Pardon the cliche, but Matvei Gridin looks like a completely different player than he did a year ago.

That’s said about a lot of players at NHL training camps, but it’s especially true of the 19-year-old. He’s bigger and stronger, yes, but a year spent putting up big points in the QMJHL seems to have catapulted his game to a new level.


Through two days of Calgary Flames prospects camp, he might just be the standout.


“Just his habits are so much better,” said Calgary Wranglers head coach Brett Sutter, who is overseeing the Flames’ prospects camp this week.




“Stopping, starting, doing all those pro-style details, they’ve been incredible. He had a good day of (fitness) testing, he’s in shape, he looks good.”
