Prospect Info: 2022-23 Ducks Prospects

[bsu]

The story you're purposely omitting is that both Comtois and Jones were the only consistent forwards who crashed the net. Sometimes, in Comtois' case, it's better to be lucky than good. Unfortunately, he came in out of shape last season and couldn't lug that extra weight to get to the front of the net in time to induce that luck.

One of the reasons for the Ducks selecting McTavish was his ability to not only crash, but set up beachfront property in front of the net.

With Jones healthy and the signing of Regenda, we now possess a lot more big bodies that crash the net. Colangelo and Gaucher also do the same.

Do you see the theme here to knock out the personal hatred you have on Comtois? If Comtois can't pull it off, then we have others lined up behind him.

smh

I don't have hatred toward Comtois, I'm just honest. I like him and hope he rebounds, I went to watch him roller hockey with some old teammates that play with him.

Don't be so sensitive Comtois sucked dick last year and has a lot to prove. Colangelo has been somewhat underwhelming too.

Hvidston is 1+1 tonight, a very nice start to his season offensively.

 

[bsu]

I liked him at camp and he's decently sized.

 

[GunnarStahl]

I watched the 2nd period of that game, he is solid, offensive ability and can pk, good tool kit

Mintyukov is making the game look so easy in his first 3 games. 3 games and 7 pts so far. He will break Bode Wilde's record for points by a D in a season. Watching the first 3 games Pavel looks better than I thought. He has explosive speed with great lateral movement while being able to distribute the puck to his teammates. This kid IMO will be a top 4 guy in the NHL sooner than later. It is only his 2nd yr of NA hockey.

Almsot all the goals I've seen him score leave me like unimpressed for some reason lol hopefully he turns into something we can use his size. His goals remind me a lot of Comtois goals a couple season ago, which I thought were fortunate for Max.

Same here. I haven't seen him engage much in battles, etc. He is a good shooter at the college level so he gets by with floating around but when I think about pro game... I think he will need some time. Hopefully we can sign him and send to SD at the end of the year

Hvidston is 1+1 tonight, a very nice start to his season offensively.

4p in 3g. Here's his goal, good timing for a tip-in.
I haven't watched more than highlights, but pre-draft he was louded for his defensive play, so I hope that's still the case

I watched the 2nd period of that game, he is solid, offensive ability and can pk, good tool kit

That's awesome. I'm on his bandwagon
He's another late-late birthday 5th round pick that is far from filled out physically, responsible defensively and with untapped offense. Terry was the same and it was fun (but loooing) following him to become a borderline star player (let's see how far he goes).
I hope there's lots of untapped potential in Hvidston, from what I seen and read, def looks like top9 potential, but surely some years away

That would be nice.... Lol

THE Bode Wilde???

[Goose of Reason]

I love this guy because he has so many sick highlights that you'd think he's lighting the league up but nope, just whenever he gets a point it's some ridiculous play

Looks like that's his first goal of the season. His production seemingly gets worse every year.

 

[Static]

Gaucher finished with two assists today, won 13/15 faceoffs.

 

[Static]

Pastujov has another goal and hinds an assist in the early evening games.



:40 second mark.

Lacombe has a first period assist for Minnesota.

 

[Static]

Mintyukov with a primary assist on the PP in the first period, just keeps on trucking.

 

[SergeConstantin74]

Gaucher’s 1st assist



You can see what I meant about Anaheim’s great free agent invite Charles Côté (#71)

 

[Static]

Hinds finished with two assists in an 8-5 win. 1+3 in first four games.

Kyle kukkonen with an assist in the third period.

 

[Goose of Reason]

Mintyukov adds a goal. Guy is a pure rover when his team needs offense, I can understand why some scouts may not like that lol.

Those scouts lack imagination.

Pastujov has added an assist.

 

[Static]

Pastujov was named first star of the game for Guelph.

 

[GunnarStahl]

ZELLWEGER ALMOST MICHIGANED

 

[Static]

Hvidston with some bite in this game. First fight of the season (career)?

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Hinds finished with two assists in an 8-5 win. 1+3 in first four games.

Kyle kukkonen with an assist in the third period.

I gotta give it up to our scouts and Murray for trading back into the 3rd round for Hinds and seeing that late developing offense could be be sustainable.

Also, Hinds getting that ELC contract signed is a huge boost to his confidence and reward for his work. We need a LHD shutdown defender and Hinds could be that player in the future.

 

[Static]

Zellweger has his first point of the season, a PP assist in the second period.

 

[Hockey Duckie]

I noticed the QMJHL game stats shows Dangerous Shots/Shots and Hits. Last I checked, neither the WHL nor OHL does this on their game stats. Unfortunately, DS/S and Hit counts are not integrated into their player statistics' pages. Maybe it will into the future.

 

[MMC]

When can we/are we likely to get Buteyets in SD (provided he performs well enough to earn a contract)?
