Handzus vibes ?

He caught my eye a lot today.

 

[L4br3cqu3]

Huge, 2-way hockey IQ and physicality. Could become a very serviceable NHLer at some point if he keeps improving.

 

[JabbaJabba]

It's still so funny how big he is but has a face of a two-year-old.

 

[bsu]

Maybe a little less offense Vermette type. With size like that always valuable to have those type of players especially in playoffs.

Nick name " Master Blaster ? " ( Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome refence ).

 

[JTeller97]

I always figured he was a brian boyle type

 

[shaner8989]

Real solid player. Nhl material

Reminds me of Handzus

 

[shaner8989]

Continues to dominate with another 2 point period with a beauty goal

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Flashing a bit more offense than I thought he would now that he's against peers rather than pro men huh?

I've always liked the Hanzal comparison, starting to look like a really great value pick, ideal bottom 6 C.

 

[Mats26]

6'6" center with some pop for the bottom lines. I feel the Handzus vibes as well.

Height and weight yes, but not snarl. Son of Sami plays with some snarl, which is most needed in LA.

Danault
Byfield
Helenius

Not too shabby

 

[Artorius Horus T]

First AHL / NA goal for the munster

He's looked good! Raw and getting used to the smaller ice, but him and Andre Lee on the same line is a LOT of beef to contend with.
