Default Who’s our next diamond in the rough?

A player that seemingly comes out of nowhere (Pospisil, Ferland, Klapka, Jooris, Kirkland) to make a big impact on our team? Usually a player way down our depth charts but suddenly takes a huge step.

Any inklings of who this next guy might be for us? The no namer that Iggy was mostly responsible for drafting for us?

I think Grushnikov, our forgotten defenseman, will step up and become a reliable defenseman for us, ala Derek Engelland.

Don’t know if this counts as a diamond in the rough but I really feel like Suniev will score eventually at the NHL level, 20-30 goal man

Ah yes the annual josh jooris award. The player who best exemplifies coming out if nowhere to steal a roster spot and contract.

I think tacos boy comes in and surprises at Center.

I know he was a high pick, but really hoping Sam Honzek has that sort of Blake Wheeler late bloomer trajectory and becomes a core piece for us instead of fizzling out

Andrew Basha will make the coaches second-guess sending him down in camp this fall. Book it.

Whoever plays for close to league minimum and throws 3+ body checks in his first game. He will be a sensation, until next season when someone else does it first. Rinse, repeat. The cycle gets paused if this phenom also scores a goal in the first month of the season. Then they get a 2 year window instead of just 1.

I’m also on the Basha train. He looked good last training camp as well. I won’t be surprised if he sees NHL action this year.

On defence either Kuz or Morin.

Forward, Hoskin or Stromgren.
