Probably could use a prospects thread @Summer Rose

Would there be any way to transfer the AZ one over here? There's a lot of content in it

Great idea

 

[Summer Rose]

I’ll see what I can do.

 

[Grimes]

Can we pin this one too?

I'm curious if the new accomodating ownership will change BA's stance on signing Langlois? CM indicated a while back the braintrust were open to signing him to an AHL contract. Maybe the purse strings are a little more loose now with RS .

Don’t think it was a $$$ issue. More of a contract limit issue I’d guess

Where would Langlois fit on the U24 LD depth chart? 6th? The 5 ahead of him are NHLers or are on an NHL trajectory.

Moser
Simashev
Kolyachonok
Szuber
Duda
Langlois

He might be the best offensive d of tge lot. Clearly thats not the part of his game BA and tge boys are luke warm with.

While @rt might be right about contract slots I still see depth as a organizational weakness atm.

Is Langois a 2nd or 3rd pairing D in the A and for how long? And how many D are we planning to draft over the course of the next 3 drafts to fill out the 12-15 slots that we need? Langois is depth yes. But can you get depth elsewhere if you need it.

Should probably slot Kipkie above Langlois.

Should probably slot Kipkie above Langlois.

i agree with this. i think we sign Kipkie this summer.

Yeah BA has it right - offer JL an AHL, if he takes it you can plug him into the vaunted development machine the team has put together. If he declines, move on with other plans.

Kipkie is 2 years younger than Langlois though so he's further out on the timeline.

Meet 'Robocop' Maveric Lamoureux, one of NHL Utah's top prospects

Lamoureux's story is one of modern training — turning an atypical athlete into a first-round pick and, hopefully, a unicorn NHLer.

Cliff's Notes?

Cliff's Notes?

Good kid, lights up a room, doing everything necessary to become a solid, pro.

It is a long read. Very in depth on him managing injuries, development, training and nutrition. It is actually amongst the best, most informative, articles I have read on a prospect and worth the time, if you can find it.
