This bit was from a Finnish guy who watches these guys play more regularly than most people:



So clearly he has the talent and tools, consistency and decision making is what needs to improve. That can come with age/maturity and proper development.

Hard not to like the pick.

Also, we need to note that this pick is more scrutinized than usual since it's our first pick in the draft lol. Doubt there would be this much discussion if the Canucks had a 1st and 2nd round pick as well.

So he can skate and he's tall. That's the entire scouting report. I miss Brackett already

https://dobberprospects.c...raft-prospect-joni-jurmo/


Says he watches guys like Vatanen, Heiskanen, Chabot and Makar(the Quinn Hughes rival)

I liked this quote:
Q: How would you describe yourself as a player to someone who has never watched you play?

A: A big, puck-moving defenseman who skates really well and can make good breakout passes and carry the puck up the ice. I may not be the craftiest player in the offensive zone but I’m pretty good there. In the defensive zone, I’m not completely terrible but pretty okay there as well. But I need to do a lot of work to improve in that area.



He knows what he needs to work on.

Damn sounds like a great pick
- CanuckDon


I am not disagreeing but Briesnois was also 6'4 drafted third round so I need to see him play and more so develop.

I like the pick but I would have trusted anyone they picked.

Not sure what to tell you man, it's a kid drafted in the mid rounds, most of the public scouting reports will be generic. This isn't the Canucks scouting report that we're posting.


What exactly does this have to do with Brackett?

You are trying to predict what these players will be.

You have "raw talent" that you hope that a player unlocks sooner or later. Does this not sound a bit like Tryamkin?

- manvanfan


Of course you're trying to predict what they might become but based on 7 games (like in Scouching report) or you basing you judgement off Scouchings video ("he's a 6th rounder) is asinine - Plus, is Scouching a pro-scout? or some regular d$ckweed like the rest of us - who just so happens to have spare time on his hands to watch a lot of games and put videos up on YouTube. What I gathered from the clips and report was he has the raw tools and the holes/issues in his game are very much teachable, room for improvement.

Moj is hearing some interesting scuttlebutt coming down the line regarding Jacob Markstrom & it involves the Oilers having a ton of interest in the netminder. @DonnieandTheMoj



Who needs McKenzie and Friedman, every radio host here is an insider now

What does Marwood have to do with this? Serious question mini?

My post was an observation of your comments regarding prospects that are scouted by professionals and you dismissing their reports because you watched a video, and also you mocked DCT for his drafts takes as if you are the true expert and only expert.

So again I ask WTF does Marwood have to do with my take on your posts.

- Makita


I can see you think that I hold my opinion above others. Well it is my opinion, so obviously it's going to seem like that to you and yes I like to poke fun at DCT for some of his picks.

It's called banter, I don't take what he says too seriously and I'm sure he doesn't care about my opinion either.

I can't imagine you've never complained about a player the Canucks have drafted.
