"A fiery winger with a penchant for turning big hits into big goals. Howe’s a missile on the forecheck and a clever body position-winner. He emphasizes body positioning over possession in all situations, going out of his way to wedge his back between the puck and the incoming defender. He sneakily shoves and grabs opponents to knock them off balance and get inside their hands."

I really like both picks and Jesse seems to love it too:

His production is interesting, was ppg as a 16 year old but his point totals havent really grown since that. That probably has alot to do with playing with Bedard the last two years.

 

[deakka]

Don't usually like the older ones as they should be further along. Also alarming his numbers droped this season, even if he had a bit worse teammates?

 

[Trade]

Know nothing about the kid outside of what I’ve just read, but consider me excited.

 

[SomeDude]

Really like this pick. Proved he wasn’t a product of Bedard this year and he’s a prick to play against.

 

[chethejet]

He does bring needed juice to the left side here. Yes playing with Bedard pumped up his points but he is a nice combo of skill and want to.

from what I read he had to be the guy in a not so great club and his production didn’t drop without bedard.

I think that’s a positive.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

He can rip it. If you’re going F there I like it more than Mustard, Plante, Artya-whatever… not more than Stiga.

"A bit worse" doesn't really describe the difference between playing with a generational talent one year and then being on a rebuilding team the next.

 

[Malkinstheman]

He led his team in scoring by 25 points. Yeah im not worried about his production

[rmartin65]

I really like this pick. I could see him being a solid NHLer for a long time.

 

[Turin]

He’s literally Kunitz

[deakka]

Saw someone said Farmham as a comparable. That upside!

Also I don't get how ppl are not concerned about the lack of production. He's barely scoring me than TWO seasons ago. And less than last year.

Ppl happy with a allegedly hard working forechecker? It's the 2nd round. You go for upside. Not safe picks with no upside like we did with both picks...

 

[Jacob]

I’m less enthused than with the Brunicke pick. He’s alright. I don’t like those older birthdates. And I don’t see him standing out in any particular facet.

 

[Your Boy Troy]

Howe looked like he was going to easily be a top-15 pick a couple of years ago, but it's apparent that his early production was enhanced by Bedard. I like this pick. They got another Saskatchewan kid to go along with Brayden Yager so there might be future chemistry between the two.

Finally one more person that seems underwhelmed.
The trait seems to be running his mouth and get under opponents skin.
That enough to use a high pick on apparently

 

[vodeni]

The recent history of our second picks tell me ....

 

[SEALBound]

Absolutely love the pick. I thought he'd be a late 1st for sure so the fact he fell to us is huge IMHO. Styistically, a very good complement to what we currently have.

Howe-Yager/Pono-Koivunen is a well rounded, nicely balanced line.

Very happy right now with this.

 

[MichaelFarrell]

I hate this pick. I was never impressed with Howe and the analysts I respected did not rank him high. I almost lost my mind when Dubas picked Brunicke and Howe over Artamonov and Stigia.

Make it make sense Dubas.

There it is. I was getting concerned nobody was bitching about this pick yet. Seems so out of character for this board.

Bffs.

Tanner Howe and Harrison Brunicke are both WHL guys, they know each other well from playing against each other and the combine. Howe also said one of his best friends is Brayden Yager, and Yager was texting him this morning saying he hopes the Penguins get him. Yager got his wish.
