RW Jack Quinn - Ottawa 67’s, OHL (2020, 8th, BUF)

[RememberTheName]

Easy.

He's very old for the draft class, and played on such a stacked team. He was almost old enough to be drafted last year. Not claiming to be an expert though, I am sure I am wrong more often than I am right about prospects.

Him being old is really quite unfortunate for him, as it does slightly take away from his play, but I really don’t think it has that big of an impact, but I think that’s more of a personal preference for me that I don’t think age has really any impact unless your an overager.

In terms of being on a stacked team, yea, it definitely helps a little that the team is so good, but it’s not like he spends all of his time with Rossi. They only spent time on the powerplay together, and even if you take away his powerplay goals, Quinn led the entire CHL in 5v5 goals, which was playing without Rossi. He definitely drove his own play imo. In my post above this I think I may have detailed this a little more

He is a late birthday yeah but he is a very late bloomer physically. Started the 16 year old year at 5'8 and started this past season at 5'11 he is 6'1 now. He had 39 goals in his last 41 games and was the 67's best player in the second half. The reason the team was so stacked is because of him and Rossi they are by far the two best players on the team. Honestly if you are going to use the linemate excuse to prop the player up Rossi had way better linemates.

I'm almost positive Rossi and Quinn were on the same line at 5v5. I only got to see 2 of their games live but they were on the same line during both games.

They almost never played together 5 on 5. They did play on the powerplay but Rossi only had a primary assist on 8 of Quinn's goals.

They weren’t.

 

[NewEraGM]

Even if you compare him to draft + 1 players, he still looks good. I think he goes to habs if the top 8 are gone

Nope and its not a hard thing to look up either.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

I stand corrected. Wasn’t trying to be hostile or anything that’s just what I thought from the 2 games I attended.

 

[le_sean]

I never understand the team quality argument against him. It's not like he jumped from 12 goals to 25 where you can say "oh with a little more opportunity on a good team, he showed some production". He went from 12 goals to 52, that is absurd. His main linemate all season was a 20 year old who had previous seasons of 28 and 40 points. Regardless of who his linemates were, the puck still went in the net and it went in the net at a ridiculous rate.

The question on how he scores goals at the next level is an interesting one, I will admit. I had never thought of it. Sometimes you just see a guy pot 50 and you just think that he finds a way to make it happen.

He does it in all sorts of ways, a lot of which are transferable to the NHL, he’s not just dipsy doodling toe dragging guys that wouldn’t work in the NHL, He’s very smart and instinctive around the Net front, scored high tips/redirects as well as having a ridiculous release practically on Holtz’s level. There’s deception on it, a very good trait to have when turning pro

Quinn keeps sliding in recent mock drafts. He is turning into one of the most underrated players in this draft.

I keep seeing him top 12.

 

[Whileee]

I have a feeling his "floor" might be #11 with Nashville, and he could go in the top 10.

Quinn is dope. He reminds me of Monahan when he was with the 67's. Looks very similar on the ice.

 

[Dion TheFluff]

This guy hit the nail on the head with most of his 1st round draft predictions last year not getting one wrong until well into the teens IIRC (and even after that he predicted most of them correctly)

Would certainly shake up the top end of the draft if this were to happen.

Looking at some of his tweets it looks like he called some on draft day, which isn't uncommon. Was he saying stuff this far out?

I can't remember TBH. Will be interesting to see if this comes to fruition though.

Wouldn't be all that surprising if Ottawa was interested considering that he is right in their backyard and they could use more depth on the right side.

 

[truthbluth]

If Quinn is there at 8, and Rossi isn’t, I’m confident the Sabres will draft him.

 

[Dominance]

Told y’all he would be picked before Rossi. A quick strike sniper like Quinn will be scary with Eichel.

 

[GM Armchair]

Funny how This kid gets all this hate and all these haters know nothing about him but he was on the same team as Rossi hahaha

 

[Snippit]

Don’t want to overreact from one game, but...

This draft is nuts

I wouldn’t completely discount the possibility he gets drafted before Rossi. He’s turning the question of pro upside into a real debate there.

Good work

Or, apparently, even if Rossi is.
