By scorer you mean goal scorer?http://www.uscho.com/stats/player/mid,25403/kyle-connor/ This kid has that honor actually. Still don't know how #1 Boston did not pick him, #2 How he didn't get invited to the USA camp for WJC even, and #3 How he's scoring so fricken much?\ Still think Boeser is a great pick though!

Solid all rounder with plus shot Ha, I thought I was just repeating what the announcer said in that highlight someone posted of his goal. Wrong obviously, he said the NCHC. Kyle Connor not being on the WJC team is another reason not to put too much stock in that tournament.

Agreed,though, that to be effective in today's game foot work/ acceleration needs to be addressed by most young players. I know but it was a different league back then... You need to skate in today's NHL to be a star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true. The guys who could actually skate during that era, and by that I mean accelerate, maneuver and maintain balance, stood out like a sore thumb and were such an anomaly that it seemed they were cheating somehow. I don't know how many Paul Coffee rushes I witnessed where everybody else on the ice appeared to morph into Coleco table hockey figures. That kind of disparity in skating skill is rarely seen today.

DeNiro Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Boeser scores his team leading 16th goal with just over 5 minutes remaining to break a scoreless tie. #Clutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Make that goal number 2 for Boeser and his 17th of the season as he gets the only two goals of the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salmonberries Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) I sure hope he's back at UND next year. I hate rushing prospects and one and done seems to fail more often than it succeeds with college prospects. Two or three years at UND would be more sensible for all concerned.

The facilities and trainers offered to NCAA athletes is second only to the NHL. Scoring and winning and getting bigger, stronger and faster is what Brock needs. When he comes out of the NCAA he will be further along than any prospect to come out of Jr. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

College players get a LOT more time in the gym, with trainers and skills practice. That generally translates to more size, strength and skills. All while getting an education (which also has its advantages). AHL players adjust more to a pro schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
