BureisBest Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 More offensive instinct and talent on one hip than most of our NHL lineup. Can't wait to see Shink back to full health for training camp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absent Canuck Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 The guy is going to be great. I hope he does well in Utica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 You can definitely see why he took the season off. Looks a step slow. I hope he recovers fully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanucklehead10 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Funny, I'm more excited for him than I am for Horvat. Hopefully the injury hasn't given him a major setback; I always loved watching him tear it up in junior with such dynamic speed and a great shot. Translating it to the NHL level is yet to be seen, but I have a good feeling about this kid. Can't wait for him to go back to training camp!

Kanucklehead10 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 No because we aren't getting ehlers ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rypien37 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I still can't believe we got him at 24th. I remember scouts and TSN having him in their top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawkdrummer Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 His hip issues are the possible reason for him dropping down in his draft, lucky for us. Believe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I still can't believe we got him at 24th. I remember scouts and TSN having him in their top 10. Small size was the knock on him. I believe he's 5'10, which by any means, is not "small". Some players play bigger than their size and some people don't even use their size. Size is overrated. I hope Schroeder AND Shinkaruk have good years in their respective clubs. They both have skill but just needs to be translated into the NHL.

MJDDawg Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 That was a good vid. He has all the looks of Patrick Kane that's for sure. As for size, depending on the source, he's around 5'11" and 180 lbs, which is about where Kane is at. His speed and shiftiness should help him avoid some tough spots. What does concern me a little bit is that in his last five seasons of hockey, he's missed two full seasons due to injury. Hopefully it's not a harbinger of things to come. The kid has the skill and cockiness our team needs and I can't wait to see him at training camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roflcawptur Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I still can't believe we got him at 24th. I remember scouts and TSN having him in their top 10. I remember him being ranked #6 going into the draft. I bet his hip dropped him down and since he got that fixed, what a steal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totes McGoats Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I wonder how it will all play out this year, Shinkaruk better get given the 9 games, so that way he is 20 and we can send him to AHL instead of wasting him in the CHL for another year.

Not possible as he didn't hurt his hip until early October of this past season. He dropped because of concerns about his size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Bang Boogie Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Hopefully the hip surgery won't have any negative impact on his speed. He looked a little slow on some of those highlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 20 and AHL eligible... we won't be sending him back to Juniors. The 9 game rule only applies to players who aren't AHL-eligible, so we'll be using the first year of his entry-level contract this year, regardless of whether he plays in the AHL or NHL.
