Prospect Info: 2023-2024 Rangers Prospects Thread (Prospect Stats in Post #1; Updated 05.22.2024)

[The Crypto Guy]

Perreault currently on a 5 game point streak (1G - 7A - 8P)

 

[ThirdEye]

Is it safe to say yet that Perreault has higher upside than either Kakko or Lafreneire?

Neither is a finished product, and it's a significant step up from the NCAA to the NHL. Maybe he will end up being better, but Kreider wasn't a 30 goal scorer 3 years ago, now he's on his way to his 3rd in a row at age 32.

free speech, so yeah should be safe say speculative things

but Laf and Kakko were dominant amateurs also
and not sure Gabe has a physical game approaching either

glad he's talented and contributing,
hope he just keeps getting all'round better, for a few years, on his way to the pros

 

[UnSandvich]

Is it safe to say yet that Perreault has higher upside than either Kakko or Lafreneire?

Of any of the 3, he has the single aspect I like most, which is his razor-sharp hockey IQ. But none of them are finished products, and I'd hate to write any off too soon

 

[MrAlmost]

I really hope we leave Perreault in college at least another year. Maybe even 2. Better to be over-prepared than under-developed.

Yeah, there's really no reason to park him in the AHL at age 20.

With Othmann, it's a different story because he played junior hockey. You sign them within 2 years or they re-enter the draft. But college players give you more flexibility.

Go back and check what Kakko accomplished in the year leading to the draft.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

No.

Both Kakko and Lafrenière accomplished more at the same age than Perreault has so far.

 

[GAGLine]

Perreault with 2 assists so far, both on the PP. The second was a primary on a nice cross ice feed on a 5-3.

 

[Levitate]

Secondary assist on BC’s first goal and primary assist on their second goal

Also had several good shots/scoring chances and missed a few others including what would have been a tap in but the puck slid under his stick somehow

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Perreault should stay for one more year and then we can reassess.

Depends on how he grows physically.

 

[Levitate]

3rd assist of the night I think. Passed it off his line mate in stride to facilitate the quick attack and resulting goal. Secondary assist

E: currently days unassisted because the centering pass was blocked but almost rolled over the line and a BC lkayrrs poked it over? NHL would give assists for that dunno what NCAA will do

They fixed it. He has the assist.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

3 assists so far. Playmaking machine.

Kakko is from Turku.

 

[Levitate]

Last one was definitely more incidental and Smith made a very good play driving to the net, but Perrault did let Smith keep his speed coming across the blue line which pushed back the D and gave him space to make his move

 

[RangersFan1994]

3 assists so far. Playmaking machine.

Yay another playmaker. at least hes smart enough to not pass on a breakaway lmfao

 

[rangersfansince08]

his shot is decent. i guess his ceiling is panarin though

he's perfect for Kreider Zibs since they will never be separated

Panarin Pettersson Laffy
Kreider Zibs Perreault
Cuylle Tro Othmann

let me dream

 

[RangersFan1994]

his shot is decent. i guess his ceiling is panarin though

90 point player, let's hope he is that good. Let's hope he produces in the playoffs when it matters

 

[Irishguy42]

If a players ceiling is Panarin, you take that shit to the bank because it's amazing.

 

[nyr2k2]

If a players ceiling is Panarin, you take that shit to the bank because it's amazing.

Yeah, had Panarin started his career in the NHL a couple years earlier, we'd likely be talking about will he make the HOF. If that's a guy's upside...yeah.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Gabe has 7 shots tonight, he’s not afraid to shoot.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Game over, BC won 3-2, Gabe with all the apples on them.

Now is tied in points to lead the team with 11 in 8 games. Tied with 4th overall Will Smith. Leonard, Mr 8th overall, has 7 points.
