Der Jaeger
Generational EBUG
You've been pumping him so long and I usually agree with you're ideas (aside from overpaying for Fabbro lol) I'm genuinely hoping this kid pans out just to see all your work pay off. I have no dog in the fight I am just amused at how persistent you have been. I'm curious to see if you're right or not...
I’ve had prospects like this before. I was talking up Olofsson before it was a thing.
Fabbro hasn't received high marks in the team prospects assessments I've seen lately. I don't think he's any better then the guys we have in our system (Guhle, Pilut, Borgen, Samuelsson...).
Fabbro is in the 3/4 D conversation as far as upside. I think that about where Guhle is. For the other three, they’d need to develop well to get to that point.
Fabbro reasoning: RHD who skates 4 ways well, has high hockey IQ, plays in a men’s league in terms of physicality, and was used as a shutdown defender in the WJC even though he was hurt. He’s not McAvoy. But I can see him ending up as a Edler type defender. Does all the little stuff which doesn’t get noticed. But solid all around.
