I don't know if I wanted us to take him, but has anyone ever dropped off this bad? Scouts question his drive. Seems like he might be one of those pouty Finns.

Herberts Vasiljevs Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Klimovich strikes as a violent player. Makes us tougher, for sure. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Wonder what's up with Raty? Shocked he's still not taken, the guy was ranked in the Top 5 not long ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 https://thehockeywriters.com/danila-klimovich-2021-nhl-draft-prospect-profile/ Quote Klimovich is a highly creative goal scoring forward with an NHL caliber shot and a compete level that is off the charts. He also knows how to finish his chances, which is something that can elude a lot of players striving to be consistent offensive producers. All in all, he has all the skills of a top line forward, which makes it hard to believe that we are just discovering him a couple of months away from the draft. I guess if he was playing in a more prominent league like the KHL or MHL, we probably would have known about him sooner. All in all, Klimovich’s name is one to keep an eye on, as he could become a steal in the first few rounds. North America could be seeing more of him in the coming seasons too, as he was drafted in the 2020 CHL Import Draft by the QMJHL’s Rouyn-Noranda. If he does ultimately come over from Belarus, I’m sure he will quickly become a household name, that is, if he isn’t already. “The size, the skills, the hockey sense are all there for him to be an offensive producing player and he’s consistent in his approach. He’s got NHL speed and competes hard. Now, he does have a flair for the dramatic at times, but that’s good. It means he’s confident, but, every shift, he’s first on pucks, always going to the net and he’s got that knack to be open and available to get that shot off. He’s on the top line and is the top scorer and he’s one of the first forwards coming back on the play.” – Dan Marr, director of NHL Central Scouting “While his skill is clearly raw, he’s got a quick release and, in a similar vein as Alex Ovechkin, he has a knack for finding open ice – something Klimovich considers a strong point in his game. Klimovich has agile hands that allows him to control the puck effectively and while his skating isn’t anything special, he can move the puck at a nice speed.” – Steven Ellis, The Hockey News 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogpodz91 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Was hoping for Morrow or Raty…. Was reading up on this kid this morning, and it sounds like there is unlimited potential with this guy. If it works out , he Projects to be a top 6 forward…. Fast, bag and has a rocket of a shot… we just need another 2nd round pick ASAP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googlie Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Scouch says ..... "I saw Danila Klimovich at the U18s just like everyone else, and he could be an interesting pickup for teams looking for a triggerman with deceptive skill, but he's still a project to me." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Devron Posted July 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2021 Stankoven would be an intriguing pick. But do we really need another small forward in the system? We already have 2 beauties in Hogz and Garland on the team. I like Klimovich pick! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucksownyou Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 So, is Klimovich a center or a winger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an under the radar pick, for sure and someone they likely get into their system early. I don't know anything about him, but sounds like he plays the style theyre looking for. I didn’t know a lot about Hoglander either and I love the kid. Im really liking the new approach to choosing players who play with intensity. You need those players to win. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKNuck96 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 not the pick I was expecting but I’m pretty happy with this. Someone meantioned jake replacement and I think you are right, but a jake replacement that plays on the aggressive side. watched some games he played in the Belarusian top league this season (saw him in 3) and he seemed very aggressive, used his body well, and didn’t try to force the game and took the sensible option when on the puck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
