Is he going to be good or nah in your opinion
Way too early to tell. Played for four teams this season already. Sadly mostly U20 elites which is a poor junior league. Competition there isn't good enough for conclusions.

He's got good size and appears to be strong on faceoffs. As for the rest we'll find out next season when he's expected to play NL due to no longer counting as an import. Him playing in a European top league is gonna allow us find out what he's all about. Hope he gets to play WJC20 and/or more SL this season though. U20 elites is meh.

Watching Catton tonight. He does so many little things well too. In a tough game vs a stacked Blades team. Right side of the puck as a center, sees the ice so well. Pointing to his teammates where to be.

I think Fantilli was better than Celebrini.

Eh.. Fantilli doesn't have Celebrini's hockey sense. He's definitely bigger, faster and better as a puck handler (much more dynamic) but he was also a late birthday. Celebrini is a 17 year old who plays like a dog on a bone. What he's doing is more impressive to me and he'll only get better.

Yeah there are a ton of factors. I’m just saying I think if you put Macklin in last years draft he goes 4.

He’s just not as dynamic. But certainly way younger and I totally get that factor. IQ also much better.

I get it. Fantilli was definitely more flash. Much more exciting player. Celebrini is more cerebral if that makes sense.

Funny thing is when I watched Boston play USHL in an exhibition, Eiserman was the much better player. You would think he's the #1 projected with how he played. That kid is so dynamic with an insane shot. I'm high on Eiserman. Watch three games of his and he's come a long way. Celebrini is still the much smarter player and that is what I bank my money on when it's all said and done.

I still put Eiserman as the #2 guy for me as of now. His passing and vision surprised me. Its underrated. Levshunov and Catton are neck and neck for #3.

I just feel like Eiserman's total game is not at the tier of Levshunov or Macklin. He's too hit and miss. Feels like Eiserman could be Mantha or he could be Rick Nash.

I sometimes forget that Eiserman is about as young as you can get though.

Also there were tons of delays in the game tonight with a fire alarm and shit going off so I watched the Minnesota replay on my phone and just skipped for Rinzel and Moore shifts. Rinzel is seriously something. We might be needing to pay more attention. This guy might be unreal. There are points in the game where it looks like he can legit just do whatever he wants.

The big thing with Rinzel for me is that he’s been this good this early for Minnesota. This kid was supposed to be a major project and he’s already looking like a borderline dominant college hockey player. He might be better than we thought and he might get there way quicker than we thought

Forgot to mention that I thought Greene scored on a tip play in front from Celebrini to make it 4-1 but it was tipped by a defender.
