Prospect Info: Owen Beck

[badfish]

Way Jeff Gorton was talking yesterday he's very high on Laval talent.

I noticed he didn't mention Beck's name, but I also got this impression.

 

[Ozmodiar]

Roy's predicament is a familiar story: elite hands and AHL level skating. It would have been much better for Roy for it to have been the other way around.

The other way around?
That’s Beck. Or it was. He’s working on it.

If you have the skating, it buys time to hone the other skills. It’s the kernel for shooting, checking and stick handling.

I noticed he didn't mention Beck's name, but I also got this impression.

I think it was unintentional.

1st overall in the Q draft, 119pts in 66 games at 18, game-winning assist of the WJC final... he's literally a nobody.

The Q is a crap league so 1OA is not a huge deal. He’s a very slow skater.

Simon Snake Boisvert such a idiot to call him a bad player and see him only as a 4C lol!

This guy have legit 2C // 3C potential at this point. His season with Laval so far show really really great promising. He is a two-way beast. Great offensive tools aswell. Great shot. Great IQ.

This guy is a very good hockey player and he will make Simon Snake Boisvert looking like a dumb shit! Lol

I think in Boisvert’s case it’s already a case of ‘mission accomplished’.

Boisvert has no need for Beck’s help for this, he’s accomplished that long before Beck was ever around.

 

[schwang26]

which still leaves us without a true #1 C after 30 years, how sad and pathetic.

He has been improving every year. He may not hit 100 points, but I can see 90. I’d say that’s #1 centre

 

[NotProkofievian]

He has been improving every year. He may not hit 100 points, but I can see 90. I’d say that’s #1 centre

Who? Beck?

 

[David Suzuki]

Simon Snake Boisvert such a idiot to call him a bad player and see him only as a 4C lol!

I am 99 percent sure Boisvert just hockey db scouts and that's about it

 

[Habs]

He has been improving every year. He may not hit 100 points, but I can see 90. I’d say that’s #1 centre

Bro, Beck isn't a 90pt player, that's Bedard/Celebrini hype levels.. Eichel.. lol, those C's you find with #1 picks.

 

[Sorinth]

Pretty sure the 90pt level is in reference to Suzuki not Beck.
1C - Suzuki
2C - Hage
3C - Beck

It's perfectly fine if everyone hits, but that's certainly a big question mark.

 

[schwang26]

Who? Beck?

lol! Suzuki

Bro, Beck isn't a 90pt player, that's Bedard/Celebrini hype levels.. Eichel.. lol, those C's you find with #1 picks.

He was complaining about Suzuki not being a number 1

 

[Habs]

lol! Suzuki


He was complaining about Suzuki not being a number 1

oh lol, makes more sense.

Snake Boisvert saying Beck is a 4th liner while gushing over prospects not even drafted yet. Beck was the most sought out player at the OHL deadline and killed it at the Mem cup.

 

[1909]

Beck will be a top 9 for sure. He’s got not only the skills, but the drive.

 

[Intangir]

Beck will be a top 9 for sure. He’s got not only the skills, but the drive.

Not only that, but he's been improving virtually every game out there for the Rocket. And that constant development curve isn't to be underestimated.

I've seen worse prospects as AHL rookies end up NHL top-6 centers with continuous development so who's to say Beck won't also show that type of progression?
