C Bradley Nadeau - University of Maine, NCAA (2023, 30th, CAR)

[WeThreeKings]

I'd still rank Suniev over him, am I the only one?

No, me too. Suniev has a few more pro-level tools than Nadeau. Nadeau has a better shot but I like Suniev's speed and size.

 

[Frk It]

I was kind of surprised he did not crack the top 32 on McKenzie's mid-season ranking.

 

[Our Lady Peace]

This weekend I was talking to some of the Alberni Valley Bulldogs players and they seem to think Nadeau is definitely better than Suniev

Believe Rimouski holds his CHL rights. Any chance he winds up playing junior if he is selected in the first or second round or is he determined to play college hockey for Maine with his brother Josh - similar to the Spink (Colgate) and Jones (Quinnipiac)?

If he was interested in rimouski wouldn't he be there now? It's not common for a player to commit only to go CHL at 18, usually it's a 16/17 year old wanting to play top competition , but once they are able to play NCAA there's usually not much point. Factor in that his brother will be going too and I would say there is almost zero chance he picks the Q now.

Figured as much. Was curious as to how close he is to being NHL-ready.

In terms of playing for Canada at the WJC, seems like Hockey Canada prefers players from the CHL.

1G, 3A this weekend.

 

[Bubbles]

Another 2G, 1A game, all on the PP.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

back to scoring goals and points?

 

[Bubbles]

4A tonight, all primaries to his brother Josh (who had 4 goals)

 

[Bubbles]

2G, 1A tonight in a 13-1 hammering of Merritt.

 

[Mallow]

Seven straight multi-point games for Nadeau. Wonder if he's done enough to get his draft stock up to sneak into the first round.

Either way, I'm really looking forward to watching him and his brother next year in Orono.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

2+3 game for Nadeau.

39 goals
60 assists
99 points
2.06 ppg

 

[Bubbles]

Nadeau with 2G, 3A tonight, up to 99 PTs on the season.

 

[Bubbles]

2G, 1A Sat. Hit the 40th goal mark and the 100 PT mark. The way he's going, he will probably break 50 goals. Should absolutely be in the lower 1st rounds in most draft lists.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

I wonder how many points he would have right now, if he didn't have 8 game cold streak,
scored 8 points sure but scored just 1 goal in 7 games.

102 points atm

 

[Artorius Horus T]

BTW.

His bro Josh, in his last 10 games; 14 goals and about 30 points..

 

[Bubbles]

1G, 5A tonight. Him and his bro Josh definitely have a "twin" thing going.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

bradley 34 points in his last 10 games -> 108 points
josh 35 points in his last 10 games -> 103 points

You got Newhook's & Jost's 16 years old year.

Still impressive

You got Newhook's & Jost's 16 years old year.

Still impressive

Jost: Games: 48 G: 42 A: 62 P:104 PPG: 2.17
Newhook: Games: 53 G: 38 A: 64 P:102 PPG: 1.92
Turris: Games:48 G: 60 A: 51 P: 111 PPG: 2.31

These are better comparables. These were the seasons in their draft eligible year. Johnson and Wood got into College a year early.

He's got an outside chance of catching the PPG of Turris, who was taken 3rd overall.

 

[wetcoast]

Yes. He'll be in college next year with his brother too, they're going in together.

Does one of them seem more likely to exceed at the NHL level on his own?

My feeling are that Bradley is the guy but curious what you think?

Definitely Bradly. Size matters,, and he's a lot bigger than his brother. Josh might be able to carve a good college/AHL career because he is more of a play driver than Bradly.
