Prospect Info: 2024 47th Overall, Max Plante

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

4 pts in 3 games, currently out scoring Cole Eiserman

That’s awesome to see Plante doing well. And something tells me there won’t be many people upset for passing on Eiserman in the next few years.

He was in my don't draft list

I was at the WJSS finale between the U.S. and Canada. The A-list guys for USA (Leonard, Buium, Augustine, etc.) weren't playing so it seemed like a final audition for the players.

Plante figured prominently in the game; assisted on the 1st goal, had some shifts in OT...made two sick passes that really should have been buried, was picked in the shootout, even played on the PK tonight!

He had a real solid week and I would be shocked if he wasn't picked for the WJC team. I'm really liking what I have seen from him so far. He can connect on borderline impossible passes. As a nice bonus, he's willing to take a hit to make a play in the defensive zone. He was getting beat down today.

He can connect on borderline impossible passes.

He is a superb passer, as advertised. He's pretty much scanning the ice as soon as he gets the puck on his stick.

What I liked is he made smart passes and didn't force them.

Sounds really nice...

Eli playmakers usually live very well with all the other weaknesses on their play.

The big talent Plante play in Detroit this year because of his previous form curve in his previous team.

I hope this guy is our Marner.

And yes, Marner is an excellent hockey player. You just need to use him in a right way.

Raymond is our Kinda Marner. Plante is our Elwis Presley

Lol, his balls haven’t even dropped yet.

Coming from his biggest fan; Max would get killed in the NHL. He needs to physically mature, work on making better decisions in his own zone and his skating could improve.

He has savant level playmaking while on the rush but he leaves himself open to being hit and giving up pucks in the defensive zone. A couple years of weight training and playing at Duluth will sort him out

We should come back to this conversation in 3 years.
For next 2 seasons I could see Kasper, Danielson, Mazur, Buchelnikov, Becher, ASP, Soderblom, MBN jump in NHL and we have Berggren and Johansson who will play this season in NHL, but it is 10 guys and I have no idea how Yzerman could manage that.
Expect trades, expect some of our young guys be gone via trade and some of those trades will not be good

I think it is 13 Veteran contracts (3 Goalies, 6 D-men and 4 Forwards) expire over the next two seasons...so there is room for them if they are ready.

4 -6 weeks sounds like a broken bone. That sucks.

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

I kinda want to know who was the Beaver that roughed him up. I don't like that person.

 

[Our Lady Peace]

Still an 18 year old 2nd round pick. I get a good pro kind of feel watching his game. He's kinda Kasper-esque but a winger
