Fred65 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Kenin's reminds me a little of a young Stan Smyl, Same size and build and finishes each and every check. There's a lot of timing being able to hit like Smyl and Kenins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I was curious what Fred thinks of Kenins play!... Tee hee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Karlsson Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Was almost funny the way they ganged on Chara. Also liked Kenins' cheeky take-down of Lucic at 8:54. It was pretty funny, every time Chara turned around he was getting nailed by a youngin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Let's be honest a few of us knew this guy was pretty darn good, but man he's just been unreal!!!!! Another goal for Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 It's been a long time since I've seen somebody work as hard on the ice as Kenins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Well this is weird... Eliteprospects has him listed at 6'0 200 pounds. Hockeydp has him listed at 6'4 205 pounds. But I think I'll have to go with Elitleprospects because when you watch Kenins play, he looks like a 6'0, 5'11. Anybody noticed that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucklehead44 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Check out this quote from 2013 - Crow was right! Also, pretty awesome he made the recommendation. *** On a related note, the Canucks’ signing of 22-year-old Latvian forward Ronalds Kenins didn’t exactly take the hockey world by storm, but there is an interesting backstory there. Last season, Kenins played for former Canucks head coach Marc Crawford with Zurich in the Swiss elite league. He wasn’t exactly a scoring machine — 3-14-17 in 45 games — but he impressed Crawford with his mature, two-way game. As it happens, Crawford’s brother Eric is the Canucks’ director of professional scouting. Older brother recommended Kenins to younger brother. Kenins signed with the Canucks. And now Marc Crawford says he’ll be playing in the NHL in two years. “He’ll make it,” said the Crow. “I’m convinced of it.” Crawford compared Kenins to Leo Komarov, the Estonian forward who played with the Leafs last season. Kenins is expected to play in Zurich this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horvat Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 It's not about how hard you shoot, it's about how fast you can get it off and where you put it! Crazy Latvian bastard caaazy laaatvian baastard over there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the offensive side of the puck, love the way he shoots from wherever and how he goes to the net. This Canucks team is so fixated on puck possession and making the "right" play that it doesn't shoot often enough...great to see that a kid is showing the way with blasting every chance he gets.

sinphase Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Fingers crossed that this guy turns into a top 6 forward. This team needs to hit the jackpot with more undrafted players. But even on the bottom 6 Kenins has been amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
