Looking for info on players who made their NHL debut last season. Can anyone here tell me a bit about these guys like what role they played last season, what type of player they are and what their future outlook could be? Thanks!!
Paul Cotter
Ben Jones
Jake Lyschyshyn
Pael Dorofeyev
Jonas Rondbjerg
Zachary Hayes
Kaedan Korczak
Daniil Miromanov
Brayden Pachal
Cotter, Jones, Leschyshyn, Rondbjerg are going to be vying for the 13th/14th forward spot next camp. Cotter & Jones are your typical gritty 4th liners, while Leschyshyn and Rondbjerg made a good impression for their 2-way play since last camp.
Dorofeyev is a speedy 2-way winger and I wouldn't be surprised if he earned a spot in the top 9 eventually. Decent hands and a solid all around game.
I don't see Hayes being very high on the depth chart next season.
Korczak showed a lot of promise in his D+1 & D+2 years, but has struggled a bit offensively in Henderson and took a step back last year.
Miromanov is a smooth skating offensive Dman that played a bit timid in most of his call ups to the NHL. Very high on him.
Pachal might be a good waiver pickup for another team in need of a #8.
