Marchenko?

Daniil But is much faster in a straight line, more like Nichushkin, and he has some soft hands for powerplay assists. I guess he's a bit like Blake Wheeler.

Marchenko is remarkably agile in crowded spaces and has an elite shot, those are his most distinguishing characteristics and I don't see that in But. But looks ungainly in traffic.

I think you misunderstood my comment. By no means was I calling Smith a poor skater. He will require an adjustment of his style to continue playing the way he does at the NHL level.

I think Smith's off puck play will be a bigger problem. He is uninterested in the game until the puck is on his stick.

I think he'll score plenty but maybe be a guy who just gets passed around among bad teams.

Sawchyn is #37 on my full rankings. I could see him going anywhere from like 25-45 depending on if a team likes him enough.

I appreciate the work you put in.

One thing I'll quibble with - you're questioning whether Leo Carlsson will end up as a center and not questioning that for Will Smith. I think that's backwards.

I know it sounds weird for a guy who is currently not at center but Leo Carlsson has more natural center attributes than anyone in this draft, including Bedard and Fantilli.

While draws aside, Smith isn't doing traditional center things. I'm not saying he's not playing center well, I'm saying he isn't really playing center as it would be defined in a pro system. The Program might be doing development right but it's harder to evaluate for positional ability.

I appreciate the work you put in.

One thing I'll quibble with - you're questioning whether Leo Carlsson will end up as a center and not questioning that for Will Smith. I think that's backwards.

I know it sounds weird for a guy who is currently not at center but Leo Carlsson has more natural center attributes than anyone in this draft, including Bedard and Fantilli.

While draws aside, Smith isn't doing traditional center things. I'm not saying he's not playing center well, I'm saying he isn't really playing center as it would be defined in a pro system. The Program might be doing it right but it's harder to evaluate.

I actually thought about including that afterwards for Will Smith in the Questions category. However, I included it in Carlsson’s because I don’t think I’ve seen him play center. Does he have the tools to play center? I think so for sure. I have to question it if I haven’t personally seen it though. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m not sure if I remember him playing center at the U20s either. I believe he played on Bystedt’s wing if I’m remembering correctly.

Will Smith is playing with Leonard and Perreault who have also played center and would probably be great in that position at this level but Smith has the job. Smith is going to play center for BU for sure and ultimately I think will be a center in the NHL.

I don’t think Smith’s skating is bad at all. He can get up to a good speed. The way he plays the game makes him seem slow. He plays with a lot of patience but he doesn’t play with much motor.

When he moves his feet, he can skate for sure.

Sounds like how they describe Shane Wright to be honest.

Leo was Bystedt's winger at the U20s and has only been a winger in the SHL. But to me this is obviously just how the Swedes are breaking him in. They did the same with Elias Pettersson.

The program put Smith in between Perreault and Leonard but the program doesn't care about traditional positional roles. I'm not sure what it meant to them.

There is 36 picks in the second round...??

Mrb1p · Mar 27, 2023

I like Sawchyn, a lot, but the recent love hes been getting is a bit over the top, all starting, I think from EP that keeps talking about him.

Realistically, he is not a top 15 prospect.

Rounds 3 - 5 I found so tight to slot guys into spots. So much talent throughout the whole draft really exposes the depth of this field. Just my personal take on the draft- love it or hate it

No one at all from USHS?

I like Sawchyn, a lot, but the recent love hes been getting is a bit over the top, all starting, I think from EP that keeps talking about him.

Realistically, he is not a top 15 prospect.

I'm one of the folks who's really high on him, and I don't even follow EP (I assume this is a YouTube channel?)

Maybe its EP that reads this board a bit too much, then. We should get paid.

Regardless of who, why, when, my point stands. Too much raw skill on the table to have Sawchyn so high, imo.

Honestly I find it so hard to judge kids coming from high school hockey - I also don't watch or follow it much so I can't really slide them into a spot. I do like the things i've heard on Hunter Anderson and Shaugabay for sure - Shagabay would defintely crack my top 40-45 from what I am hearing. Crazy numbers
