kenhodgejr Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I remember at the begging of the year when we were all looking at the mock draft we knew we needed and wanted a right handed defence man in this draft and a lot of us thought Woo would be a solid pick with our first selection. To get him with our second is a steal. If our prospects can become pros Benning has completely rebuilt the whole team.

westcoastsniper Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Saw this from someone who watches Moose Jaw games... "One hopes Woo, who was held back a bit, if not quite a bit, by Hunter in Moose Jaw, is a lot better than people think. When he plays away from Hunter he plays a lot better, looks like a real competitor and his offence is better too. If Hunter lets him play and doesn’t sink him on the 3rd pairing for 1/2 the season….. After all, in the 1st twenty, when Moose Jaw’s defence was depleted, Woo played a lot, looked very good, and the Warriors were very good. Then late in the season, after his injuries and suspensions and trades, Hunter benched him in favour of Clague and Josh, because he prefers to play ‘veterans who know the right way to play’."

komodo0921 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Hughes was a great score but this guy brings much-needed physicality, in addition to some scoring punch, to our blueline. He matches well with any of our LHD. Love this pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanukfanatic Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 13 hours ago, MoneypuckOverlord said: those morons on hfboards.com hating this pick because he had concussion issues. "Oh I never had a concussion before" Jet Woo morons on hfboards.com "he's lying" unbelievable. I swear that some posters over there have mental health issues. Some of them have tens of thousands of posts, continually believe they actually know more about running a team then Benning, and crap on young men - our prospects (as if the posters never did anything sub par in their own lives). It really is a disgusting site. It is too bad as there is the occasional nugget of good info. The problem is, it is sprinkled in with dozens of whiny pathetic posts.

Scorevat Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I see a physical heart and soul guy who won't be afraid to lay a big hit to change the momentum of the game or stick up for his teammates. In other words, I see a lot of Kevin Bieksa in Woo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimito Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Still only 17. Got plenty time to develop to a top 4 NHL shutdown D. I guess he will play in jrs for another yr at least. Nux should be solid playoff contender in 2-3 yrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Viking Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Looking forward to watching his progress, hope he can bring a similar type of game Bieksa did. It is all up to the prospects to determine how succuessful they will be now. Woo seems to have that drive to want to succeed though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have insights? I only see a shoulder injury. Jett says in this video that he's never had a concussion. He seems really well spoken for a 17 year old. Better speaker than Quinn from what I've seen. Way better speaker than Boeser. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Encouraging too to consider that at 17 he's already the same height and 10lbs heavier than his father, yet still a very good and mobile skater. He could well grow another 2" and put on another 10-15lbs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
