Then sign with the Canucks, and try o make the big club next fall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Kneel Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 There's no guarantee he would get much ice time with the Comets this year. Cull is pretty strict with the young guys. But a pro cheque though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingleThorn Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Have not seen too much of Lockwood this season. Hi-lite stuff only. The question at the start his season was, could he cut back on his kamikaze defensive style and stay healthy ? He's done well, health wise. Has he, in fact, toned things down in that area ? Has it affected his overall game or is he still flying around hitting everything in sight ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cull is pretty strict with the young guys. But a pro cheque though. You want to offer him something and his play doesn't warrant burning a year off his ELC. I imagine he'll get an ELC and then be sent to Utica, but wont play unless injuries decimate the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo Park Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 What kind of player do you think that Lockwood projects to in the NHL if/when he gets there? Does anyone have a comparable in mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe a faster more talented Burrows or a slightly less fiesty but more talented Rousell...to use Canuck players as comparison's...I am sure there are better ones to be made.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucklehead44 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Comparable? Probably a guy like Tyler Motte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is his third season of college hockey, comparing his numbers to Motte's third season. Motte had 56 points in 38 games, Lockwood isn't even getting a ppg right now. Maybe he has a chance to be a decent AHLer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than QH and Josh Norris, who's missed basically half the season, there aren't very many high pedigree guys on Michigan this year. As for the comparison part, I see a lot of the good qualities Matt Cooke had in his early days as a Canuck. The fiesty attitude, with good two way play.

Motte was on a team with Kyle Connor who scored 31 goals as an NHL rookie and had probably the best NCAA rookie year in recent history. JT Compher is also a good NHL second line player now. Lockwood has nobody to play with. Zach Hyman had only 17 points in 35 games in his 3rd college season. Lockwood will get a contract but he probably isn't a top 6 player. 20-30 point energy guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got tonnes of speed to burn, but just needs to stay healthy. I project him to be more of a 3rd/4th liner and maybe Hansen as a comparable. His offense is a bonus, but I think he will be a very effective PKer and checker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His chemistry with Hughes can't be overlooked either...I think he will be a solid middle 6 guy with upside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grape Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Yeah Lockwood is a fiesty mofo and he plays with emotion. He was ejected for kicking a stick in OT last game in frustration after being assessed a bogus penalty that negated a Michigan PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
