Prospect Info: 25th Pick in the 2024 NHL Draft - Dean Letourneau C | St. Andrew's College 6'7" 214

[Kegs]

Hey guys, not sure how many folks get wrapped up in the Prospects board, but I made a post over there on Letourneau mostly for this video where I talk about the concepts that he needs to incorporate into his game to reach his - in my opinion - pretty massive upside.

If it's of interest, mind you, it's not a highlight reel - I'm sure there's plenty of those out there...

There isn’t a lot of highlight reels from Ontario highschools sadly.

This sounds weird, but you might actually be better off. Highlight reels for that level of hockey can create some pretty unrealistic expectations because of the level of almost everyone else haha

Nice thing about Letourneau is that I didn't find that he "punched down" at his level. He wasn't throwing kids into the stands and scoring on 45 foot wrist shots.

I just want someone to fine comb through every game and make a compilation video of all his points. Is that too much to ask?

Has anyone watched a lot of BC? Is he playing okay? He’s a first round pick

Lots of people here watch him alot.He is buried behind alot of really good players this season they said.Don't quote me,( Strong team) but I thought one person said an injury was giving him a chance for more minutes .

I've watched about 8 games I would say on ESPN + which is amazing. I think overall he has been pretty nondescript. I saw him play the right side a bit with Hagens and Stiga and he just looked like he didn't belong. He was "ok" with Berard. He is good along the wall and likes to get the puck back to the point. He looks to have decent hands....his shot hasn't looked great..his skating looks not all that great but I look at him with the context of coming from where he was to maybe the best team in college hockey, it's got to be intimidating. I would expect him to have a bigger role next season and better numbers. This to me is a "redshirt" season.

Jellvik is hurt and he has been more noticeable for certain,

I know he's older but I love Gasseau.

BC looks terrible so far tonight,

You can't have "alittle" and you can't have "alot".
