Prospect Info: Marlies and Prospects Discussion - 2018/19 Edition V

[Orfieus]

Riley Stotts has a lot of projectable qualities and underrated offensive skill. Now up to 47 PTS in 50 GP. Looks like a really nice 3rd round pick.

he has one more year left before he is a overager?

 

[SeaOfBlue]

he has one more year left before he is a overager?

Yes, but ideally he gets an ELC before then.

 

[Mr Hockey]

SDA as well

 

[LeafChief]

Slick.

 

[Judas Tavares]

Stotts has 33 points in 28 games since Dec. 2.

Is engvall showing any sign of being an nhl player

 

[Mr Hockey]

Is Engvall showing any sign of being an nhl player

I think so, I also think he needs another full season in the AHL

He's come a long way. Definitely the possibility he carves himself out an NHL career.

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

Just saw that Gordeev only has 6 pts in 18 games since his trade to Guelph. Disappointing.

Not great.

I believe he has had at least 1 game at forward too.

 

[Pyromaniac]

Pontus Holmberg started off really strong then fell of a cliff and never recovered. Now he seems to be demoted to the 4th line as ice time keeps dropping. SDA has been similar in the sense that he hasn't raised his stock after showing great promise in camp. Brooks in the games I have watched has been underwhelming.

Doesn't look promising for the C depth in the organization. We are lucky to have Tavares.

I was actually shocked to see how bad of a skater Holmberg is. I like his smarts and situational awareness, and he has a lot of admirable subtleties to his game, but his skating is worse than below average. Even if he manages to improve that part of his game, i'm not sure if it will be enough to make him an NHLer.

 

[Leafs at Knight]

You people realize Holmberg is a 6th round pick right? Of course he has major faults but he's still having a good year for where he was drafted.

 

[drewjenks]

I could see us being a bit more active in the European/NCAA/CHL OA market this off-season. Our prospect system is still fine quality-wise in my opinion, but we could use more options. I really like Felhaber out of Ottawa.

Tye Felhaber | C/LW | OHL | 6'0 | 20 Years Old | 56 GP | 53 G | 95 PTS | 1.70 PTS/G
Justin Brazeau | RW | OHL | 6'6 | 20 Years Old | 54 GP | 48 G | 90 PTS | 1.67 PTS/G

Both would be great signings.

 

[drewjenks]

I would like to see them explore moving Gardiner in a hockey deal for futures and then blending those futures into another acquisition that could help right now. I don't know if we should own rental should be a given, considering how mercurial his playoff track record is. But I am against losing him for nothing. And don't really want to sign him.

I agree with the double move.

In an ideal world we could turn Gardiner into someone like Mayfield or Nutivaara.

Both have great contracts.

 

[Stephen]

SDA looks like a bit of a miscalculation given his lack of pro frame, terrible OHL production.

But I guess you have to draft some duds to find a Debrincat or a Point...

 

[TML1967]

YES!

This is the thing, when you get someone who us super talented and drafted that late, there must be some major flaw holding you back.

I'd rather draft guys late with 1 big flaw that we can just work on until it works, instead of just an all around meh player.

Could be a grt 4th line center down the road

Was invited to the Columba's Blue jackets rookie tournament.

Surprised we didn't invite him to the rookie tournament last yr.

Would love to draft him this yr

Wouldn't waste a pick on him, would offer him an ahl deal though, and he would probably start with the Growlers.

I'd like to add Dunkley as well.

Any time you can find someone with NHL upside in the late rounds, it's a good pick. Holmberg is flawed, but he has upside.

Felhaber signed with Dallas....

Felhaber signed with Dallas but Brazeau would be a good signing with the loss of Grundstrom.

 

[Mr Hockey]

I would at the most offer AHL deals to those over-agers

Maybe he will be another Brooks? but there was no need to have given him an ELC already, Dubas needs to be better.

I think our amateur scouting in North America needs to be a little sharper. Obviously you're not going to get everyone, every draft. They are showing signs of trying to get those hidden gems which I support, but they've picked a lot of guys who haven't exactly taken off post draft.
