Would love to hear your thoughts on him, as I consider you to be a very knowledgeable poster of all things WHL.
What do you see as his possible realistic potential? Possible #4 or more of a #5-6 guy? Comparables?
I wasn't able to get to the rookie camps here in Winnipeg, but those that did and posted about it on the Jets board said that Yuen's skating is off the charts. They weren't commenting on speed, but his mobility, and I guess his edge work.
I could see him as a solid #3 or #4 guy. He's an unreal skater, handles the puck well and has a great shot. Plays physical, doesn't back down from contact and reads the play amazing well. Likely projects to be a guy who plays both a penalty kill and 2nd PP unit.
Not really sure as far as comparables go. I like to use my comparisons to let people know who a player resembles on the ice and Yuen is an interesting player to watch. There's not many players that resemble his style of game.
