RD Jamie Drysdale (2020, 6th, ANA)

Ya, he looks like Toller Cranston out there.

I am just heartbroken we aren't seeing Guhle tonight instead

 

[gilfaizon]

Hopefully not coming in with Carlyle at HC will keep some of the offensive instincts intact. Fowler became a victim of that after a very successful rookie year

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Kaiden Guhle was more productive at the WJC with less ice time and no PP opportunities.

Very cool Robert.

Good for him, love seeing first goals in first games. Amazing!!

So smooth out there. Gap control like a supermodel.

Ok, so which is it?

This is the one guy besides Laffy that made me sit up when I watched him play. I thought that OTT should've taken him, especially since Chabot is LH. Sanderson will probably be fine , too, but if Drysdale can take the physicality of the league he'l be something special.

[KaseMeOutside]

Nothing else to say other than a very successful debut, he shouldn't set foot in the junior hockey again he's earned another game that's for sure.

 

[bsu]

Miro Heiskanen vibes for me. I hope he develops into a player like that he has that potential.

 

[PuckProspects]

Honestly had one of the best debuts I've ever seen from a defenseman. He was the best player on the ice. His skating and smarts are elite translates so well to the NHL.

 

[crowi]

What a debut. Watching Ducks is usually very painful, but that was something else.

 

[57special]

You know he is going to get targeted on the forecheck, like all rookie Dmen. Let's see how he, and the team, deals with it.

I knew it, not when i created this thread but after i started watching him in the OHL
i knew it that this kid was something special and i was right. WHAT-A-DEBUT

 

[lawrence]

i knew it that this kid was something special and i was right.

a lot of fans knew he was going to be special, what is this Georgeleafer lol! dude go back to sleep.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

His edge work is just magical....skating porn really.

I was just saying, what's your problem??? absolutely many saw that, and your point is?
Why do people gotta find negative shit from everything i post. Un-F-real. Can't enjoy an awesome prospect???
- getting old, yeah i get it, you don't like me, just go away before i report you from slander or something

I’ll give you props you were def the driver of the drysdale hype train even after ducks drafted him and the rest of the league forgot he existed

Thanks.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all if he stepped into the league and didn’t have much issue.

The kid looked pro ready after the World Juniors.

Nostradamus

 

[405Entrance]

Was kinda pissed the ducks called him up because I wanted him to avoid Eakins ruining his development. Needless to say I’m dead wrong. He looked so mature out there

And to think he is 18 supposed to be playing in the ohl

 

[Mr Rogers]

I don't think Anaheim has ever had a defensive prospect of his calibre. Kid is just really, really smart out there, and can skate like the wind.

[Son of Petter]

Sanderson before Drysdale will age very poorly.

I'm not even sure young Fowler is close to Drysdale at this point.
