A lot of these D prospects are not very well known so I’m trying to understand more about them.
Powell - Who stood out the most in this camp from the D? Sounds like Powell?
Schmidt - how is his skating? What’s his upside in nhl?
Perbix - how did he look?
Forwards:
Usau - I liked him in the clips. But reading mixed reviews. Thoughts on him?
Mismash - how is his skating? Seems a bit slow to me but not sure.
Huuhtanen - how did he look?
Thanks!
Powell- He defintely looked good in the 3on3 tournament. shorter dman but very good at moving the puck
Schmidt- Needs to work on his skating a bit more but does skate well for his size. could see him as a 4/5 dman maybe higher being a RHD
Perbix- Has looked fantastic and maybe be a sneaky pick to make opening night roster out of camp
Usau- a bit underwhelming from what ive seen but could also just be the transitioning to NA ice. I'd give him a year or so to get used to it
Mismash- not the fastest but not the slowest. very strong physical guy that isnt scared to drive the net. see him as a Paul type player perhaps?
Huuhtanen- This kid has a tremendous shot and has some serious top 6 potential if he can put it all together. Very physical and playing in Liiga for 2 years will do wonders for the kid as long as he doesnt pull a Lipanov and fail to do anything
