Prospect Info: 85th Overall - Brett Harrison

[OV]

He'll be competing with Marchand for worst eyebrows on the team lol

Marchand's eyebrows are an advanced goal targeting system. We need to be ecstatic
that Harrison has a similar set of built in cross hairs!!

Another solid pick IMO. This guy could have been taken at the end of the 1st and it wouldn't have been considered crazy.

 

[SpitfireIX]

This is a steal

This is really makes me happy about the pick. Liked it when it happened really like it now that it has the Dominator's blessing

My son just turned 20 ... so weird to see these kids being drafted at age 18. One of them things that makes me feel old. That and now some greys in my eyebrows. lol

 

[Lobster57]

I agree. I think this kid can be a good middle 6 forward. Like a nick ritchie or jonah gadjovich. Great value in round 3

I get he's only 22, but how can you call Gadjovich a "middle 6" forward when he's played a grand total of 1 NHL game?

It is weird. When I started watching, they all looked like big, grown men. Then, some of the draft guys were in my peer group, then I was of an age of the average player, then I was a bit older, but maybe like some the oldest vets. Then they were all younger, and now, like you, all the draft picks are a few years younger than my daughter. Like I said, weird.

Well to be fair, you can tell just from the picture that he is a bust. Guys that become NHL regulars NEVER have bikes that are that shade of blue.

OMG so cute!!!

I know the feeling. They all look like kids because well, they are kids and we're getting older !!!

They're all younger than my nephew who is an old man of 22

I like it when Kirk goes boom

note Kirk was the first guy I remember who was on Bergeron & Swayman the day they were drafted - actually afterwards that night when he had time to get a little in-depth but he nailed it

looks undersized based off the pic.


Also i think harrison will be good lol. Why the hostility towards me i think he’ll be a pro for a long time

 

[DaaaaB's]

I just realized Brett is the son of Tim Harrison who is a Senior A legend in the area I'm from. I know it's just Senior A but his dad was a beast back in the 90's. His dad is also a lifelong Bruins fan.

Any news on this prospect? Is he projecting as an nhler?

Can't tell in juniors, really. He's having a good D+1 season, topping last year's goal totals in far fewer games. Consistent production before and after being traded, though it feels like he's getting more stars-of-the-game in Windsor. And while there's still debate about it, he might be a left winger.

Good development season for a late '03 birthday. Nothing much to complain about, nothing to go overly wild, aside from a few bell ringer goals that get posted on twitter.

NHLer? I think we'll need to see him in the AHL at minimum to get a grip on that.

 

[SirSamofHouseBennett]

It’s been a year. How has he done?

Slow introduction to the AHL

 

[Saxon Eric]

Shown nice improvement since the start of the season, starting to get 2nd unit PP time, not afraid to get his nose dirty which was a criticism earlier, is kinda blocked from moving up but that will fix itself next year, could use more strength and muscle going forward
