A LW from the same town as Peter Forsberg? That's all I need to know.

Excerpts from the HP Black Book where he was #34
Hockey sense: 6
Compete: 6
Skill: 7
Skating 6:

Comments:
- Very high end skills but questions about how smart he is
- Played a smarter more pro game when he moved up
- Good potential but extremely raw
- Remarkable growth in his game through the season
- Needs to improve skating

seems like the biggest question is that scouts think he may be a little dim. Which is kinda funny

Impossible of course to make judgements on draft days, but there looks to be every reason to believe that the Flames draft work continues to be strong. I love that emphasis on work ethic and skill level.

Stankoven is only 5'8". Probably why he was passed on and dropped how he did.

McKenzie had him at 41.

Flames take him at 45.

Sounds good to me.

How can your 3rd best comparable be Arron Asham, with four and five being Roberts and Iggy?

Pick a lane, computer.

I know I'm a weirdo, but I might be more excited about this pick than Coronado.

Good skills, lack IQ

Hmmm, sound familiar?

Fully expecting him to be a Roberts/Iginla hybrid now, anything less is unacceptable

Would prefer to pick some centers but this seems like an ok pick.

Lots of talent still left on the board here though, I imagine someone will be calling this a Hunter Smith over Brayden Point situation in 5 years, though I’m not sure who Point is in this draft.

He seems to be good for only 525 goals, 1200 points. Disappoint.
