Trelane42 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 'bout time cuz 0-15-15 was just too... weird. I read somewhere that he is "Tanev with a slapshot." Maybe somebody who watches Sudbury can confirm that the guy actually has a slapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe somebody who watches Sudbury can confirm that the guy actually has a slapper. He went to a Reebok/CCM testing camp during the summer where he used the new RBZ stick and recorded a 100.0 MPH slapshot. I'm amazed that he doesn't use the stick in games.

bd71 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 If Corrado keeps this level of play up any chance he can make the WJC as one of Canada's shutdown defensemen? No. He's in no way a shutdown defenceman. Way too much talent out there for him to make that team. I'd say Jordan Subban gets a look before Corrado. He was good in today's loss to Mississauga. Goal was nice and he was really pumped to finally get one. Top shelf knuckler. I didn't notice him too much when the Wolves weren't on the PP as I follow the Steelheads but he is a really good PP QB.

sirwilliam Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Seems more of a mobile, smart and positional D than a shut-down type. Probably more comparable to Hamhuis or Tanev than Willie Mitchell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deirmoc Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Corrado just named OHL player of the week with 7 points in 3gp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Lets see, to make the world junior team, he would have to beat out: Hamilton, Dumba, Murray, Rielly, Ceci, Sproul, Finn, Murphy, Subban, and Oulette to name a few. Unfortunately, it's not likely, because he's older, was drafted lower, and he's just not one of the popular names that usually end up on team Canada. Plus there's just a ton of better defenseman. But being on team Canada isn't everything. He's obviously still a great defenseman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get real canuck fans Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 " Toronto, ON – The Ontario Hockey League today announced that Vancouver Canucks prospect Frank Corrado of the Sudbury Wolves is the OHL Player of the Week for the week ending October 28 after scoring one goal and six assists for seven points in three games with a plus-minus rating of plus-6. Corrado becomes the first defenceman to claim the award this season in a week highlighted by a career-best five assist performance on Friday night as first star of a 7-2 win over the Niagara IceDogs. On Saturday the Wolves captain recorded one assist despite a 3-1 loss to the Owen Sound Attack, then scored his first goal of the season on Sunday in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Mississauga Steelheads. Corrado, a 19-year-old from Woodbridge, ON, is playing in his fourth OHL season with the Wolves. Selected in the fifth round of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft by the Vancouver Canucks, Corrado has 16 points in 16 games so far this season and will compete for Team OHL at the 2012 SUBWAY Super Series Monday November 12 in Sarnia, ON. Also considered for the award this week was Montreal Canadiens prospect Alex Galchenyuk of the Sarnia Sting who scored three goals and three assists for six points in three games. Minnesota Wild prospect Tyler Graovac of the Ottawa 67’s played two games including a five-point performance with a hat-trick and two assists. In goal, Peterborough Petes rookie Michael Giugovaz made 80 saves in two games with a goals-against-average of 1.44 and save percentage of .964."
