avelanch Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I wonder what number he'll year? (Have him in NHL 12 and trying to figure it out) I found out today he wears 10 on team Canada, so I guess he'll likely wear 10 because of that or 26 because of the # he was drafted whenever he makes the team. What do you all think? how abot you wait a couple years before he challenges for a roster spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phamda Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 how abot you wait a couple years before he challenges for a roster spot Like I said, it was for NHL 12 and I got curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Heyman Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I wonder what number he'll year? (Have him in NHL 12 and trying to figure it out) I found out today he wears 10 on team Canada, so I guess he'll likely wear 10 because of that or 26 because of the # he was drafted whenever he makes the team. What do you all think? 26 sounds likely. Pretty solid prospect top 6: 71 Jensen - 18 Schroeder - 9 Kassian 61 LaBate - 26 Gaunce - 15 Rodin And of course all extremely speculatory, we're allowed to fantasize Avelanch.

MoneypuckOverlord Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I think Gaunce is probably going to be a 3rd line player kinda like a manny Malhotra type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Gaunce will stick up for his teammates, but he doesn't exactly frighten anyone. He'll hit, but he won't downright lay anyone out. He can score, but he won't dazzle you with moves. Bread and butter player that won't get all uppity like Hodgson, but won't show a lot of upside either. Then again, we heard a lot of the same about Kesler. Definition of 'safe pick.' He's an NHLer for sure. 3rd or 2nd line. And since he's apparently good all over the ice, he'll likely have the upper hand on a lot of our other prospects. Cheers. TOML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grape Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I think Gaunce is probably going to be a 3rd line player kinda like a manny Malhotra type. Except after you watch his highlights, he has a lot of offensive upside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jigsaw99 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Its funny that he has just as much PPG as Jensen and has more points (Jensen with less games though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Karlsson Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Its funny that he has just as much PPG as Jensen and has more points (Jensen with less games though) I think Jensen is a little bit overrated..he will be a good NHLer but some people are hyping him up too much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoolander Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Fun Fact: Brendan Gaunce was listed as the best available Canadian forward at the draft. Another fun fact, he is comparable to Jordan Staal and has the leader-ship ability and skill-set to be a captain in the NHL one day :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
