2025 DRAFT Discussion

[SantosHalper]

Thanks for the write up, it is appreciated. One question: do you feel confident he's a center in the NHL, or is he more likely to play on the wing? Not necessarily an issue for me, just curious.

Thanks again.

Well he can win face-off's at good rate but i think it comes down to the skating. How well he can improve it but im feeling confident that skating will improve. Im no skating coach but common sense would say muscle to the legs and technique training would improve explosiveness. First steps gets faster and he moves better from the forecheck to D-zone, if somehow the puck battle is lost but the way this team is being built. That shouldn't happen often.
