Rex425 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 What comparisons would you have to the Prospects? Dosen't mean how good, the style of play that our prospects play. List a few. Jake Virtanen-Jeff Carter shot, speed, and physicality. Bo Horvat-Ryan O'reilly 2-way, good enough offensively, and great top 6 center potential(already for O'reilly) Hunter Shinkaruk- Patrick Kane HE IS NOT PATRICK KANE but he has a similar skill set.

RogerEpic5 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Rick Nash is a better comparison for Jake Virtanen because Jeff Carter is a centre . Rick Nash has speed, amazing shot/goal scorer, and physical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMJB Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I'm talking purely style not skill. Jake Virtanen - Dustin Brown with better speed Bo Horvat - Ryan O'Reilly Hunter Shinkaruk - Zack Parise Frank Corrado - Kevin Bieksa Nicklas Jensen- Johan Franzen Dane Fox - Dave Bolland/Steve Ott Bredan Gaunce - Shawn Matthias Cole Cassels - Dave Bolland That's all ive got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerEpic5 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Jake Virtanen- Rick Nash Hunter Shinkaruk- Zack Parise/Patty Kane Jared McCann- Derek Roy back when Roy was a 60-80 point player. Bo Horvat- Ryan O Reily Brendan Gaunce- Patrice Bergeron Niklas Jensen- Dustin Brown Nikita Tryamkin- Zdeno Chara Mackenze Stewart- Brooks Orpik/Willie Mitchell Thacther Demko- Cory Schneider Dane Fox- Chris Kunitz Cole Cassels- Joe Pavelski(potential) Frankie Corrado- Kevin Bieksa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derp... Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Shinky => Skinner Virtanen => Van Riemsdyk McCann => Giroux Bo Horvat => Ryan O'Reilly Nik Jensen => Jacub Voracek Dane Fox => Alex Steen Brendan Gaunce => Brandon Dubinsky Cole Cassels => Dustin Brown Linden Vey => Cody Hodgson (probably better all round though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kruger Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Play style not player potential: Horvat - Ryan O'Reilly Shinkaruk - Jeff Skinner Virtanen - Dustin Brown (Hopefully minus the cheap shots and diving) Gaunce - Michal Handzus McCann - Brandon Sutter Jensen - Johan Franzen Corrado - Johnny Oduya Cassels - Dave Bolland Fox - Scottie Upshall Subban - Torey Krug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanBeef Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 From what I've seen from them Virtanen- Chris Kreider/pre concussion Booth Horvat- O'Reilly/Stepan Shinkaruk-- Kane/Giroux/Parise hybrid Gaunce- Pahlsson Corrado- Petry McCann (haven't watched him much)-Kesler Lain- Boyle/Steckel Archibald- Trent Hunter Jensen- Nash Friesen- Tropp Cassels- D. Moore Vey- Santorelli Kenins- Hansen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerEpic5 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Switch them around At first I actually put Horvat as Bergeron comparison. But really, when you take the skill set, I think Ryan O Reilly was the bettter comparison. Gaunce does play Bergeron style. He's a shutdown center with very great faceoffs. So yeah just my opinion :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langdon Algur Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I'm talking purely style not skill. Jake Virtanen - Dustin Brown with better speedBo Horvat - Ryan O'ReillyHunter Shinkaruk - Zack PariseFrank Corrado - Kevin BieksaNicklas Jensen- Johan FranzenDane Fox - Dave Bolland/Steve OttBredan Gaunce - Shawn Matthias Cole Cassels - Dave Bolland That's all ive gotFrom what I've seen of Corrado, he doesn't play as physical as Bieksa but is already more steady defensively. I think Chris Tanev or Dan Hamhuis might be a better comparison.Like the Fox/Bolland comparison though. If Fox makes in the NHL it will be as a pesky checker who can chip in and score now and then, another comparison could be Alex Burrows another undrafted player who made it into the NHL at first as a checker. Although Fox doesn't have Burrow's speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Virtanen - Iginla ( Will Fight, Pure Goal scores with great shots, Both PWF type of game, Both will do whatever it takes to win) Bo Horvat - OReilly ( Without as many points and as much speed) Shinkaruk - Parise Jensen - Moulson MacCann - Kesler Demko - Schnieder 2.0 Gaunce - Dustin Brown (But a center) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quaz Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Virtanen - Jarome Iginla/Rick Nash Horvat - Slower version of Antoine Vermette?Shinkaruk - Skinner McCann - Paul StastnyGaunce - Brooks LaichJensen - Bigger version of Mason Raymond Fox - David Bolland Corrado - Chris Tanev Cederholm - Dennis Seidenberg Subban - No clue Demko - Jonathan Quick?
