Right. Just a crazy name.

Following in his father and brothers footsteps at Minnesota-Duluth

I think this guy is good, but it would help if he could grow a few inches. He skates well and has good offensive ability, but probably not for 5’8, so 5’10/5’11, he could very well be like a second or third round pick. 5’8, he’ll be a mid/late round pick.

 

[William H Bonney]

He grew. He's now 5'10 and 170. That's 2" and 24 pounds from the start of his U17 to U18 as seasons.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

That's huge for him. That'll help him get drafted a lot earlier. He's pretty good. It's the height that was holding him back.

He could be Perreault-lite in how his stock elevates this upcoming season.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Love his playmaking ability. Nearly as good as Hagens with how he passes the puck. He's second on the team in assists and has missed 10 games.

I think he doesn't skate too bad and now that he's 5'10 he has a better chance to reach his potential.

He's a perimeter one-way playmaking winger with average speed and he's only 5'10. I think there are limits to how high he should be picked, but I would endorse third round with no qualms.

Has 10+28=38 points in 31 games.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Now listed at 5’11. Was 5’8 when he entered the NTDP. Great playmaker, good skating and sense. I think there’s a chance for second round. If not, should be third round.

He might also slip a little because he didn’t have the best WJC18. Getting paired on a line with Eiserman will do that to players.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Was 65 on Bob's list. I think there's a chance for second round. If not, probably third.

2nd round would be high for Plante in my opinion. He's still undersized and lacks explosion / dynamic ability. I don't see upside much higher than a 50 point middle sixer. He doesn't have a high floor either to push him up lists; real chance he's a career AHLer. He's skilled enough to get drafted though and like most 2nd gen players he has good sense / understanding of the game which I like about him. We'll see how things progress for him, but I'm not too excited about a skill player going to UMD either and given his ties there, things would have to go disastrously wrong for him to consider the portal.

Welcome to Detroit

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

I was right. Second round. He had an unfortunate WJC18 because he was on a line with a black hole, but if he had different linemates at that tournament, his stock would’ve been higher in the media and fans consensus. I suspect Detroit saw that.
