Prospect Info: Sharks Prospect Info Discussion Thread XVI

[Desert Eagle]

I’m obviously biased but wasn’t he named the best dman in a recent tournament for Russia? I can’t help but feel as though he’d easily be one of the top 6 defencemen they could ice in the WJC

I watched that tournament and he was definitely one of the best players on that team, that’s why I thought injury is only reason he is not in roster on WJC.

Bordeleau looking good, nice to see.

Though a shame he has to be setting up a Vegas first round pick.....

It will just make him unable to produce without Bordeleau at the NHL level and we get him for free when Vegas waives him where he rekindles his chemistry with Bordeleau to become an all star

Knyazev (VHL) - 1 assist, 3 SOG, “+1”, 18:11, 1st pair.

Now I’m really curious as to why Knyazev isn’t on the WJC roster…

That defender.... What was he thinking?

Sick goal though.

Make Sharks fans think they have a top prospect?

 

[themelkman]

Could he be ready next year? Hes playing better than the 3 guys on his team who are contending for first overall, and first overall is almost always in the league the next year

I think it's possible if this is just the beginning of major progression. He's generating shots at a pretty incredible rate as a true freshman. That's a pretty good sign to start. You could also make an argument for him being the best player on the team which is also a pretty good sign when you consider who his teammates are and how stacked the team is overall. Not to mention, he's playing in all situations so he may be a little more well rounded as a player overall. If he can keep his status as the top player on the team, it'll be hard not to sign him to a contract.

He went full Brent Burns.

You never go full Brent Burns.

Alternate angle is great.

 

[PacificOceanPotion]

He got the top play of the night on sports center...Siiick goal. From what I've seen and heard this kids a steal.

He is reportedly outplaying guys who are in the discussion for #1 overall next year, that he is less than 12 months older than...

If the draft cutoff were different he could have gone much earlier...

Silver lining if the Sharks do have another rough season, they have front row seats for Owen Power.

With Bordeleau showing something already and excitement over some of the other 2020s i'm 100% for this. If Sharks tank this season and end up with Power things could start to really change quick.

I’d almost prefer Raty. I’d be okay with Power especially since I just found out he’s a leftie but Raty looks to be pretty good.

 

[Dr Quincy]

Im a TPS fan.. no pts for Ibragimov today but a sweet winning shootout goal.

I like Raty, but doubt SJ takes a fin. Raty may not be top 10, so maybe if Sharks bubble.

Power, Hughes and Kent Johnson all look great if sharks mirror last season. Would be hard to pass on a Hughes brother, besides Luke is a much cooler name than Quinn or Jack so we'd have that. lols

I'm really liking this kid. Really look forward to seeing his development.

 

[PacificOceanPotion]

It's refreshing to see us hit on some Russian prospects. I can think of at least 4 who should play a big role in this organizations resurgence... Hopefully.
