C Berkly Catton - Spokane Chiefs, WHL (2024, 8th, SEA)

[Boxscore]

Really wish we picked Catton over Yakemchuk.

For the Sens? Really? I love Catton but Yakemchuk is going to be perfect in Ottawa. He'll end up a 20g, 60-point defenseman who pulls the fans out of their seats. Demidov, Yakemchuk, Catton an Hutson were my favorite players from the 24 draft... with Iggy, Buium, and Parekh up there too.

Yakemchuk has only marginally been better than last season and I think the Sens need another gamebreaking forward.

Spokane is an absolute wagon right now. Catton has been nuts and they blitzed us. Seattle has been improving with wins again Vancouver, Medicine Hat and Portland.

Catton is 16-18-34 in 13 games after Cristall arrived while Cristall is 9-26-35 in those games. Cristall overall getting more points per game, but is getting less goals so far. While Catton have exploded in goalscoring with 16 in 13 games which is more than the 14 he had the first 28 games. Van Olm also with 14 goals in 13 games after Cristall arrived.

In Kelowna Cristall had to score himself, but here he can do more of a playmaking role which suits his game more and Catton with another playmaker get the chance to shoot more while he had to create most of the offence. While i see Van Olm as more of a goalscorer with a good shot and not a guy driving a line in the same way Catton and Cristall are able to.

Van Olm basically scored a scholarship just by being on that line.

Good point as both Cristall and Catton were the primary offensive threat on their respective teams, and now they can play off each each other and you can see the results.

Was comfortable taking him at 2 (wanted us too) and would be really happy with his season if we had taken him there. Wasn't sure he could top last season but he's already shown he can.
