Didn't know where to put this, but since he COULD be a Flames prospect one day, I couldn't think of a better place
This kid has pretty amazing hands for an 11-year old. His stickhandling is pretty damn good. He'll be eligible for CHL drafting in five years. Considering he is developing in a system that is far removed from the North American system, it's pretty cool to see.

Pretty cool, but man is he playing against a bunch of pylons.

It should hopefully come with time, but he's gotta keep his head up with those moves. If those other kids had a bit of defensive sense, they could knock him into next Tuesday.
Kid's got mad skills though.

His goals don't impress me, there a tons of videos out there of kids dangling through their peers. But his passing and ability to setup plays isn't something you see everyday from a kid that young. Hopefully he keeps developing, it'd be nice to see a star player get drafted to the NHL from a non-traditional country

Kids got skills. Probably need to move to get the most out of his development but would definitely be cool to see more players from non traditional countries.

Impressive - his short bursts are incredible. Off faceoffs its as if he tells his center to push it as far forward as possible and before the D man has taken a step he has the puck and is by them!
He is 11 though - lots can happen in the next 5 years before he goes to junior. I know a handful of guys who were very talented (not to this extent) and either lost interest or had more interest in partying before they hit junior.
