Thanks. I forgot that import-angle. That's a good point.

i always forget that draft vs CHL 'corner case'
that, while he wasn't NHL draft eligible until 2022, because of his late '03 birthday,
his D+2 would still be classified as overage anyway because he will turn 20 in '23
thanks

Daniel Walcott signed an AHL deal yesterday
but that's after 8 consecutive seasons on NHL contracts!
(1 NHL GP)
drafted by NYR a few rounds after Shesty

He turned his entire game around. He's a hard-nosed, middle-6 AHL player who isn't afraid to mix it up. Good for him.
I also believe I heard that he is a really good locker room guy as well.

When I see Daniel Walcott's name it always remind me of his brother Karl who's an actor and who played a hockey player in a series. They also look like twins!

sorry if misleading, no not Hartford,
he signed with Syracuse, where he has played, since '15-16, on his prior NHL/Tampa contracts
I didn't post in the Hartford/Cincinnati topic, only here
he was one-time NYR draft pick,
wasn't gonna be signed by NYR so traded, for 7th, to TBL, way back

My guess would be Barbashev plays in Shawinigan this year. Hartford should have plenty of forwards and D. Maxim had a pretty good season last year but he was like 3rd/4th in scoring on his team and somewhere around the mid 30's for the QMJHL. Being on the older side of his draft season all that argues for a guy who will need to round out his game while chipping in offense after he turns pro. His path to the NHL is as a bottom 6 winger and it will take him some time to develop his game to the point he's ready for that.
Let's just hope Rangers sign him and he doesn't force himself to Vegas to play with his brother. I can see that happening as he dealt for a 7th lol next summer

Right now I'd say there's about an 80% chance we'll sign him and about a 25% he plays 200+ NHL games. That equates to being a fairly decent prospect at least to my eyes. Generally signing a player doesn't mean he'll become a serious NHL player or even get in a few NHL games. It's a process and he's kind of at the beginning of it. I don't see much chance of him becoming a top 6 forward for us or anyone else......but all that remains to be seen. It's just nothing I see so far points to that. It wouldn't shock me but I'd be a bit surprised if Vegas had all that much interest in him at this point in his journey. This thing of bringing brothers together doesn't really happen all that often.
Why would he force himself to an organization where he would have trouble working his way in?
These guys want to play ASAP so they can get that second contract ASAP.

Also, if Barbashev doesn't sign by June 1st, he has to re-enter the draft. He can't sign with Vegas as a free agent unless he goes undrafted in 2024.
CHL guys not signing is pretty rare because they usually will have to go back into the draft. The NCAA guys do it far more often because they're almost always going to become UFAs.
Having seen rosters for both the Västerås men's team as well as the J20 team, Rasmus Larsson isn't on either. This leads me to believe he is definitely coming to the U.S. to play for Green Bay in the USHL, who holds his rights.

Did we ever get confirmation on where Sykora is playing this season? CHL? AHL? Or staying overseas?
I don't think he's signed anywhere overseas so while it's not confirmation, it seems like he'll be crossing the pond this year.
CHL/AHL determination will likely be made after camp.
With the way he played in Hartford, I really doubt he is anywhere else but Hartford.

It depends if they want him to develop with 20+ minutes and PP/PK time (Juniors) to work on his offensive game, or 13-14 minutes with limited PP/PK time in the AHL.
I'm pushing for the not even 19 year old yet, to play big minutes in Juniors. Let him join the Pack at 20 years old.
But i'm fully expecting the Rangers to put him in the AHL. They don't like slow and steady developments.

My opinion is juniors for a year would be good for him as well

Sýkora has said that he will play in Hartford if he doesn't make the Rangers roster.
