Moore has had plenty of time to get the bounces.. at some point looking good and getting chances bit unable to best goalies IS the truth.. stop making excuses..Great speed...cannot score my goals and neither is he puking up elite assets as not using his linemates to multi-scores..I'm not a playmaker.. Profile of a bottom line flashy but ineffective scorer and just a checker..=a JAG..justcanither guy.not special so why get so excited about hom?

I guess tge NCAA site is the official stats to cite.
Still even just 2g+2a +3 is a goid game.

IMO, it's still way too early to tell. The range is still really wide.

If you watch Moore play he actually basically never has the puck
He’s at his best when he’s disruptive forcing turnovers and keeping plays alive for his teammates. I have some really genuine concerns about how a player like that translates to the NHL but there’s no way of knowing yet

That’s sounds like a bottom 6er, which is where a lot of us have had him pegged for a while now. Andrew Cogliano is the name that keeps popping up as comparisons. Maybe a bit disappointing for his draft position, but that’s a useful nhl player all the same.

I'm not sure how confident I'd be in putting him in a top 6 role. He is a bit of a chemistry killer. I can see him play a top 6 role like Ilya Mikheyev has played in the top 6. More of a 3rd line forward that you can swap with a true top 6 forward to balance out the lines.

He’s going to be a bit of a pest, and will have a pk role. Tweener 2nd-3rd line seems about it. If he’s on the 4th line in his prime, the Hawks likely will be sitting very pretty.

Since he really doesn't handle the puck that much he probably has an easier transition than say Frank Nazar.

Getting a quality middle-sixer out of a 19th overall pick wouldn't be disappointing. Now, had CHI traded up to the top-10 and selected him where they had him rated, that'd be a bit more disappointing. But we'll see how things shake out. Of the guys drafted 9-20 in 2023, none of them have really done much to suggest they'll be significantly better players than Moore in the NHL.

I wonder if they had Moore over Leonard too. That would have been a hilarious storyline to follow from 2023-2027.

Yea its a dig at how much the Hawks brass loved Moore that they mightve had him like top 5 and picked him over Leonard lol

I don't know if they had him top-5, but we know they had him top-10 because they desperately tried to trade into the top-10 to pick him. I didn't even really mean it as a dig, but I'm curious who they had rated higher. I assume Leonard but who knows.
To be fair honestly everyone on public lists had Moore like 8-12 and he was projected as a 2 way top 6 forward and comfortably replace Cooley at U of M. He jus hasn’t really developed which unfortunately does happen even with the best prospects sometimes

also doesn't mean that he can't figure it out at the nhl level, its unlikely his production takes a step up from college but things happen

Take this with a healthy dose of salt, but I heard from someone that Thompson isn’t going to be signing with the Hawks when his season ends. If that’s the case then he’s likely part of a package to get the team some forward help.

pretty sure Seravalli said this on a broadcast last week that Rinzel, Moore and Greene would sign and Thompson might not, he was also a pick from the old regime if that matters at all in his thought process, cant imagine the Hawks would have any issue giving him NHL games this year so its not opportunity
