radio show with tyler wright, wings new director of amateur scouting and HockeyProspect.com scout, Kevin Thacker
cliffs from wright
- big shows to fill with nill leaving, not trying to fill those shoes.
- learn from what they've done and bring some own philosophy etc.
- not trying to re-invent the wheel, excited about challenge.
- mantha has to be more consistent.
- wings take kids slowly, it's mantha's decision to change that in how consistent he will be
- sees lot of similar qualities as in rick nash (wright was with jackets before last summer)
- likes what he sees from sheahan, esp. reg. his checking and defensive abilities.
- feels his hockey sense and skills are underrated, sees some more offense in there.
from tucker
- feels like jurco is much more than one trick pony, reminds him of pf more than sniper at times
- game breaking ability
- needs to round out game a bit more, continue to pull it together, stronger away from the puck, be more effective in def. zone around the wall and get pucks into the neutral zone.
- learn little more in griffs about these things, thinks calder cup run and vets in that team helped him to develop, what he needs to do
- feels he has potential to play in top within a year or two.
- goal scorer but starting to use his team mates a lot better.
- could get spot next year from wings if he keeps this up.
- feels sproul has almost limitless potential
- thinks he's probably the best off. dman prospect in all of hockey
- one of the hardest and most accurate shots that he has seen live
- his team system for pp in juniors was ''give sproul the puck and get out of the way''
- great vision and playmaker, great skater
- jumps into rushes like 4th forward has seen him lead rushes at times, lol.
- thinks he improved in d zone last year
- needs to be coached defensively, must be better position wise
- doesn't think he has much physicality in him and doesn't have to
- can see him QB'ing wings pp in near future
- probably needs this and next year ahl
- chases the puck a little too much
- no need to rush him, sky's the limit
- likes ouellet's compete level
- strength is poise and confidence at both ends of the ice
- wings trust him big role in ahl, think he's up to it and that makes him better
- good leader
- needs to get stronger, and play away from the puck a bit
- host feels it could take couple of years in ahl
- could play in nhl now if he was told 'just play offense don't worry about defense' but feels wings have different role for him
- feels mrazek was great steal
- likes his athleticism, never give up on play-attitude, vision
- feels he is nhl-ready in back up role but it's better to play him more in ahl
- small knock is that goes down a bit early
- seems to improve every game
- no reason to rush him, could play another season down
that's pretty much it.
