Generally Matt, sometimes Matthew, rarely Matty, but Matty if ever Pierre McGuire is involved in calling his games 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me you can’t hear the below post-game: ”yeah *sniff* ya know *sniff* Matty came out really strong for it being his first game *sniff* ya know *sniff* but *sniff* yeah *sniff* I was really impressed with it being his first game and all *sniff* ya know?” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted June 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Until the list is final it is subject to change and I have at least 3 scouting guides to go but right now Beniers is #1 on my list..

SwampD Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 He just doesn't look like someone who should go 1st overall. Even in this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted June 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 I've watched quite a few prospects over the years but I really love Beniers tenacity. Also his shot is underrated but it needs improvement. The one thing I'll add is that he comes with a great pedigree of working hard. Constantly elevating as he goes up each level.

This is absolutely true. His “compete” is off the charts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted June 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Just for a random comparable, kakko was around 31-33 Lefrienere was 48-52 I've found that the NCAA, Liiga, and SHL nhle numbers are fairly good predictors while the CHL numbers have more variance. My guess is that the first 3 leagues tend to play a more professional style and sometimes the chl requires a bit of adjustment (especially the Q, O and W are better) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashsabre Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 I worry about upside. If he tops out as Nazem Kadri then that is disappointing for a top pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be his absolute sub-basement floor. A 35-40 point winger who can play center in a pinch is what Hetch basically was and Beniers projects better than that.

If you think he will be better then Hecht You're setting yourself up for failure. In my opinion hecht was the most underated player in nhl and was great.
