Yep again today another Hatty kid is a freak

Three in past six games

Brantford wins 5-1..not their A game but still thanks to Kardis's efficiency of beating goalies the score differential is big as he gets 3g 1a..

As I said.. thisxwas not Brantfordcdonubaribgca game..notvtheirctoo effort or sharpness..2nd line with Vanackerxand OBrien had a quiet game offensively...but Vanacker did hit a cri
Oss-bar...failed to convert on a PK break-away and had several key shot blocks when the 67s were pressing in tge Brantford o-zobe.. Brantford goalie Leendrs played welk making somecey saves...the late Ottawa only goal was not his fault, as a Brantford dman made a horrible give-away ...

So Brantford dod not play a great game but when you have a star beating goalies when he shoots it makes it easy to mask a pretty bad team effort not upto theirviwn standards.. thatvis what Lardis can do..makevitceasy forc his team Onan "off" game to still leave with a lop-sided win..

Could you imagine if Lardis was a Leafs or Habs prospect? He’s be top ten on every list with two one hundred page threads on the prospects board.

This is true

Is Lardis a skinny fast soft Alex Ovechkin? Here I thought Bedard was gonna be Hawks leading goal scorer for the next decade….

Bedard scored 71 in 56 games...in his DRAFT YEAR.

Lardis is lighting up the OHL as a 19 year old. We are all cheering for him but he has a long way to go.

They’d be posting daily redraft threads.

He's fast and he doesn't play a physical game but he's not skinny - he's 5'11" / 185lbs - and remember how well he did against his peers at the 2023 Prospects Draft Combine when he was "skinny" at 168lbs - he placed 1st in several events (including chin ups and vertical jumps) and several other top-10 finishes. He's a quick-twitch athlete.

yeah, Bedard and Lardis are the same age (Lardis is like nine days older). Bedard actually had a higher GPG in the WHL two years ago than Lardis in does in the OHL this year. Which is less a knock on Lardis than a reflection on how absurdly good a Junior player Bedard was. Also does show how scoring projections are difficult when you hit NHL (particularly on a bad team).

Again I didn't see anything noticeably bad/wrong with him in the game today. I know it's not right to continue to blame other players or circumstances but that's all I got. I was complaining for weeks that his centerman Zernov was playing like crap to the point that it seemed like he was trying to freeze out Kantserov like he was jealous of the attention he was getting. Then after Yurov went down with an injury Coach Rezin was line juggling where he even played Kantserov at center, Today Zernov was demoted to the 4th line and Luke Johnson (yes, that Luke Johnson), who had been 3C/4C, was Kantserov's center on the top line.
