LD Caden Price - Kelowna Rockets, WHL (2023, 84th, SEA)

3rd round for this player makes no sense to me.

Don't get it. Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but first rounder all year for me.

Can someone that doesn't like this player explain why? I'd love to hear it so I could understand better.

I think this guy has all the tools. Maybe he's not an ace at anything, but he has the modern game for a defenseman teams look for in a top 4 NHL defenseman.

I think this is why no team really fell in love with him. But I generally agree with you, of all the 2nd round + defencemen I'm the most sure that he will have a career.

Passes like these are going to get you into the NHL:



Still can't believe Seattle stole him in the 3rd.

another 1+1 night.
tbh his defensive play wasn't good tonight, some turnover or mishandling leading to opponents' goals. But he hasn't skated all summer because of an injury, so that's understandable.

3pts tonight, best player on the ice, and have great chemistry with Rocak. i don't know why coach didn't pair him with Rocak in the regular season.

great kid and great family, bright future for him and hoping he gets a look for Canada's WJC team next year
