RW Liam Greentree - Windsor Spitfires, OHL (2024, 26th, LA)

[stinger94]

That team has some insane size if those numbers are close to correct. Holy crap.

Yeah Windsor is a big boy team this year for sure. Huge size up front.

Having a good laugh looking at some of these takes from last year. Makes me wonder if commenters actually watch his games (he terrorized my team many times last year ). I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t become a perennial 50+ point guy in the NHL.

Greentree has been doubted at every stage and continues to prove people wrong.

With his hockey-sense/skill/size combo, I wouldn't have batted an eye if he was drafted after Luchanko. (I'm also not one of those who ever thought taking him at 13 was a reach). But I also think many (not all) of players taken between Lunchanko and Greentree were also deserving of being drafted where they were. LA did very well.

Never made sense to me why he was ranked so low after a 90 point dy season on the worst team arguably in the OHL

Cannot wait for him to make the World Junior roster for Canada and hopefully tear it up.

He won’t tear it up with the best Canada has to offer, doubt he even makes the roster.

Hage or Greentree+George ?

Really depends on if George becomes anything of note. Hage versus Greentree is pretty even although Hage has a bit better certainty of becoming an NHLer IMHO.

27 points in 12 games so far this season and not a peep about him on here in over a week?

Leading up to the draft, I got a ton of shit on these boards for saying I liked him over Sennecke - doesn’t look so crazy now, does it?

Lots of gloating from the armchair scouts when Sennecke went 3rd lmao. I stand by what I said. Greentree is a f***in beast, just dominant. He’s driving the offense for the entire team.

Don't think there's a single GM in this league that would trade Sennecke for Greentree right now, regardless his superior point totals, so gloating about that is laughable.

And I'm someone who likes Greentree and would have had no problem taking him in the middle of the 1st.

Oh I guarantee there are some. Sennecke was one of the most polarizing prospects in a long time. Seems like scouts either thought he had 1st line to franchise player type upside, or a middle-six ceiling. I was and am in the latter camp lmao.

And I’m not gloating, just pointing out how loudmouth armchair scouts on here often look dumb really fast. People saying Greentree was the worst skater they’ve ever seen, calling him a bust, saying they wouldn’t take him in the 5th round, etc. Some crazy shit was posted on here lol.
