[NiagaraKraken]

Seattle won the draft.

He’s gonna make a lot of teams pay for picking worse players over him because he’s a little undersized.

A tale as old as time.

Is he better or worse than the generational Ty Benson?

Zach. Catton’s a better skater. More of a puck handler and natural scorer. Not as smart or gritty. A center as opposed to winger. Better overall player.

Had a nice goal early tonight but more or less disappeared after that. Noticeably one of the better players on the ice but was hoping for more given the draft pedigree.

Decent wheels and a good shot, just wasn’t super involved after his goal.

Where's those guys that think he's a bad skater? Oh right, they've disappeared because they don't actually watch junior hockey. Too bad there's no Kraken fans on here to post his updates, he's been ripping it up in the dub.

Konsta Helenius is faster, amirite?

He has been pretty good. In the game against Kelowna I felt like he was the best player on the ice. The goal he scored against Price (another Kraken prospect) was really good.

Over the last 2-3 games he seems pretty committed defensively. I have also been impressed watching him use his skating and agility to keep possession in the offensive zone. His passing is next level.
