Popular Post danaimo Posted June 24, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2017 I just watched the Highlights of Gadjovich last season for Owen Sound. Oh boy he must drive goaltenders crazy. It's a shame there aren't many hotheaded goalies playing for any of our most hated rivals. MIKE SMITH, become acquainted with Gadjovich's ass. Your going to see a lot of it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhukini Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Not everyone has to be the best assist man or make the players around him better. If he can get a little quicker and find a niche scoring goals around the net and creating space for the Skilled guys on our team like the Dahlens and Goldobins, anything else is found money. He is also extremely articulate and seems willing to put the work in, he'll be a very good locker room presence when he makes the jump. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Gadjovich is my favourite pick of the whole draft for us. I've been craving having a prospect in the system with his skill set. Big, gritty, and a player that can be a net front presence. Might not have the same snarl as some other power-forwards, but his willingness to pay the price is what is going to make him a fan favourite for years to come. Listening to his interviews, he is very well spoke, can imagine him being a leader for the team too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 It looks like he suffers the same problem as Ekblad. Man-Childism 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will have time to work on his offensive skill and round out his game. He is playing with good teammates which sets him on the path to becoming a complementary forward we need. The type of gritty forward that can play with skill and create space for them. But yeah physically he looks ready for pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your going to see a lot of it. A guy with a nose for the net, not the greatest skater, plays with an edge, scored a ton of goals, but played on a good team and had skilled linemates.... Not sure if it him just benefiting from his linemates or is he legit? Change his name to Tkachuk and it would read very similarly to questions about Tkachuk last year. OMG... This is JB's redemption draft. He is drafting guys to shut down posters on the CDC. No more we should have drafted Nylander, because he went out and took Pettersson. If you like Nylanders game, you kinda have like Petterssons game too. If you are a pro Nylander poster on Jakes thread, JB just handed you some shut up juice. For all those posters who wanted Tkachuk, well Gadjovich does sound a lot like him minus the smirk. I think I need a break from the board...

Hairy Kneel Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) Glad we had 2 second round picks!! Gadjovich reminds me of when I first looked at Tryamkin A guy that big? Can he play? Yeah I think he can.... a steal of a pick! Jake might just have some competition here. Edited June 25, 2017 by Hairy Kneel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danaimo Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 My main concern is that he is able to plant himself in front of goalies and feed off the scraps. It is one thing to do that in Junior. Defencemen in the NHL will not make quite so easy for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should up his confidence a ton and overall game in junior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thad Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 He looks like if you shoot the puck anywhere in his general area, he'll get a touch on it. Looks so casual doing it too. Like it's easy for him. Gotta be the best net front guy in the draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
