F Michael Hage - Chicago Steel, USHL (2024, 21st, MTL)

Will he be there at 30 for New York? I haven't delved into the prospects that much, but from my limited viewing, he looks extremely appealing.

Probably not. Seems like he's in the 15-20 range in many mocks.

Not a chance.

Reading the prospect section of this site, one would think that centers are unicorns, yet there are over 100 players in the NHL playing center

I would be curious for you to do this exercise with the amount of Wingers and Defenseman there are in the league, and then tell me how many C's are also playing out of necessity.

And I should mention this is a rhetorical exercise and yes legit top 6 C's are unicorns in the NHL lol

 

[DougBodger]

Is he at Michigan this fall?

I think someone in the top 12 jumps on this guy.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Is he at Michigan this fall?

Yes

 

[Byron Bitz]

Anyone know what team he grew up cheering for?

Welcome to Montreal

 

[Bubbles]

Great story. Both parents are from Montreal, and he grew up a Habs fan.

Also, Hughes confirmed they moved up specifically for him.

 

[Breakers]

That Chicago steele - Wolverine pipeline is crazy strong.

Great story. Both parents are from Montreal, and he grew up a Habs fan.

Also, Hughes confirmed they moved up specifically for him.

It makes sense. He would have probably been gone by our original pick at 26.

Love this pick!

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

I had him #11 on my personal draft list. Solid choice for Montreal, and could be a potential 2C or even 1b center behind Suzuki.

 

[Ford Prefect]

I can see both the Hawks or Canadiens pick him with their 2nd first rounders. He fits both of their drafting styles

Good call

 

[Habs 4 Life]

Anyone know what team he grew up cheering for?

He was actually a Habs fan!

Well played.
