26. There isn’t as much action on CHL kids because most get drafted before free agency is reality. One who has captured attention if Zack MacEwen of QMJHL Gatineau. Ottawa, Tampa, Toronto and Vancouver are all believed to be among those interested. He was invited to Anaheim’s camp last September.
Is there a reason that there are so many teams interested in this guy? Nothing about him stands out to me..

How often have you seen him play?
Never, and that's why I'm asking because nothing on his stat sheet stands out to me. I get the progression and the truculence, but there seems to be a lot of those kind of players available without multiple NHL teams scouting them.
I'd call going from Jr A at 18 to a point per game overager in the Q standing out in terms of looking at his stats.
Sometimes players, especially bigger players, develop later as they're still getting used to using their adult body.
For all anyone knows this guy hasn't even scratched the surface of his potential.

Isn't PPG for an overager kind of underwhelming? If we drafted him with Nylanders draft I don't think would be too happy with him barely hitting PPG.
Not to poo-poo the idea of course, I've never seen him play. If Leafs management thinks there is something there that is good enough for me.

barely PPG as an overager is a bit underwhelming. Even as a late bloomer who's main job isn't to score I'm not sure it's worth the contract spot. We only have 50 and we couldn't find room for Brooks this past year, Bracco, and Dzierkals presumably will become Marlies this next year and need contracts, along with some other CHL maybes(Deroscher, Korotstelev, Walker) and maybe Grundstrom, or Korshkov? We have a handful of UFA's and some RFA's we won't want back this offseason, but not sure it'll be enough to fill all the incoming prospects and a couple likely NHL veterans we'll sign, even if it's only depth.
Not sure this guy is worth potentially tightning the screws even further on what could already be a tight offseason contract situation.
