This is my first time mass posting in the prospect threads in a while. I usually stay out of all of them beside the Demko and draft thread Edited December 5, 2015 by Gstank29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picking for position is stupid anyway. This is what the experts said when we picked Shink over Theodore fwiw, which isn't much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanTSN Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I like Boeser though. Good flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably our best prospect with both McCann and Virtanen graduating, How is his defensive game and does he PK at all? I know his plus-minus is insane right now, but that could be misleading due to deployment etc. Thanks for the gifs again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourdon could have turned out to be a fantastic D-man and worth relatively equal to what Kopitar's achieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Kopitar and Bourdon were great prospects. Just like Shinkaruk and Theodore is a great prospect. It was a wrong example to use. My bad guys.

But that's not his forte, he is a offense first kind of player. If I was projecting his defensive game I would say he'll probably play about the same level defensively as let's say, Vrbata in the NHL. Which is fine.

We don't need 12 2-way forwards (although I'm sure some people could actually make a case for it). We need different skill-sets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes still a freshman and only a few months removed from highschool so hes quite raw. If he makes it to his junior/senior year without being signed he will be getting pk shifts, no doubt Edited December 5, 2015 by Robongo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he makes it to his junior/senior year without being signed he will be getting pk shifts, no doubt I do feel he's better than Virtanen having watched both. I have no idea what the plan is next year. Maybe the canucks will sign him or maybe they'll keep him in the UND system. I wouldn't be against signing him at the end of the season if he keeps it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it depends on what Boeser wants too. Although, it's pretty common for prospects to drop their studies and take that risk at getting a spot with the big club sooner rather than later.
