Prospect Info: Hunter Haight C, 47th Overall, 2022 NHL Draft

[Jbcraig1883]

5 goals and 2 assists for 7 points in 11 games (-1) for the rookie. Currently third in scoring and the only person near him in points that has a better +/- is Milne. Been great on PK, has surprised me with some of his physical play, and might have the best wrister on the team (gets it off faster than Bankier). I think Heidt and Bankier have some competition. Haight is a righty, quicker laterally and maybe overall top speed, better dangling, and a better shot. Not as big as Bankier and not as good as vision as Heidt.

He still has some junior-esque plays that are getting ironed out but there has already been improvement in this area since the start of the season.

Haight always looked good, but his stats never really popped. Most top 9 NHL'ers scored at a high level in junior, or had a physical component to their game that he does not.
