6:13 might be the funniest quote I have ever heard but it’s very true. I still like his confidence with the puck but you make some valid points about his play with out the puck. Fantastic video once again can’t wait for Freij!
From ''The art of scouting'', Craig Button talking about top end prospect defensive play. Craig Button inherited his belief that defensive play can be taught from his father, NHL Central Scouting founder Jack Button. He cites Mike Bossy as an example of a player who proves it. “When Mike Bossy was going into the Draft, people were saying, ‘He can’t check and he can’t do this.’ It came down to the New York Islanders’ pick, and Bill Torrey came over to my dad and asked, ‘What do you think about Mike Bossy?’ Dad said, ‘He’s an unbelievable player. I know his family well and he played on a junior team that was not very good. He has an unbelievable skill set and you have nothing to worry about!’ So Bill went back to Al Arbour and said, ‘We have a choice here, Al. We have a guy who could score 50 goals in the NHL. Now, he doesn’t check very well and doesn’t play defence at this time. We have this other guy who doesn’t have the high offensive skills, but he works really hard and has pretty good defensive awareness.’ Al said, ‘You give me the 50-goal scorer and I will teach him how to play defence.’ And the rest is history.”
It will be post on ToutSurLeHockey.Com I aim to release it during the week of june 17th - June 21th. I'm currently working on it (and the next videos I want to release) night and day (when possible). I'll probably make a quick CZcams video to announce it.
I get what you're saying, but I think their case are vastly different. So are the players. A guy in this year draft has had very similar statistic to Yurov in the last 2 years in Russia ; Igor Chernyshov.

Sorry if I missed it somewhere but when can we expect your 2024 draft rankings to be published on your website?

Nice can’t wait, thank you 😊
I feel like Connelly is this years Danila Yurov in the draft.
The guy has top 10 talent but will fall to the late 1st or early second.

People saying hel be a steal? From what i see is a player that wont translate and will take alot of goaltending interference penalties lol.
