[Judas Tavares]

Another OHL centre. What is his scouting report like?

 

[BIitz]

Would have preferred Buckles, but this is a nice piece.

 

[SprDaVE]

From Toronto. Really like this one. Good potential here.

 

[showtime8]

Absolutely love this pick.

I can already see the trend with the Leafs this year. Very responsible 2 way forwards.

 

[ChrisCall]

I know nothing about this player,
But i love that he's local.

 

[RomanianLeafs]

followed this kid all season long and always draft him at nhl 2013..great great pick

 

[BIitz]

Another OHL centre. What is his scouting report like?

From what I've seen, though limited: Nice passer, good long reach. Not afraid to get into the corners and play a cycle game as well as take abuse, but he isn't going to be a hitter. IIRC he killed penalties.

He could really blossom if given a good chance.

 

[James Duthie]

Don't know nothing about him lol.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Love this guy, he could be a sleeper pick. Have to be patiejnt with him.

 

[Drew311]

He'll have a big role with the Ice Dogs next season with Strome moving on.

 

[HarrisonFord]

Could anyone familiar with his game provide a comparable?

this...very happy...

Don't know nothing about him lol.

so obviously you know something.. based on your statement (double negative).

What is it that you know about him?

 

[showtime8]

Don't know nothing about him lol.

Responsible 2 way centre. Skates well and a pretty good motor.

Should see better numbers without Strome and Ritchie taking a lot of ice time.

 

[BIitz]

Could anyone familiar with his game provide a comparable?

Maybe Marcel Goc? I could see him as a good defensive forward who has some 3rd line/2nd line tweener in him at the next level.

 

[huge*]

Future all star

 

[I am Canadian]

He's a leaf fan

 

[BayStBullies]

2 solid picks now and they acquired Bolland; it's been going better than could be expected with the picks they had. I hope they keep it up; but of course the later rounds are hard to call.

 

[TMLife*]

followed this kid all season long and always draft him at nhl 2013..great great pick

How does he turn out in the game?

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Maybe Marcel Goc? I could see him as a good defensive forward who has some 3rd line/2nd line tweener in him at the next level.

Another similar OHL player like him is Brady vail actually.

 

[VanW27]

Strome and Shipley, Niagara's top 2 centres moving on to pro hockey this year.

He should be in a good spot as far as getting an opportunity to be a key player for Niagara next season.

 

[Amadeus]

They must really like him to choose him over Jimmy Lodge!

 

[ULF_55]

This draft is so disappointing!



So who is Verhaeghe?

 

[JMcLeaf]

Is he like Greg Mckegg?
