From what you remember. I don't blame you for blocking the triggering memory of getting repeatedly BTFO by Wahlstrom this season.

Rofl you warmduscher hes never shown me he has a willlingness to not play from the perimeter. Can you blame me, Ive got PTSD from all the Pacioretty Drouin and Desharnais ive seen over the years.
 
You mean, he has Jack Hughes as his center and favors getting lost in coverage so he can exploit his ridiculous shot?

All the great goal scorers do this, that's not a negative lmao

Hence lets draft the player that controls the play instead of the player that wont do anything round these parts

Can someone edit this gif with footage of Wahlstrom's performance against Canada?

Yeah Berggren not even getting an invite to the NHL combine was a head scratcher for sure. I mean, his U-18 alone should have been enough to shake the whole ''he plays in a jabroni league'' thing right ? Even if it's a weaker league, he did end up the top scorer in it, playing less game than most. That means something.

He looked alright in the SHL too. I think he'll do some damage next season.
 
He does also control the play.. he's a very very smart player, he recognizes his spots.

Didn't see him play that much, wonder if he's more assertive when at center than on the wing, where he, indeed, is a passenger.

Before the coming of Hughes, he played C more often, right ?

He was more assertive before Hughes but that's just smarts. He let Hughes dictate the play and got open to rip his shot. But when the puck is on his stick, he's dangerous to do whatever he wants.
 
All that Barry talk reminds me that I feel Bokk doesnt get talked about enough. Theres a chance he goes top 15, but theres also a chance he might fall. Thats probably the forward id be the most thrilled if he fell after Barry. Kid has skillz.
 
Bokk is probably THE most under the radar prospect out of the consensus top 31. You just don't hear much about him, for whatever reason.

Snake Boisvert has him 6th but his rankings are very unconventional.
