Prospect Info: 2023 WJC Thread

[Devs3cups]

Who do we all have ? Hughes Nemec Casey ( he should have started over others for USA) Hauser Vilen and ? I think that’s all of them ?
Hauser Vilen and Filmon all look like very good picks in later rounds . Casey I think could be seen as a steal somewhat if he continues to develop like he has so far( I know Filmon is not at the tourney )

Yup, these are the 5 this year. You can see the stats in the OP on the 1st page, I update them as the games go on!

Germany getting destroyed here.

8-0 for the US. Would be nice for Luke to get on the scoresheet before the end of the game. High chance of that happening, he's been very active.

 

[Devs3cups]

Luke leading the US in TOI by basically 4 minutes, but has no points. Weird lol, he's been very active and easily could have a few points.

That will fit in nicely with the Devils as of late.

WJC's are wacky usually with points, but I've been happy with Luke's overall play.

I tend not to put much stock in point totals at the WJC as it's such a short tournament. Overall play a little more, but still have to take it with a grain of salt as it's a small sample.

I think it's a nice complement to what you already know about a guy given it's against the best in the world, but yeah, I wouldn't necessarily use it heavily to determine who I'm drafting, etc.

USA wins 11-1! Luke led the US in ice-time again with 22:34. Over 3 minutes more than any other US skater. Also had 3 shots on goal.

Probably going to be a rough game for Nemec

 

[Xirik]

Trial by fire babyyy!

Yeah, no supporting cast and against Canada, could be rough. I think he'll be good though, wouldn't be surprised if he goes over 30 minutes today.

 

[Devils090]

Slovaks outshooting Canada 5-0 in the first few minutes, Nemec has made some good plays

 

[Blender]

The Slovak's top 2 lines have caved in Canada to start the game. Interested to see if they can keep that pace up. Canada also has a lot better depth.

 

[Devils090]

Mama there goes that man, Bedard 1-0 off a turnover

 

[Blender]

Bedard breaks Canada's scoring record already, 1-0.

 

[Devs3cups]

Nemec made a good play in the D-zone to break up the offense, his teammate #12 f***ed it up.

 

[Devils090]

Bedard is a little undersized no?

5'10, 185 lbs. Weight is fine for his height.

 

[Devils090]

TSN feed whining about a “cross check to the head” that was clearly to the back

Nemec gets a penalty, starting to get chippy

Looks about 5’9 165 on TV lol

Watching Nemec's highlights in Slovakia and in the AHL, he does have an edge to his game.

 

[My3Sons]

Nemec’s cross check was unnecessary

Good, love seeing a guy clear his crease
