Not done growing yet at least 7' 280lbs by the time he fills out. He's got the full lanky thing going on

Love the variety here. Love the potential. A lot of projectible players with clear paths as to what types of players they can be.

Lafreniere - Franchise-level forward that you build your team around. A keystone player whose presence reverberates throughout the lineup.

Schneider - Defensive specialist makes other teams bring their A game to counter your high-end scoring. You can pair with him an offensive guy as protection, or put him with another defensive player to shut down the opposition.

Cuylle - Physical support player with the talent to skate with your high-skill guys and the intimidation to buy them some space and make other teams thing twice. Underrated skill set here.

Tarnstrom - Kind of a Swiss Army Knife player who has underrated potential as a playmaker. To me he looks like a guy who could surprise offensively. He reads the play well and regularly seems ready to take advantage. In my somewhat limited viewings, he reminds me a little bit of Anisimov at the same age.

Garand - A technically sound goalie who always seems to be in position to make the save and doesn't waste a lot of energy. He looks bigger in the net than his size because he makes himself a target. Doesn't make a ton of acrobatic saves, but he doesn't have to. Was excellent at following the puck.

Vierling - Really like the value. High, high IQ players who impacts all areas of the ice. Had a chance to show off his offensive capabilities after a trade. I see a lot of Dom Moore in this kid and can easily envision him having a long career where he serves in a third line role, brings energy and constant motion and provides depth.

Berard - Excellent skating ability and who keeps the wheels churning. An all-around offensive threat who is a long term project, but a potential steal. This is a kid who can make you look incredibly smart in 3 or 4 years if he pans out.

I'm not one to be obsessed with size but that's not just size. That's size you get excited about.

We went with boom or bust little guys, so I think it was a good move here to take a body that you can probably do a lot with, even if the skill isn't there at the highest levels.
