Prospect Info: Prospect Discussion 2020-21

We should send every prospect to the SHL every year lol

Honestly, it would probably be better for their development. Outside of Mantha and Bertuzzi, when was the last time that a prospect developed in Grand Rapids was a true impact player? Hudler and Filpulla in 2006?

Nyquist, Tatar, Howard

Nyquist, Tatar, Howard

Fair enough! That's still a low percentage of our picks going there and becoming successful. I keep on saying it, but I wish we could develop a farm system like Tampa Bay did under Yzerman.

Seider & Zadina both made strides in GR, along with the aforementioned.

I think our farm system hasn't been any worse or better than Tampa's one versus the amount of draft picks.

Also Grand Rapids main reason is not to develop impact players, because impact players come almost always straight to NHL from juniors or from European Leagues. Just like Larkin did, visited GR as amateur try-out and it was obvious instantly he was too good on that level. Been in NHL since. Raymond will be the same etc.

Grand Rapids main season is to develop cheap depth talent. Guys who'll take more years to develop.

If people want to watch... Sam Stange will make his collegiate debut for Wisconsin tonight at 7 on NBCSN

 

[lhsgolf19]

2nd line RW for Sam... Not Bad! Playing with Holloway too

 

[lhsgolf19]

Saw some flashes from Stange... Nearly scored on a slick move in front of the net with about 5 min left (hit the post)... Wisconsin won 2-0

[lhsgolf19]

[lhsgolf19]

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

good start of the day for our prospects

 

[Pavels Dog]

Berggren is just so skilled, however he also is going to need some learning in terms of not always choosing the most difficult options. Sometimes make some really risky plays that aren't completely necessary.

Mo's 2nd Goal of the Season

 

[lhsgolf19]

Ryan O'Reilly getting his Collegiate career started... 4th Line RW

 

[lhsgolf19]

Playing O'Reilly is this team... So talented

UM if they put it together is going to be fantastic

 

[Henkka]

[Jon Cusack]

Is Tuomisto also startin to play with Denver ?

I looked today and their first game is Dec 2

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Johnson-Beniers-Becker is a crazy 4th line. Top 5 pick, probable top 15 pick, and a huge 23 year old who's about to have a career year.

And there you have it, first college points for Kent Johnson and Owen Power. Starting early.
