indicate he’ll be a 20-30 point guy. He’s had a lot of runway and he just doesn’t seem to generate any offense whatsoever.

Honestly, I don’t care if he has 10 points a year or 20, he isn’t here to produce points. As long as he keeps hitting everything that moves he is doing fine. Only 24, I bet he can add some more mass over the next few years too.

If you want that out of him you have to staple him to the 4th line then...

 

[Colt.45Orr]

He should be 4th line RW permanently. Move JB up w JDB and sit JVR

I think playing him anywhere else is foolish so sure!

Well he’s at 15 in 76 career games, that ain’t really all that far off from 20 and I do expect he’ll continue to improve with more nhl experience. So to say “nothing” indicates that is wrong imo. You may not think he gets there and that’s fine, but you’re acting like he has no chance.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

He reminds me a lot of M. Backlund at this stage in his career
