GoldenAlien Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) F | 6'3" | 210 lbs Shoots | Left Born | 2002-08-13 Draft | 2020 Round 4 #113 Overall by Vancouver Canucks Elite Prospects: His hand-eye is excellent, and his balance in front of the net is so strong. Kunz really shows an understanding of his game and where he needs to go to be successful. His passing ability is evident. Kunz's willingness to get to high danger areas makes him so dangerous. His shot is heavy, and he possesses a quick release. Edited October 7, 2020 by GoldenAlien 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need winger prospects so this one seems like a good project pick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser and Stecher both got developed there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted October 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2020 An older Scouting News article called Kunz "one of the best kept secrets in the USA Hockey system." 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Anyway, can't complain about drafting a big kid out of the Minnesota HS/Prep system who tore up that level scoring nearly a goal per game. The little info I am seeing on him is largely positive. Gonna trust out scouts unearthed a diamond here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) A big body at 6'3 210 pounds, committed to North Dakota. I mean, I like this pick. We need big bodies, I just hope he also has some wheels to his game too. Sounds like a player that went under the radar. I know every year about every pick outside the first 2 rounds we say "could be a steal" but I honestly think this kid could be a steal. Sounds like the theme is big bodies. But sounds like Kunz also has some legit passing and shooting skills to his game. I am gonna be very curious about his development.

If you can't skate it's going to be hard to make the NHL. Who knows, not everyone winds up like Horvat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Bad feet is the negative I'm seeing with Kunz, but hard to say how much of an issue. Most of the people posting "scouting" on this player are just scrambling to get something out there on Twitter, lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsuro88 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) sounds like another Boeser here... (big shot, slow skating speed) Edited October 7, 2020 by Tetsuro88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
