His defence has not improved this year, at least not yet. Even if he wins the Hobey Baker by playing one side of the ice, it still won't translate to the pros until he makes significant strides, including learning how to stride while skating backwards.
More elusive but less fast and less strong than Sean Farrell. I don't know how much success he would have as a winger where he can't build up as much steam by starting deep in his zone versus more stops and starts on wing. Also he will have a hard time winning board battles and net front battles. Yet, not fast enough to play C.But can you imagine that elusiveness on the wing.
The Montreal Canadiens are proud to select Adam Jiricek
He’s too small don’t you know? We certainly don’t have a smaller player on the habs who gave star goal scorer vibes while in college, wonder what happened
When he talks in front of the cameras he looks like a regular kid, but yeah the vibes are there.
