Berard is the same height as Gallagher and Marchand, but 15 pounds lighter. Wouldn't be the worst thing if he cooks in Providence this year and next as he builds up.

Ryder Korzack looks like hes off to a good start to his season. Anyone watch any Moose Jaw games this season?

Korczak to me is the steal of this draft. I really like the way he plays and he's been playing well. I saw his game on the weekend and even aside from his goal, he was making things happen. Very happy with his performance so far.

Is Brayden Point style accurate?

You always have to be careful when comparing players because style and upside often get mixed up in discussions. But yeah, he models his game after Brayden Point.

For the last few years he's been working out with some NHLers which has helped him immensely (his words). Jordan Eberle and Josh Morrissey most notably.

Rempe was scoreless last night. After his 2 goal, 7 shot opener, he has 5 games with 0 points, and is -4 with 10 SOG.
 
Leevi Aaltonen had a goal the other day. He has 1+1 in 11 games mainly on the fourth line. He has also been a scratch a few times.

Ragnarsson plays on one of the top two pairs for Almtuna and has a line of 0-6-6 in 8 games. Good for him. Hopefully he carves out a nice career for himself in Europe.

Jaroslav Chmelař has a line of 3-3-6 in 13 games in the Finnish U20 series. Honestly, that's really disappointing so far. It's good for T-10th in scoring on the team, and on per-game basis he's even lower. NJ has a kid they just drafted in the third round and he has 15 points in 13 games. There are also a couple other guys on the team that will likely be drafted. This isn't to say Chmelař should be written off as he's still a young 18, but you'd really like to see him pick it up a bit. He gets good ice time and just hasn't produced yet. For the record--I have NOT seen him play as I have yet to find streams for Finnish U20 games so I'm strictly stat surfing with him.

Similarly, I haven't seen a Swedish U20 game for Tärnström, but he has 16 points in 12 games. Only 7 in his last 8. I say "only" as given his draft pedigree and the fact that he's 19, you'd really like to see him tearing it up like he did to start. He's now third on his team in scoring behind a couple undrafted guys. For comparison, Henriksson put up 41 in 27 when he was 18 playing in the same league.

Väisänen has 3 assists in 13 games for TPS. He looks okay. Kind of a non-factor IMO, but he doesn't look overmatched. He was just recently sent down and played in the Finnish U20 (where Chmelař is) and had 2 assists in his first game.

Lindbom is the backup to another young goaltender for Kristianstads.

I guess none of this is too surprising, though maybe Tarnstrom is a bit disappointing.

I think we pretty much figured that Aaltonen was going to be a long shot who might make it as a bottom-6 speed guy, if anything, but it looks like the offense hasn't kept up there. He just hasn't been able to transition his offense into Liiga to any real degree.

I thought Ragnarsson had third pairing upside and possibility of a PK role when he was drafted. I liked his game and really wanted to see him make it (partially so I could get Ragnarsson on a jersey...great hockey name).

Yeah. I'll add that for Vaisanen it was a really good sign for him that he was able to hang in Liiga at 18. Hopefully he produces in the U20 league.

I didn't mention Henriksson, who is showing some life with 1-2-3 in 7 SHL games, or Edstrom who is his dependable self, since we talk about them both a good bit.

Quick correction: Lindbom plays for Kristianstad

Chmelař, Ragnarsson and Tärnström have been underwhelming so far. For Ragnarsson that's nothing new. He's a non-prospect IMO and he won't be signed. Same with Lindbom. The other 2 still have some years to go.

Väisänen was sent down in a week where TPS' Liiga team didn't have any games so it's interesting to see if he's back up. They play again tonight for the first time since last week Friday (When Väisänen was on their 3rd line).

Debating this as well. It’s just tough to justify because don’t really care about the team just a player on a few.

please change my mind so I feel better pulling the trigger
