What do you see to award him of that?
I’ve watched quite a few games myself and wonder why he isn’t getting at least some top 64 talk. He can really skate. Great penalty killer. Can create on his own. I would call him a high IQ guy as he really seems to out think his opponents. Maybe I hope he does fly low in hopes St. Louis can pick him late. I see some 2nd 3rd line potential.

Well George already said he thinks he’s a top 64 player a while back and now he thinks he’s a riser so I’m just interested in his opinion on what’s so standout about him. He’s definitely an offense creator but I just don’t see much of a dynamic talent. He wouldn’t be the first Asian-North American left winger from the Niagara Ice Dogs to be a steal if so!

Just watching their team, which isn’t very good, he stood out to where I put him on my list of folks I like for the draft. Possibly a late round steal. I appreciate your list by the way thank you

born in Beijing will be the 2nd Chinese-born player ever to be drafted. Current ranked 81 by NHL central scouting. His coaches think he can be a 20 goal scorer. He currently leads his team in scoring. Only rated by 2 ranking services so far. Any insights on this kid?

He scored two goals in the last 5 minutes tonight to erase a 4-2 deficit, and then set up the OT winner.

He now leads the OHL with 18 points in 7 games - wonder if he gets a look for team Canada at the WJC if he keeps this up. He plays a perfect style for a bottom 6 energy guy, non-stop motor and relentless forechecker

At least give him the tryout and go from there. We can't have last years fiasco happen again.
