Erik Karlsson Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I think he's going to be one of our top prospects by the end of the season. Once he matures and puts on some size, look out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maniwaki Canuck Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Great compete, vision and skill from this kid. Looked better than Ehlers out there, at a year younger and with even less size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuckin Kingsly Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Absolutely loving what I'm hearing abut this kid. Keep it up Zhuk!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyoung Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 The difference already in his game from prospect camp earlier in summer until now is impressive, he is still tiny but he's getting accustom to the NA nicely. He was so confused and lost during drills because of his language barrier but during game, his instincts seem to come out. This first year in the Q is going to be crucial, he needs to work hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 So impressed with this kid, best Canuck at Young Stars by a mile for me. Carrying his line, driving play, tenacious forecheck, excellent 2 way game. He just needs to eat a lot of spinach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derp... Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Benning Believes Zhukenov will be an important player for them in the future already. Not bad for a 4th rounder, that some scouts were criticizing early. I think he has a 90% chance of scoring 20 Goals and 45 Assists in the Q this year. 5% chance of 15 Goals and 35 Assists 5% chance of 25 Goals and 55 Assists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dank.sinatra Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Definitely gonna be my most closely followed player in Junior this year. Wonder if he's asked any NA girls to "Zhuke him off" yet. Edited September 17, 2015 by ashbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maniwaki Canuck Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Another strong game last night. Him and Shinkaruk seem to bring out the best in each other. This tournament is going to do a lot for his confidence and set up a good year in junior for him. Bring on the HGH! (just kidding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herberts Vasiljevs Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Definitely gonna be my most closely followed player in Junior this year. Wonder if he's asked and NA girls to "Zhuke him off" yet. Thanks for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woah, let him learn some English first. He has a lot of adjusting to do. I'm expecting a good 50-70pts. I see him finishing strong as he gets more comfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfstonker Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 The kid has balls for such a slight frame. He seems to be lion hearted the way he went tearing into players who were a foot taller than him and then bounced back off them. He will be a real competitor 2-3 down the line and I can't wait.

DeNiro Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Gotta love the effort level from him. Like most prospects he just needs to get stronger. He definitely needs to work on his shot though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
