He looks good but wow he is skinny. Once he adds a little more size he is gonna be a real force at this level and considering how good he already looks that's impressive. Already looks pretty comfortable out there
 
Nice debut for Kotka, picked up an assist and looked very comfortable out there.

I don't think he needs to add size. Strength, yes.

Yeah his size is fine, he doesnt look small or out of place. Strength is a different story. Hes good enough to stay up. But who knows, doesnt have much to play with in Montreal. He wont light the world on fire this year. Heck, might not even next year. But this kid is proving that he was the 3rd overall pick for a reason.
 
I liked his game. Very impressed with his poise, he looked jittery at first but he settled in quickly. That play where he held the puck RIGHT at the blueline was crazy good. He’s got ice in his veins.

His skating has improved a ton compared to the last season, very impressed by him. The Habs struck gold by picking him, he would be draft eligible in the next year if he was a couple of months younger.
 
I really need to dig those posts I made before the draft where I did not understand why people said he was less ready for the NHL than the other top ranked forwards. Guy just looked like a stud in the videos avalaible and really looked like an NHL players. I think too often people only repeat what they’ve read about a guy.

Fix'd for you. There are many experts on these boards who've never seen these kids play.
