Elite Prospects says he's 6'4" / 187 lbs

He's grown or he measured on his tippie toes somewhere.

That must apply in Jr as well... because I see that term there also.
- dozerD10


In Junior, it's for ages 16-20. They have a cap on overage players (players who are 20 years old). I think it's 3 per team. So there's a difference in the meaning of the term.

At the draft you can enter in your 18th birth year - someone can correct me here, but I think it's based on like a June 1 birthdate - if you are passed over in your first year and re-enter, you are an overager. You can re-enter twice I believe and then you're just a free agent.

Honestly I would have taken David Edstrom. He'll probably never be flashy, but he could be a solid pick who has greater perceived trade value over the next couple of years even if you don't like his progress.

I will place some faith in Clark that Trelivnig said, "Who is the best player in your opinion available between now and the mid-third when we could acquire another pick?"

Unlike some, I do like what the scouting staff have done. I believe in a number of the prospects in the organization. We'll see!

- Monkeypunk


I second this pick.

He was ranked in the proper range, he's a much bigger body, he plays C and he has the same two-way game. I would always draft a C over a LW/RW because if you fail at C, you can always become a winger but not the other way around.

I would have also liked if they had taken one of the top ranked goalies in the draft be it Hrabal (who is a 6'6" monster who can move kinda like Adin Hill who turned out to become really useful for a 3rd rounder), Augustine or Bjarnason.

The Leafs are atrocious at drafting and developing goalies and it would be fantastic if they could flood their system with some top prospects in net.

I understand that they have Woll who has some promise and a couple other guys in the system but I'd really like to see them fill the cages at every level with goalies that have top tier potential.

If you hit a home run like a Vasilevskiy, it's a giant difference maker. We see it every generation be it Roy, Brodeur, Hasek or whoever that having a top tier goalie eventually turns into a Stanley Cup eventually.
