I was doing a bit of reading on McKeen's Hockey on some random prospects when I came upon this scouting projection on former Colorado Avalance prospect (curently in the Capitals pipeline), Jonas Johansson:
I figure that a prospect better be damn amazing and dominant at his level to be projected to be an "elite NHL star." Especially if they say it is a matter of "when, not if" he will become a star.
Anyone else have any similar gems like this they can share? One of my favorites was the Jason Bonsignore-Mario Lemieux comparison.
Projection: It is not so much a matter of if Johansson will become a star, but a matter of when. On some organizations he would likely be in the NHL aleady, but the Avalanche have the depth to let him become a little more accustomed to the North American lifestyle while playing in the WHL. He could challenge for a spot as early as next season. He projects as an elite NHL star.
