Beauchemin is pretty short. He was standing on the curb here because he joked he didn't want to look short
this was years ago after a skate at KHS.Player Discussion Olen Zellweger

Too late, we already concluded that Zellweger is as tall as Beauch, thus size won't limit him
Give us some height measurements of the people around Beauch, I'm not goot at telling height from the head-shoulder ratioBeauchemin is pretty short. He was standing on the curb here because he joked he didn't want to look short

I'm on the right I'm a little bit over 6'1 but he was standing on a ledge in the photo. He was probably between 5'10 and 5'11. He was moving people out of the blue paint with such ease lolToo late, we already concluded that Zellweger is as tall as Beauch, thus size won't limit him

Regardless... I wouldn't want to run into him.We have conflicting info even from people who have met him, I think it'll soon be safe to assume that Ducks players are either lizard people or shape shifting aliens

They should recall him towards the end of the season. Get his feet wet. He is going to be fowlers replacement in the future

Lost in the Bedard hype (rightfully so tbh).
Olen ends tied for 4th all time by points by a defenseman in the WJC.
and looks to be the 2nd highest PPG amongst those based on a quick look
That’s not as impressive of a list as I would have expected.

A lot of those were old ass records back when the tournament was like the Wild West. I’ll try and see what the list looks like for post 2000

For players born after 1980 (so tournaments played around 2000 till now) the top 5 is
Ryan Ellis- 25 points in 19 games
Olen Zellweger- 18 points in 16 games
Alex Pietrangelo- 15 points in 12 games
Topi Niemela- 15 points in 16 games
Olle Joulevi- 15 points in 18 games
Not a bad group of contemporaries
The next 5 would be
Rasmus Sandin
Erik Johnson
Ville Pokka
Stanislav Svozil
Alexander Romanov

A lot of the ''highest-scoring'' lists are underwhelming. Just for comparison, IIRC Etem and Steel led the WHL in some seasons or were damn close to doing so. Turned out a very small portion of top scorers go and have meaningful NHL careers... for whatever reason.
Ever since I got to this realization, I understood that some kind of an eye test determining what could actually translate to the big leagues is more important than just plain production. EliteProspects videos, for example, are very good at this.

It was only surprising because I believe the highest scoring skaters list in who history is fairly impressive,

Ryan Hofer going to Kamloops as well. Blazers are loading up big time.
Thanks mods! Sorry, I didn’t know where to post the topic. But what a huge trade. Is this normal? Like the price is crazy.
After WJC? This kid is all hyped up by the scouts. 11 pts in 7 games. Maybe this is how juniors work
but man that’s a hefty price. It almost reminds of the Watson trade in the NFL

They’re guaranteed to be in the Memorial Cup and will probably suck after, have to go for it now.Thanks mods! Sorry, I didn’t know where to post the topic. But what a huge trade. Is this normal? Like the price is crazy.

I just didn’t know juniors traded that crazily. That’s like 3 years worth of picks and players. It’s pretty remarkable

It is quite a bit even for junior but their firsts are worth so much less. Then again, a similar but much lesser situation to this is how Regina got Bedard in the first place.

They have at least one big piece to sell off this off season, in order to recoup some of their futures. Leafs recent 38th overall pick Fraser Minten, will be one of the top 19 year olds in the league next season. He'll command a return similar to the Ostapchuk trade this week
