Karine Hains: 2018-2019 Upper Deck OPC Platinum Review While your traditional O-Pee-Chee cards are rather old school and sober, the Platinum version is all about the shiny colours making them a favorite for young collectors.

Suzuki has the vision and play making ability that could serve this pathetic power play well, as early as next season!!

He also has a pretty good shot and is a right shot, both things the Habs are missing.

I predict he starts the year in Laval, gets called up after 20-30 games and never looks back.

Yea his shot is of big league caliber for sure, all the talk about his skating is a tad overblown, I've watched the kid quite a bit recently, looks like an NHL player to me

We'd have to ask Engels about the sound of his strides just to be sure.

It happens when players are over scouted, there's alot of people who said Tavares wasn't a good enough skater also.

Obie, in terms of offense does he bring more or less than Peca?

A solid ten minutes before Octagon's hockey camp session is set to get underway, Nick Suzuki gets the sheet to himself. He saunters down to secure the nets, not wanting to wait for targets. His blades cut the sounds of NHL strides. His shot blisters off the crossbar at NHL speed, transferred from wrist to stick-tape with the ease you expect from an NHL sniper. He dangles, smoothly and precisely. He smiles when forward Jonathan Drouin steps on the ice, as the two exchange saucers and bullet-paced one-timers before the heavy lifting of intense drills play out over the next hour and a half.

Suzuki takes on the drills with determination, aiming to perfect them. It's play, but for Suzuki, it definitely looks like work. The others--prolific NHLers like Milan Michalek and Martin Havlat, Michael Frolik and P.A. Parenteau take the opportunity to catch their breath in between the high intensity drill circuits while Suzuki hunches over his stick for a second before grabbing six or seven more pucks to shoot. There's a hunger there, and it speaks even louder than the impressive skillset he displays.

By the time these guys are done with this boot camp, the ice needs emergency surgery. Suzuki is among the last to step off, no worse for wear.

He wasn't. He worked on it constantly, and his skating improved tremendously. But you can't teach what he already had.

The problem is Bergevin signs so much fringe NHL players that you don't even know who could make the team. We'll have to wait and see at camp.

Couldn't agree more, it's why I questioned the Thompson signing so much, not to take anything away from Nate the Great, but he's not needed

If Suzuki is good enough to play in the NHL, I doubt the possibility of losing Nate Thompson to waivers will be the reason he goes to Laval...

Not saying that. Just don't think skating will be a problem for him in the long run.
