W Marko Dano (2013, 27th overall, Columbus)

[alko]

What is happening with him? Disappointing season so far, I was expecting more from him..?

Not only you. Everyone. But he plays in KHL, what is to strong defense oriented league. He is still young and such cold streak could help him too.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Hopefully he will turn it around. Doesn't he play 4th line for Slovan?

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Signed a PTO with our AHL team Springfield last night and will sign ELC soon. Appears his KHL career is over and he's on his way to NA

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I hear he has been pretty impressive so far at rookie camp... whos a good NHL comparison???

TSN compared him to Mikael Backlund at the 2013 draft

I liken him to TJ Oshie. Maybe Girgensons, but not sure since he doesn't have a huge body of work yet.

 

[TheOllieC]

Oshie seems like a pretty good comparison.

Dano has had himself a good tournament.

Marko Dano - Columbus Blue Jackets

First round pick, 27th overall, in 2013 By the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Was a huge contribution to the Sloakian U20 teams in the past. Debuted in the KHL as an 18 year old, didn't necesarily light it up but it gave him a great opportunity.

When he was picked, I was shocked. Mostly because he wasn't supposed to go that high at all, especially first round.

Since being given an opportunity in the CBJ lineup, he has taken the opportunity and ran with it. Exceeding beyond expectations and is becoming more of a fan favorite after each game that passes. He has great potential and he's an awesome character. Extremely driven to succeed.

Keep on keeping on, Marko!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

One of the best moves of the year tonite.

 

[TheOllieC]

He has been exceptional ever since getting recalled from Springfield. Very impressed and surprised with his shot. Hartnell-Wennberg-Dano line has been CBJ's best recently.

 

[H3ckt1k]

That was beautiful.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

One of the best moves of the year tonite.

that was sick

 

[Whitesnake]

And I'm sure that I keep reading on this board, when people loves to diss moves made by prospects in juniors, that you would NEVER see junior moves like that in the NHL. And then.....we see them. Plenty of them. Talent is talent and it translate in the NHL when you have plenty of it.

 

[TheOllieC]

This guy is playing so well. Continuing to surprise me. Seven points in the last five games. 2G 1A tonight.

 

[Theo Von]

One of the most entertaining players to watch on and off the ice. The kid is special, man. Oh and his celly's are something else haha.

 

[CoachWithNoTeam]

This guy is playing so well. Continuing to surprise me. Seven points in the last five games. 2G 1A tonight.

He is playing out of his mind right now. Had a pretty frustrating game against Edmonton last night, where he took a couple big hits and had a couple non-call penalties against him, and had some close misses... He is a big reason why Hartnell was the league's #1 star last week.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

He was really impressive in Edmonton. He's got the moves, that really moves em'.

 

[PG Canuck]

I just wonder if he'll be able to keep this up, or if he'll slow down and go cold for awhile. The talent is there, that's for sure.

live love Dano

and to think I had him pegged as the worst prospect out of the group of Wennberg/Rychel/Bjorkstrand/Milano/Dano

[Bryanbryoil]

Solid young player, I was impressed by him in his last game against Edmonton.

 

[ulvvf]

Higher PPG in NHL than in AHL? You see that sometimes espically from younger guys.
