Prospect Info: Noah Juulsen Part III

[26Mats]

Armia

good example at forward - although he's hot now. It remains to be seen what he can do over a full season.

what about a dman?

On top of my head Gudbranson and Oleksiak

I think he's solid but yeah. I was surprised at how many people were raving about him. I thought he was solid. I think Fleury has more upside. I'm not as meh on him as you but losing a year will be tough. If he can get faster I think he can possibly be a #4. He has decent puck skills and thought he made good decisions with the puck.

Not sure, I really never saw much of anything from him.

What’s wrong with a bottom pairing defenceman in the nhl? Not everyone who gets drafted turns into an all star. Even first round picks can be career 3rd or 4th liners. Doesn’t mean their busts.

You don't want your first round picks to end up as bottom players. 1st or 31st, you're looking to get more out of those guys. If not, hopefully you move them out when they have higher value. It's quite easy to find bottom depth around the league.

NHL players = Products.

Up until last year he wasn’t ....

Won't play next Laval's game..... He got the flu now, they say.......

 

[Runner77]

Confirmed, Juulsen playing tonight in Hartford.

NHL players = Products.

PS: Unfortunately...

the fact that they MAKE the nhl and become regulars is impressive on its own. I don’t think anyone drafting even in the first round thinks the guys are going to be top line players. Not every time. Sure there’s exceptions but there’s a ton of guys who don’t make it or carve out long careers as bottom guys.

Confirmed, Juulsen playing tonight in Hartford.

We sure could use him.

 

[HockeyDBspecialist]

Healthy again, Rocket's Noah Juulsen happy to be playing, and contributing, again

 

[domiwroze]

Was he good in his 2 games so far ?

not so much in game 1, better in game 2.

As I posted elsewhere, I heard a live interview with Joel Bouchard this morning, where he was asked for a Juulsen update.

Bouchard said Juulsen played OK vs Hartford.

However, he had a real good game vs. Providence, esp. also that it was a back to back game.

He was very consistent both with and without the puck vs. Providence. Says it will take some time given that he hasn’t played for almost one year.

 

[Saundies]

I hope Juulsen recovers and has a nice career. He didn't look out of place at all last year, and who knows what we would be saying about him if he hadn't gone down. Maybe our bottom 6 wouldn't be such a rotating tire fire.

Beaulieu has raw skill and produced in Saint John but on a good team. When I watched him in the Q (pre-draft), I was not blown away. Same as Baron this year with the Mooseheads. I'm laughing at how some think its a deep draft and Baron is ranked 10 (even on Bob's list). We won't know if this is a deep draft until we get to see what these 17 and 18 year olds do this season. Lets look at it come March ish.

When did I know Beaulieu was meh for sure... When I watched him at the WJC and noticed the hesitation in his game and bad puck management. I though he was a decent prospect and would be a good piece for us but a top 4D stud? It was a lot of hope

Sergachev is like Beaulieu in terms of hockey IQ but scores more and has more offensive tools IMO. Lightning are grooming him slowly and they are smart

If back to 100% health, what is your projection for Juulsen?

 

[Tyson]

Juulsen played a decent game against Hartford, you can see that he is a cut above but is still working on getting in game shape. His timing is coming back. I hope his eye injury is behind him for good

Andrew Zadernowski on tsn690 this morning saying he's been playing really well in Laval and will be ready for a call up soon.

Would be great if he could play the left side next to Fleury.

Very hard for a RHD to play on the left side. While LHD adapt very well playing on the right side.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

He would probably still be better than Reilly/Kulak at LD, so its worth a try

seems right statistically, but what is the causal factor behind the statistics?

Are there less RHD playing LD and more LHD playing RD simply because there are less RHD overall? Or is there some other reason?

That's the reason. Most LHD got to play RD at some point in their life while RHD usually stay at RD due to LHD being more frequent.

Did they say they would be playing Juulsen on the left side if called up or if Juulsen has been practicing on the left side for Laval? Otherwise, we've got a problem. A nice one. Something is going to have to give on the right side.

Plus, Juulsen will need to be protected in the expansion draft. If he's ready to move up, then they have to play him -- and at least they're going to see for themselves if he's the Juulsen of old. I don't know how that will jive with Fleury, who has been taking huge strides of his own.
