Prospect Info: (F) Oliver Moore - 2023 NHL Draft, 19th Overall

[Hattrick Kane]

Forwards are always rated higher than defensemen in the prospect pools, they put up more points, so it looks nice on the stat sheet.

Fact of the matter is, you want more depth at defense, because defense wins championships. The playoffs make the difference, and the last thing you want is a shoddy defense. We have unreal depth in the right spot, and guys who are already good defensively which helps tremendously when it’s time to take the next step.

The most frustrating thing for me is people everywhere dismissing Levshunov for Demidov, including posters on our boards. I’ve been trying to figure out why, and I like Demidov. But a 17 year old RD walks onto a college team and becomes their best player is unheard of. But if Lev with professional training dominates in Rockford next year, I have a feeling people will change their tone very quickly.

He's going back to college. Maybe he signs and plays at the end of the year depending on if Minnesota makes a long playoff run.

Not to be a tool, but he hasn’t even signed an ELC….

Nice article by Powers on Moore this season.

 

[Praetorian Caps]

The part that stood out to me is when he said “You’re not going to have your A-game every single night,” Moore said. “I think I’ve found a very good B-plus game. I pride myself on that." Love the perspective and belief in himself.

As a gopher fan, I absolutely love Moore and Rinzel. Rinzel is a stud. Amazing player.

As a gopher fan, I absolutely love Moore and Rinzel. Rinzel is a stud. Amazing player.

I watched the hilights of the game yesterday. Rinzel 1 + 1. I loved end of game when he went after opposition player who had crosschecked another Gopher into boards. Liked the emotion. Moore's o-game results trending up.

The stats indicate Moore on same production pace as last season.. I dunno...you want to see a progression...where is it?

You basically double what he has put up till now this sesson to equal HP ladtcsesdon and his stats for entire lsst season...You find hardly any change in his poibts per game.

We exoected a lot more given Hawkseuphoria "fell" to them and they got a stealpick..

Ratger he looks lije just anotherc3C bottom six candidate albeit with elite speed and a 2 way game.. but top six forward? So far that looks dubious.

Sure he could explode at a higher scoring clip in the 2nd half of this season..but till he shows he can up his scoring pace,I woukd not get thatcexvotrdforva mere bottoming vandidate.

I do notcsee drives the offebse you want fromavtop six forward and hevisvonly aboutv50%on draws...nothing exceptional to think hecwill beca "star" key player in the Show.
