Flashsabre Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 My God his name is even longer!😀 Apparently a 6’4 centre with a terrific motor all over the ice. 18 points in 15 junior games in Sweden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kas23 Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 It seems all of our prospects are blowing up. One guy I haven’t heard much about is Isak Rosen. What’s the story here? Trouble acclimating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think the numbers or play is there yet, but the team seems to believe in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will show his skill playing against players his own age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashsabre Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Constantini is Coming on strong at ND. A lot of the prospects are off to really good starts which is nice with it looking like another long year in Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, this is considered a slow start for Wright, and I’ve seen it said that he is still excelling in areas of the game, the points just aren’t coming as often as you would expect. If his production stays a little down for the season, I’m curious if scouts would drop him at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, guess I'm just a little skeptical when Bloom has almost equaled his point total, in 14 games, as he had in 54 the last time he played. Looks promising for a 3rd though, definitely. With Wright, I'm almost *certain* his numbers are affected by the year off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 On another note, we have 17 picks in the next two drafts, up from the usual 14. Which amounts to basically two extra firsts and an extra second. I don't expect Adams to trade away any of the higher picks (like we saw Murray do) and I don't expect him to trade away close to the raw amount Botterill did, but I won't be surprised if we deal a couple mid-to-lower picks and don't think people need to freak out if we do, thinking he's trying to pull a "Murray speed up" or whatever. It's normal to use some as currency and I don't know that Adams is going to use *every* pick and make every selection considering the raw total of players in the system already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shall see. Fun exercise, but dangerous projecting prospect success so far out, as you know. Good thing is that majority of these prospects are showing continued positive development and excelling right now. Also, there are a fair number not included in your lineup (R2, Murray, Weissbach, Kisakov, Nadeau, Bloom, Costantini, Bryson, Novikov) who are doing well and could make a leap. In addition to that, the 3 upcoming 1st round picks, but also its 8 total picks in 1st+2nd round over the next 2 drafts. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
