What's the scoop on Daniel Johnston?

Seems he's our only camp invite thus far. 20 year old defenseman (21 in Oct) who's finished his last year of junior with some respectable stats.

Improvements year after year bode well. Potential signee to play in the AHL at the very least.

Was he at the rookie camp? I can't say I recall ever hearing about him before.

on the smallish side, but NVM. He drops the gloves too. Would love some more insight, because those are decent numbers

6'2 210 lbs on the smallish side?

My mistake, another site had him listed as 6 foot, must be outdated

Seems like he recently had a growth spurt. NHL.com still has him at 6'0" 210lbs (still decent size for an offensive/two-way d-man). Though they don't even have his stats, so likely they're out of date.

Put up respectable numbers on what looks to be a terrible team. +/- stat may be deceiving at 4, but he is actually leading the defense in the stat and is 3rd on the team.

2nd highest scoring d-man on Hurricanes, while playing 27 fewer games, and producing only one point less. Could be a diamond in the rough?

What does that make Subban then? Midget?

I heard he signed with the Devil

Win.

That's a cool graph.

I see the name Carter Sandlak there. Google tells me that he is Jim Sandlak's son! What is the offspring of a house? Would he be "Shed" Sandlak?

I had thought he was 6 foot, which is on the small side for a defender. I have been corrected and 6'2" is an average size. Subban is tiny, which is why he probably won't ever be an NHL player

Holy, I so hope he makes the bigs just to hear that nickname in action.

Did this post go in the wrong thread? I want to know what graph you're talking about! Love the Shed joke. Speaking of Canuck offspring, I noticed Cal Babych is Hitmen property, hope to see him make the team this year.

I agree.

Interesting pick-up. A real non-factor in his draft season, but improving to a shade off .55ppg and then over .75 ppg in his overage season is at least sort of promising.

Looks like a guy who could be a decent AHL player with an outside shot at carving out a role as a depth defenseman in the NHL at some point.
