Spencer Knight Scouting Report: 2019 NHL Draft #21

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Does Dale know 2 goalies cant be in net at once?

 

[drktmplr12]

Tell me what to feel, I'm numb

 

[Ghoste]

Does he have good stickhandling? Good at shootouts?

-ghoste

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

WELP

I guess if the Dmen are gone get the other thing that can stop pucks

 

[I am not exposed]

Guess that means Bob is going elsewhere

 

[5 Hole]

We picked up a good tendy prospect. I don’t see a problem. We’ll fill holes in FA.

 

[violaswallet]

Could be actually. Maybe we're shooting for Varlamov or someone for a few years? Would suck given our window, but...

 

[Thewselius]

Looks fine to me. Monty has some fire under him via competition.

 

[FrolikFan67]

They couldn’t have traded back and still got him?

 

[HockeyRulez]

We just picked the best goalie prospect in years, after all the top d-man were taken, to solidify a position that's probably the most important spot on the depth chart, and which probably signals to Lu that its time to move on... This was an awesome pick!

I don’t know about that I think he was gone well before 20 regardless.

This doesn’t change anything regarding our current goaltending...we still need a starter and all this does is give us another option 2-4 years from now along with Monty.

You do realise he won't be playing for quite a few years right. Not too sure what Luongo has to do with this.

Unclear. My guess is that teams did not want to offer anything worthwhile to move up. A third or fourth round pick is not worth the risk if they had Knight ranked highly

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Handwriting is unacceptable, demanding a redo

 

[FrolikFan67]

Sign bob, play 3-4 years at Boston college, 1-2 years in the Ahl, backup 1-2 seasons.

 

[Mase]

Best of luck to the kid. Welcome to the Cats, make us proud.

 

[Mogo]

Love the pick

People are acting like Knight will be competing for a spot with us this year. He's 3-5 years from that

Urgh. Queen Henrik as his favourite player. Not liking this pick even more now!

 

[Mase]

Can't imagine what the team will look like then.

 

[I am not exposed]

He likes to fish and golf! Should be happy with Florida choosing him haha

 

[Panteras]

We were not going to pick the best available forward or defenseman this draft. So if the best available G falls to us , and from all accounts the best goalie prospect in a while. Then I’m fine with it.

 

[HockeyRulez]

I'm not saying he will step in for Lu, but with Bob(hopefully), Monty, Knight and Bednard thats pretty good for depth. No room for Lu nor Reimer for that matter..

Lol when I first scrolled through and saw this I thought it was gonna be like a cute “look at what he wrote when he was in 4th grade” kind of thing
