C Curtis Hall - Yale Univ., NCAA (2018, 119th, BOS)

[Frk It]

Big kid (6'2". 190-200 lbs). Was a PPG at the Hlinka, and is at right about a PPG in the USHL (17 pts in 18 GP). He is committed to play college hockey at Yale University.

Craig Button had him at #33 in his most recent ranking.

Going to play for team USA at the World Junior A Challenge, Dec 10-16.

Phantoms’ Hall gets the call for Team USA

Finished the season with 31 points in 55 games. He was one of few guys on the american Hlinka team that I liked. What's the reason he hasn't produced more? Lacking skill, or hockey IQ? Or he's just one of those guys who needs some time to develop? How would you guys project him going forward? What's his upside?

At the halfway point I remember he was a PPG guy. Button had him ranked in the 30's. Not sure what happened, it seems like his USHL team just stopped scoring goals or something?

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

27 points in 28 games in his second season and wasn't bad at the WJC. Developing well. You'd figure that he spends one more year in college hockey, and then the Bruins sign him. Although, a lot of these Ivy League kids want to stay four years, but if you're the Bruins, you probably don't want him getting to free agency.

I've really liked what I've seen of him, I hadn't heard of him (like I didn't even know what team he was on) but when I was watching one of Yale's games I was like woah, I like that kid, who is he

 

[William H Bonney]

I'd be pretty surprised if he doesn't carve out a decent NHL career in a bottom six role. Big guy, skates well, and mucks it up.

Kind of reminds me of Nick Ritchie a bit, fits the bruins style very well
