Strombone1 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Tyson Giuriato @TysonGiuriato Canucks trade Alexandre Mallet and a third round pick (2016) to the Islanders for Andrey Pedan.Information on Andrey Pedan from Hockey's Future. Hometown: Moscow, RussiaTeam: Vancouver CanucksBirthday: 1993-07-03Position: DShoots: LeftDrafted: 2011Height: 6-4Weight: 201 lbs. Talent Analysis: Slowed by an "upper body injury" in his first pro season, Pedan is a tall defenseman who skates well and relishes the physical side of the game. He possesses considerable technical and offensive skills but it is his combativeness that attracted the attention of scouts. Pedan can handle himself when challenged and is positionally sound in his own end. Future: Pedan is in his second pro season in 2014-15 — beginning the year with the ECHL's Stockton Thunder before being re-called by Islanders AHL affiliate Bridgeport in October 2014. With three high profile 20-year-olds making their pro debuts with the Sound Tigers this season, Pedan faces a challenge in trying to see regular ice time. To-date, he has mostly been a heavyweight enforcer with Bridgeport. Long-term it remains to be seen how much upside there is to Pedan's game.

Warhippy Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Need more info, certainly not sad to lose mallet. And that's a 2016 3rd right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph. Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Big (6'5), young (21) defenseman from the Isles. That's about all I can gather quickly; anybody have any more info on him? Decent enough numbers in the O and the A; but what kind of player is he? Strengths/weaknesses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Nice. 2011 3rd round pick. Russian with size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 That's some big size for sure. Here's to hoping we just pulled a Chara from them ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 We need to start developing D depth. Mallet didn't seem to have a place on the Comets. At least Benning is trying to turn past mistakes into something valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tambellini's Wrist Shot Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Looks like he's a big, rugged defenseman with some untapped offensive upside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herberts Vasiljevs Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 BIG FAN OF THIS MOVE!!!!! I remember wanting him in the 2nd round in 2011, and was so pissed when we traded down to get the almighty Honzik... Now he's where he belongs.

Warhippy Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Looks like he's happy to use that big body too. Heavy PIMs Can we confirm that he played with Tryamkin at the WJC for Russia? There's a thought. Picked up to help Tryamkin settle in after his contact is up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
