C Roman Kechter - Rogle BK J20, J20 (2022 Draft)

[Pavel Buchnevich]

One of the better German players for the upcoming draft. He's a two-way type of center. Good hockey sense. Enough offense for the junior game. Gives good effort defensively. He doesn't skate that great, he's not very big, and his offensive component is pretty average. Probably doesn't have the upside to be more than a late pick, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's picked. It appears like he captains most of the German junior teams he has played for, so he might have some good intangibles.

I was very impressed by him, solid hockey sense and a decent set of offensive tools. He reminds me a lot of Milos Roman (a fourth rounder to Calgary few years back) when I watch him. I hope to see him at the WJC this winter
