[Trade] VAN Alexandre Mallet + Pick :: NYI Andrey Pedan


Strombone1

Recommended Posts

Information on Andrey Pedan from Hockey's Future.

Hometown: Moscow, Russia

Team: Vancouver Canucks

Birthday: 1993-07-03

Position: D

Shoots: Left

Drafted: 2011

Height: 6-4

Weight: 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.

Sounds like we're getting ready to handle Los Angeles and Anaheim forwards!

Now that's what I like to hear.

Fantastic pick-up!

Mallet was extraneous and Pedan is a guy I've coveted for awhile. He's a big, nasty piece of business on the backend. Exactly what we need and definitely worth a 3rd in 2016, as Mallet was a throw-in…. cleaning up a contract space.

If his transition helps Tryamkin feel comfortable too then it's a bonus. This kid will destroy people in front of the net and in the corners. We were lacking this type of prospect as an available call-up. He's near NHL ready now.

Benning certainly knows what he's doing. Damn.

Pedan? Really? We gave up a 3rd rounder for this guy? Damn.

I wonder if the 3rd is a rumor or if it's true... as the team 1040 just reported it as a player for player trade.

A developed third rounder is worth more than a 3rd round pick.

3rd round picks usually turn into career AHLers.

At least this guy looks like he has potential.

I was also under the impression that it was a straight player for player trade as per TSN1040. Regardless of that, Mallet was useless and people seem to be pretty high on this kid, so I'll reserve judgement until I can do a little digging of my own. Did anybody watch him in junior/AHL? Are those junior numbers somewhat translatable to the grown up leagues.
