Austria’s best scorer at the U18’s and he isn’t even draft eligible until 2026. Can anyone give me a rundown of his game?

Started off the season in Austria's 2nd league, 1 goal and 1 assist in 3 games.
Gonna be interesting to see where he's gonna play in his draft year next season.

 

[JapanesePopstar]

Scored his second of the season on a 5 on 3 powerplay, nice slapshot.
Hightlights including goal to be found here: 2024-09-28-AHL-HKC_RBJ

 

[JapanesePopstar]

4 goals and 6 assists in 14 games, similar scoring pace as Zelenov last year.

 

[JapanesePopstar]

Recently played his first 2 games in the ICEHL, Austria's highest league.

AlpsHL is not a very good league at all, the level of competition is well below NAHL.

What? Lol, no way. You're talking about men against a junior league.

What? Lol, no way. You're talking about men against a junior league.

With all due respect, the Portuguese, Uzbekistani or the Norwegian 3rd division are also men's leagues. That sounds like a point you're making on the surface, but it doesn't hold water.

NAHL is more competitive, the level of play in NAHL is higher.

There's been a bunch of Latvians in both AlpsHL and NAHL. Daniels Murnieks, the brother of future NHLer Olivers Murnieks, is literally playing in AlpsHL right now and played in NAHL a year before. Look at his numbers.

There's plenty of other direct or indirect comparisons.

NAHL is more competitive, the level of play in NAHL is higher.

Being more competitive is not the same as "higher level of play". Two completely diffirent things.
Regarding Murnieks numbers, Paul Byron also had less goals in one QMJHL season than in one of his NHL seasons...

If Daniels Murnieks is not enough,

AlpsHL is a bad league. Actually, it's one of the worst leagues paying a liveable salary at the same time, which is why so many foreigners play there. Same as Oberliga in Germany.

It also means that it is an easy league for players. It's very cost efficient to play there.

Ok, thanks ! Since it's weaker than NAHL, can I expect Carson Briere to score 200 - 250 points this season for Sisak ? I mean, judging "by numbers" he should do it with ease since he had 89 pts in 55 games in his last NAHL year.

No problem. His point production in NAHL was 1.13 ppg. His point production in AlpsHL is 1.70 ppg, or an increase of 50%.

Let me know if you need me to do some more basic arithmetics for you.
