F Michael Misa - Saginaw Spirit, OHL (2025 Draft)

[Artorius Horus T]

Such a steady, ready, consistent production through out the season.
40 points in 30 games. Just 6 games this season, where he has not recorded at least 1 point.

crazy good 15 year old season.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Scored his 40th and 41st points of the season, with 2 primary apples.

 

[Mathieukferland]

Hope he gets a chance as 13th forward next year at WJC; just by highlights he looks off Bédard/generational prospect level, but plays an explosive direct north/south game and could be useful as a spark plug lower in the line up

 

[Artorius Horus T]

scored another goal

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Shane Wright is listed 6 foot 1

Sure Wright looks taller what Misa but 5 foot 10 and 6 foot 1 guys should have more difference in height.
I think Misa is 6 feet tall, or... Wright is 6 feet tall.

Sure Wright looks taller what Misa but 5 foot 10 and 6 foot 1 guys should have more difference in height.
I think Misa is 6 feet tall, or... Wright is 6 feet tall.

Can look about 5ft 11.5 here

 

[Artorius Horus T]

88 point pace.....

no idea what's the most points scored by an 15 year old but you'd think if he would score 88 points
that would go pretty high on that list.


Its never easy to win your teams scoring title, let alone do it as an 15 year old.

In the OHL he has a 13 point lead in the rookie scoring race
In the CHL he is 2nd in rookie scoring, 9 points behind Suzdalev,
although Alexander has 7 games more played

Below is the top 15-year old CHL seasons since 1995-96 for context. I included the 2020-21 WHL COVID crop too.

Tavares has the CHL record with 77. If Misa keeps up his current pace, he will surpass Tavares' point totals from his 15-year old season. Historical numbers are often difficult to compare due to variations in league and team strength, scoring levels, etc., but a very impressive season for Misa already nonetheless.

You should Include Veleno and Bedard to this.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

You should Include Veleno and Bedard to this.

why should he? for example Bedard played just 15 games. doesnt qualify. cannot make a comparison

 

[Mercedes Benn]

why should he? for example Bedard played just 15 games. doesnt qualify. cannot make a comparison.

But he was 5 games off of 20 games and 2 points away from 30 points.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

why should he? for example Bedard played just 15 games. doesnt qualify. cannot make a comparison

Pretty easy to - just looking at what Bedard has done up to this point I think it’s quite easy to extrapolate the data and make an educated assumption on how he would have produced as a 15 year old in a normal WHL season.

 

[ponder]

He says he models his game off of Marner, and I can see that. Exceptionally high IQ/creative, very elusive with the puck, very good skater with great edges, plays with a tonne of pace, can both make plays and score goals. He's well ahead of same age Marner though - bigger/stronger, much better shot (legit sniper, hard/accurate/quick release), makes better decisions with the puck, better at finding soft spots without the puck, just overall well ahead of D-2 Marner. Hell, I think D-2 Misa is better than D-1 Marner too. Pretty nuts how well rounded his game is already, at 15.

I also agree that he looks 6' on the ice, he doesn't at all look undersized out there. FWIW, he's now listed as 5'11", not 5'10" (Ontario Hockey League – Official Site of the Ontario Hockey League), and I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's grown another inch since that 5'11" measurement, kids can grow pretty quickly at 15.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Another game, another primary apple, nice back hand pass.
5 points shy of 50.

 

[Peachkings1922]

Well Saginaw will be all in next year and the only forward they lose is Hill OA. His game is consistent, no long slumps. He plays hard every night. He should baring injuries break the 77 pt mark. He could grow another couple of inches by next season and 10lbs. Curious to see, JMO 6'1 175 by opening game and over 100pts for 23-24. I'm sure Drinkill will have plenty of picks from the Mintyukov trade to get a bonafide F to play with Misa.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Point number 50.

his pace been up and down a bit recently
but its still about 90 points,, which is completely nuts.

 

[montreal]

injury at the 4:13 mark

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Isn’t playing today either.

Dirty play.

 

[montreal]

Dirty play.

heard he was seen after the game walking on crutches so I assume he will miss some time

 

[Deleted member 339941]

 

[Beukeboom]

Any update on his knee?

 

[wetcoast]

Hope he gets a chance as 13th forward next year at WJC; just by highlights he looks off Bédard/generational prospect level, but plays an explosive direct north/south game and could be useful as a spark plug lower in the line up

He probably won't as the tournament is for 19 year olds for the most part and heck even a guy like Savoie didn't play on this year's team, partly due to injury but Misa will still only be 16 next year and Canada is stacked for forwards as per usual.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Any update on his knee?

Radio silence which probably Isn’t a good thing.

 

[wetcoast]

Wow turns out that McCue only got 2 minutes for kneeing there.
