People really need to stop mentioning Makar when talking about this guy. He basically “plays like Makar” at 1/2 the speed and explosiveness, which in reality, is nothing like Makar because those are his defining attributes. If Makar didn’t have that speed and explosiveness, his game wouldn’t work at the NHL level.

I wanted the Habs to pick him more than anyone, but let’s be realistic. My hope for him is basically Torey Krug. If he becomes similar to that, we are golden.

Bobby Orr and Paul Coffey play like Makar. No active NHL player does.

It’s been a number of years now the SN has covered the draft, but I still can’t get acclimated to Cosentino and others, instead of Bob McKenzie etc.

It’s because the TSN productions were superior in every way. Sportsnet manages to make you feel like you’re watching some obscure local coverage of high school sports.

Makar's game would work on IQ alone.

Yes. That’s exactly what it’s like!! Thank you. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but that sums it up perfectly.

He's special because he's great at every aspect of the game of hockey

Every one at the NHL level is great at every aspect. Makar’s skating and related attributes are what he’s head and shoulders above everyone else at (except McDavid). There are guys with comparable IQ, passing, guys with better defense, better shots. This isn’t debatable lol. Unless you’re saying Makar is the best at every single aspect, which is quite obviously false.
 
The best thing about this kid is to forget him for 2-3 years, Let him develop in University but my little Christal ball tells me that if he can grow another 2 inches and develop is strength and explosiveness that he will be the steel of this draft.

Hutson is going to make a lot of GMs bang their head off their desk in the future.

I’m super super high on this kid. His hockey IQ is great, he has great skating and he moves the puck exceptionally well. Like you said, you let this kid marinate in the NCAA for 2-3 years and look out. He likely grows to be 5’11” when it’s all said and done based on his genetics.

I wanted him or Firkus at 26, so yeah I like him. Lol

Frankie the Bouillon Cube!!

Was about to comment Bouillon was 5'8" too and was nowhere as dynamic and such a great passer but he had a good career. If he can grow another inch or 2, gain a good 20 pounds and keep that fire inside, daaamn.... playing with an Edmunson type, he could be reeally good. Nice swing there hugo, might connect and fwiiiiiii, hit the scoreboard.
