RD Seamus Casey (2022, 46th, NJD)

This is accurate. Also what he measured in at for the WJC.

I stand corrected as elite prospects has him at 5'9" 161lbs and that appears to be out of date.

I also stand by my comment about calling him a franchise Dman is hyperbole at this point.

Highlight reel goal to tie it up

 

[Lavar Ball]

What a goal

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

Sheeeeeesh, what a finish man

 

[Hisch13r]

He is so f***ing good

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Jesus Christ what a goal.

I knew there was a reason I had him in the top 5.

What a game so far. Kid has legitimate superstar potential.

Reminds me a ton of Fox. That's a super tall task to match though

He's like a Fox / Makar hybrid

The evasion and deception at the blue line is definitely Makar-lite

I’m glad Casey is getting some love. He’s been great all year. NJD are absolutely stacked when it comes to puck moving defense prospects in Nemec, Hughes, and Casey.

I'm expecting a big sophomore jump next season, he should be running the PP and getting more icetime overall with Hughes leaving. The size issues are a concern at the NHL level. I don't know if I'd say he is an Adam Fox caliber player, but I could see him being something similar to what Sami Vatanen was when he was with the Ducks.

The Devils are going to be disgustingly good.

This year has been good so far. Casey won't be rushed to the NHL but 2 to 3 seasons from now I expect he will be in our lineup.

Looked like Dahlin against Quinnipiac. Silky

His game last night looked to be at a higher level than he had shown before. Presumably a small preview of what he will offer next season. Really impressive.

He was far and away the best player on the ice last night in a game that featured tons of talent.

I don't think he made a single mistake the whole game while being a human highlight reel. Every time he stepped on the ice it felt like something was going to happen,.

Definitely the best game I’ve seen him play this season in a sample size of about ten? He looked like he reached another level last night. He should be the guy on the Michigan blueline next season.

Kid's a gamer.

I also wonder how much he wanted to show up Rand Pecknold for never playing him at the WJC. That was my first thought after his goal lol.

 

[BavelPure]

The way he skates and zips around the zone reminds me of how Jack Hughes and Bratt get going in the o-zone. The offensive potential in the Devils D between Hamilton, L. Hughes, Nemec & now Casey is pretty insane.

 

[Hisch13r]

5 pts so far tonight. Goal and 4 assists. He's really good folks
