I always thought this guy was a pooh disturber?

 

[ACC1224]

Is he really call Nicks?

Ha, best of both worlds!

 

[A1LeafNation]

Can't believe he is the RD we always needed.

You are somehow mixing him up with TWS.... lol

No that was skidmark

Not necessarily, he plays the game hard like Komarov but with obvious more skill. Doesn't start crap but does his job effectively, hard on the puck.

This kid wants it. His training videos are intense and his hands ares silky smooth. He is doing everything right and I hope it turns into an elite player.

 

[Wafflewhipper]

He must have been drafted pre-Dubas,he’s good and we know Dubas does no good right. This guy is a serious draft steal. His release is deceptive and quick and hard already. That alone gives a player a Nhl chance. Many just don’t have that snap in their release.

There is not a snowballs chance in hell he plays in the Ohl next year so i hope he can build for his endurance enough to take a regular shift with the Leafs. Ahl wouldn’t hurt but this Chl rule is obstructing the right development path now. It needs to be fixed because he could use a year in the Ahl if it was deemed necessary.

Do you have access to these videos to post? I wouldn’t mind seeing a couple of them if you could post them

Give it a year or two in this board and we'll just find someone who will come up with a goofy nickname.

Robertson sounds ready to get a job again. The kid has his head screwed on right. Leafs prospect Robertson: 'My eyes are on the NHL right now'

 

[SnizzMitch]

Maybe I’m overreacting a bit too much but at this point, I’ll be shocked if he doesn’t turn into the next Patrick Kane.

perhaps just a tad

In all seriousness we're long past overdue grabbing a star outside the first round.

maybe this kid is finally it, who knows

when drafted people complained he's a typical Dubas pick, taking only "smurfs"...now those same people have done a 180 in terms of what they think of the pick. It's almost as if draft day reactionary posters are silly af.

I don't think he's anything like Patty Kane?

I am hoping for a prime Hornqvist type. Doesn't shy away from tough play, great release, decent skating, shows up in big moments.

 

[JT AM da real deal]

We will see come camp and preseason what we really got. But sounds promising. Unless some trades are made in off season cant see him sticking. There is just no room on roster. Hyman and Mik going nowhere. Clifford will get 4th line spot. So it comes down to quite a few guys for 3rd line LW. Barabanov, AJ, Kork?
On right side it is even worse.
Can he beat out AJ even?
Anywho good to have lots of positional depth on wing. Hopefully we can convert to defenders and centres where we are weaker.

He reminds me a lot of Marchand, aside from the Marchand side-show antics.

That's a tough one too, Marchand developed elite vision and defensive play (I think he always had the dangles) later in his career. Not sure Nick will be that quality of a playmaker. Otherwise, I like it....pure motor and drive. Love it in a player.

Judging from those videos, he's training hard just so he no longer has to live in Peterborough.

 

[IrishInOntario]

A future Zach Parise would be nice!

Right team wrong player .. My player comparison ... Alex DeBrincat (RW/LW)
