Prospect Info: Danila Yurov RW/C, 24th Overall, 2022 NHL Draft

[Digitalbooya]

It is inarguable that Rossi took a gigantic step forward from the 2022-23 season to the 2023-24 season. I have no idea how many more steps he has in him, but it seems overly pessimistic to just cap him at what he was last year right now.

Sorry, I might not have stated what I meant clearly when talking about Rossi being capped physically and ability wise. I mean, I don’t think his “top end” abilities and physical traits will allow for him to be a legit top line player. He could be a 60 point guy on the 1st line or a 50 point guy on the 2nd or etc. I just think his abilities are capped beneath where others have him. He should be able to improve upon this year, but there are doubts as to how much improvement he can have.

If he gets any PP1 time, he basically is there last year. Feels a little harsh to write him off as coming close to hitting his ceiling as a rookie

Rossi would have needed Kaprizov to force him there IMO. Yurov strikes me as a guy who could put up 60+ points as a line driver without Kaprizov.

This is why I was saying all last year , if Yurov is what we think he is then that makes one of Ek or Rossi expendable.

If it’s keep Ek and move Rossi which I would be totally fine with then we need to put Rossi in every situation we can to showcase him and pump his stats. Hopefully then we can fleece some team out of something of value while packaging Rossi with a Gaudreau type dump.
