I went today the game this afternoon. I'm not a professional scout or anything like that but I can share some of my thoughts on the players.

Breen - Always on the right side of the puck in the defensive zone, adept at battling in front of the net, basically everything in the defensive zone he can do at an NHL level. The question is, can he transition to offence? I didn't get a chance to see this game but if he can make a good first pass and keep the puck in at the blue line he will be an nhl player. But I didn't see much of that part of his game so I don't know.

Brust - Hard to say what kind of goalie he is. There was one play where the Monter's forward was coming down the wing and shooting from the circle, and instead of turning his body to gloves the puck, he took his blocker and "punched" it out of the zone? never seen anything like that. There was a play where the monsters player came close to brust when he was handling the puck and brust knocked him over, I also saw brust facewash someone during a scrum. Interesting player.

Reinhart - Always the high forward, which I assume means he is always thinking defence. He has the wheels to play in the NHL, it's just a matter if he finds his hands I guess.

Horak - By far the best player on the heat. Always two steps ahead of his teammates and just makes decisions with the puck faster than everyone else. He had more chances than any other forward and he always looked dangerous. He's definitely an NHL player it will be interesting to see if he becomes a fourth liner or can put it together and be a top 2 line guy.

Kolanos - He is an opportunist. He doesn't really seem to set up plays or get involved, but he is always trying to put himself in the right place to knock in a lose puck.

Nemisz - Didn't see much of him tonight but it seems his job is to work the board and stand in front of the net and battle or look for tip ins. His skating is meh, first few steps are fairly choppy and his top speed is average. Not sure why he is not scoring.
