Speaker 2: Block off, have a step hit on, staylock.

5
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:25,559
Speaker 1: Here's your hosts, Jesse Severe and Victor nuno Fantasy Hockey.

6
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,719
Speaker 2: Live back once again to talk fantasy hockey is Jesse

7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,240
Severe of fan Tracks and Victor Nunio of ep rnks.

8
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:33,320
Side Victor, how are you doing?

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:35,079
Speaker 3: Oh?

10
00:00:35,119 --> 00:00:36,039
Speaker 4: I'm doing great, Jesse.

11
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:36,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

12
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,719
Speaker 4: This is a great time of year and really exciting

13
00:00:39,759 --> 00:00:41,880
team to talk about. So I'm really excited to dig

14
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,759
into this team. How are you doing, I'm doing great.

15
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:45,119
Speaker 3: Yep.

16
00:00:45,719 --> 00:00:49,719
Speaker 2: The rookie drafts are they're coming upon, as Victory, we

17
00:00:49,799 --> 00:00:51,880
tend to set our rookie drafts a couple of months

18
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,000
out from the actual draft, so we have a little

19
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,240
time to digest and everything. But then they come at

20
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,320
us like a load of bricks. You got, I leave.

21
00:01:00,479 --> 00:01:04,400
I've counted in eleveny million? Is how many drafts you do, Victor?

22
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:04,920
Is that right?

23
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 4: It feels like that sometimes. And actually, as we were recording,

24
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,640
this one started today that I forgot about and yesterday

25
00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:15,920
that I forgot about. So luckily I'm prepping for these

26
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,159
all the time. So even though it feels like it

27
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,439
gets thrust upon me, I do. I am a bit ready.

28
00:01:21,439 --> 00:01:23,120
And that's a nice thing too about some of the

29
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,359
tools that we have available for you. If you feel lost,

30
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,599
you can you can be able to jump in and

31
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:30,040
not feel quite so lost.

32
00:01:31,239 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 2: There you go, There you go, all right, Victor. I

33
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,400
would recommend to people the Fantasy Hockey Life discord is

34
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:40,319

link that'll get you on in and Victor, what are

41
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,760
the other things people ought to know about out there?

42
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, some of the other cool things that you can do.

43
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:06,840
If you want to support us on Patreon, you can

44
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,919
get access to the ranks, the player cards, all kinds

45
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:14,039
of great content that we're always adding new things up there,

46
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,840
including some advanced stats. It's a prospect hub where you

47
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,719
can look at who are the best bashers, per points

48
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,199
and things like that. You can also look at the

49
00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:26,039
ADP project. The ADP project is actually something that we're

50
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,719
doing for free, so you don't even need to be

51
00:02:27,719 --> 00:02:30,280
a patron for that, and you can look at where

52
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,520
guys are going and their entry drafts and if you

53
00:02:33,199 --> 00:02:35,360
have a draft later then a lot of people. Then

54
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,800
you can use that information to decide how long you

55
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:40,439
wait on a player. And if you do want to

56
00:02:40,479 --> 00:02:43,400
contribute to that's free. You can access it on the

57
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,680
website Fantasyhockey Life dot com and you go to tools and

58
00:02:46,719 --> 00:02:49,319
you can should be able to see that without any access,

59
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,080
So yeah, you should do that and send us your

60
00:02:53,159 --> 00:02:55,400
rookie drafts if you can. That helps contribute to the

61
00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:57,919
project and it helps give us more data so we

62
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,800
can have a little bit more useful fullness to that.

63
00:03:01,319 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 5: And if you want to.

64
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,039
Speaker 4: Support the show, you can go to Patreon dot com

65

slash Fantasy Hockey Life. I told you about some great things.

66
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:09,039
The other great thing is the TIDI, the Tier Dynasty.

67
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,400
It's a great league that we're distributing all the teams

68
00:03:12,439 --> 00:03:14,439
right now and moving guys up and down, and you

69
00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:17,199
can come be part of that exciting process and we

70
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,840
talk about on the show. So it's a good time.

71
00:03:19,439 --> 00:03:22,840
All that available patroon dot com slash Fantasy Hockey life.

72
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 2: Very good and we'll be right back after this to

73
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:37,280
talk Carolina Hurricanes. We welcome to the show. Ryan Hinkel

74
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,159
from The Hockey News talking to us about those Carolina Hurricanes.

75
00:03:41,159 --> 00:03:42,120
How you doing today, Ryan?

76
00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:43,919
Speaker 5: Oh good? How you doing?

77
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,759
Speaker 2: Guys doing great? Doing great? Ready to talk Kings. You

78
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,479
know what, They had another great regular season. For the

79
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,199
third straight year, the Carolina Hurricanes allowed the fewest shots against.

80
00:03:56,639 --> 00:03:59,639
Like several of the playoff teams we've discussed, they feasted

81
00:03:59,759 --> 00:04:01,840
at that All Star break when some of the bottom

82
00:04:01,919 --> 00:04:04,800
feeders sold off. They were twenty eight to fifteen and

83
00:04:04,919 --> 00:04:08,639
five before the deadline, twenty four eight and two after

84
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,919
the deadline, finishing with the third most standing points in

85
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,960
the NHL after the dust all settled. Three of their

86
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,519
top eight scorers are gone next year and not part

87
00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:22,720
of this preview toylet Terevine and Brady Shay and Stefan Noisen,

88
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,160
as well as the prize deadline addition, Jake Gensel. We'll

89
00:04:26,199 --> 00:04:29,000
talk further about the guys coming in behind because there

90
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,399
are reinforcements on the way. They lost three straight in

91
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:35,199
the second run of the playoffs two and overtime and

92
00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:39,120
scrapped back to an overall four to two loss. They

93
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,319
won two straight before losing that series. The Kings keep

94
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:45,759
hitting a ceiling every year. I hate to say it

95
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,040
is this the year though, Ryan, Do you think they

96
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,120
can push over the top.

97
00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 5: I think always the goal is just to make the playoffs,

98
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,079
and you always say anything can happen. Goalie can get hot,

99
00:04:54,079 --> 00:04:56,879
things can get crazy. But I will say this year's

100
00:04:56,959 --> 00:04:59,519
roster is a step down from last year's roster. No

101
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,920
matter what you look at it, this is not as

102
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,360
good of a team as they had last year. And hey,

103
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,879
you can still win with out of the rest. I

104
00:05:06,959 --> 00:05:09,800
think the tam Bay Lightning had that crazy year, won everything,

105
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,199
got swapped by Columbus, but then they came back and

106
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,720
found a way to do it. So things can happen.

107
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:17,399
But this is definitely a step back team. Could they

108
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:20,600
win it, sure? I think, and making the playoffs is

109
00:05:20,759 --> 00:05:23,399
always just the first step. And when you have a

110
00:05:23,439 --> 00:05:25,800
lot of still young depth talent and you can still

111
00:05:25,879 --> 00:05:27,680
have some good runs in.

112
00:05:27,639 --> 00:05:33,879
Speaker 2: You outstanding it starts. This team starts for discussion purposes,

113
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,120
with Sebastian Ah. He is the star driving his team

114
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,360
and in his prime scored a team leading career high

115
00:05:41,439 --> 00:05:44,879
eighty nine points seventy eight games, takes three shots a game.

116
00:05:45,319 --> 00:05:47,720
He got himself a nice raise, not the normal thing

117
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:51,000
or not a frequent thing anyway, shall we see, shall

118
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,519
we say in Carolina got himself a nice raise nine

119
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,399
point seventy five million a year until he's thirty five

120
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,000
years old. Now the Keynes will get that coveted long

121
00:06:00,199 --> 00:06:04,240
term deal for certainty in a presumably rising cap. So

122
00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:07,839
sometimes they'd want that longer term because as you get

123
00:06:07,879 --> 00:06:09,240
to the end of that, maybe that'll be more of

124
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,399
a bargain. Aho has played reliably for eight years. He

125
00:06:13,519 --> 00:06:16,839
now signs on for eight more. And he got married

126
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,519
this week too, just newly. What to the theme of

127
00:06:19,519 --> 00:06:22,839
the day, Ryan Sebastianaho on Instagram. On instad he's got

128
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,560
pictures of getting married, so good for him. He got

129
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,600
art Selky and Lady bing Volts last year. Everything is

130
00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:33,079
coming up a hood. Do you see Aho remaining at

131
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,920
this kind of all star level Ryan for another year

132
00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:39,319
and continuing with this more than point per game pays.

133
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 5: I think this is the expassional Aho we can't expect

134
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,800
to see. I think anything less than this raising question mark.

135
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,240
This is a guy arguably a top ten center in

136
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:50,839
the league, ten to fifteen center, and it's this guy

137
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,720
who plays a complete competitive game, two way game. He

138
00:06:53,759 --> 00:06:56,800
plays hard defense, back checks, he four checks, he's on

139
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,959
the penalty killers, on the power play like he's a

140
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,279
guy who's just doing it all. And this is a guy,

141
00:07:01,399 --> 00:07:03,519
like you said, he's been getting better and better. He's

142
00:07:03,519 --> 00:07:06,279
been improving every year. And it's while his numbers maybe

143
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,759
incrementally getting better, his whole game is just getting the

144
00:07:09,839 --> 00:07:11,839
world's and worlds better. And when the whole game comes

145
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,360
easy to you, things like points in that start coming

146
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,879
much more easier to I think this is a guy

147
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,800
that we're going to see continue to take those steps

148
00:07:18,839 --> 00:07:21,279
even without they lose Jay Gnzel, who was like almost

149
00:07:21,279 --> 00:07:23,560
a perfect compliment alongside him for a bit in the playoffs.

150
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,199
But you'll still have a healthy Setchnikov, who should be

151
00:07:27,199 --> 00:07:31,000
fully recovered from that ACL surgery. You'll have eventually signed

152
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,240
Seth Jarvis next to him. You'll have good players next

153
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,720
to him that can keep him and elevate his game

154
00:07:35,759 --> 00:07:36,240
even more.

155
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of Andres Vechinikov, he's the next guy we're

156
00:07:40,879 --> 00:07:44,279
gonna discuss. After being pretty healthy for the first four

157
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,800
years of his career, Svechnikov has battled injuries in both

158
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,959
of the past two years. A torn ACL in March

159
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,560
delayed the start of his season in March twenty twenty

160
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,399
three delayed the start of this season, and he missed

161
00:07:56,439 --> 00:07:59,879
other stretches to upper body injuries throughout the year. He

162
00:08:00,079 --> 00:08:02,560
maintained a near point per game pace in the regular

163
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,720
season and again in the playoffs. Shot ray was down

164
00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:09,839
about a shot per game, though he's still outstanding in hits. Leagues.

165
00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:13,199
We love seeing Andre's vetch Nikov throwing two hits per game.

166
00:08:13,839 --> 00:08:17,199
Are we simply a run of good health away from

167
00:08:17,319 --> 00:08:21,000
seeing a fully operational andres vetching to CoV putting up

168
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,199
a monster ninety point season, or should we just be

169
00:08:24,279 --> 00:08:26,680
happy at the player we have right now, which is

170
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,120
a really excellent top line winger.

171
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:31,959
Speaker 5: I'm willing to I'm one of the ones willing to

172
00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:34,240
bet that there's so much more for sveetching up to give.

173
00:08:34,759 --> 00:08:38,600
I think he's fully capable of unlocking it himself. Like

174
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,440
you said, he's coming off that ACL injury and he's

175
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,200
still nearly a point per game. Player, And it's not

176
00:08:43,279 --> 00:08:46,120
easy to come off an ACL tear most players, it

177
00:08:46,159 --> 00:08:48,840
takes even if they're back within eight or so months,

178
00:08:48,879 --> 00:08:51,840
it still takes another year. So to fully feel comfortable,

179
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,000
to feel right when you're pushing off, when you're skating,

180
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,080
it's not the easiest thing to come back from. And

181
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,720
I think the other injuries, it's like things he got

182
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,000
cross checked in the ribs and he got kind of

183
00:09:01,039 --> 00:09:02,639
the boards, took an awkward hit. It's the ones that

184
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,879
maybe I would say indrey prone but unlucky circumstances sometimes.

185
00:09:07,399 --> 00:09:11,039
But I think with this ACL recovering being where it is,

186
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,519
I think we're gonna see Svencherkov take another step forward

187
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,840
as a complete player. He's just a guy again, the

188
00:09:17,879 --> 00:09:20,000
young guy you wouldn't know looking at him, dude to

189
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:23,480
an absolute monster, as you said, lays the body like

190
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,559
almost nobody else in the league kids, unreal muscle talent.

191
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,240
But I think this is a guy that I could

192
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:33,440
definitely see taking another step by seventy five point season

193
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:36,919
should be the norm for him player. The way he's

194
00:09:36,919 --> 00:09:38,440
able to play the game, the way he's able to

195
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,879
control the puck, control his body, we should be seventy point.

196
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 4: Two, Yes we should, and maybe even the next guy,

197
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,480
because Seth Jarvis is the next guy we're gonna talk about.

198
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,840
And he hit his breakout this season, finally nearly doubling

199
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:54,840
his point pace from last year and his season he

200
00:09:54,879 --> 00:09:57,440
went from thirty nine up to sixty eight, only missed

201
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,360
one game, his time on ice went up by a

202
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,320
couple of minutes, and got an even greater share of

203
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,240
that coveted power play time on ice. He had more

204
00:10:04,279 --> 00:10:06,080
power play points this season than he had in the

205
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,279
previous two combined. All in all, it was great. So, Ryan,

206
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,720
what do you think Jarvis can do now? Can he

207
00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:14,080
reach even greater heights, closer to point per game, or

208
00:10:14,159 --> 00:10:16,399
what do you think next season has a store for him.

209
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 5: I'm really excited to see cept Jarvis this year because

210
00:10:21,799 --> 00:10:23,840
he did all of this, like you said, thirty plus

211
00:10:23,879 --> 00:10:27,919
thirty goals, sixty plus points on a torn laboring and

212
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,759
torn rotator cuff that he suffered in November. He had

213
00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:34,039
been playing with a torn laborer rotor cuff from November

214
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,759
on through the entire season, and set these monster career

215
00:10:36,799 --> 00:10:40,000
eyes and so I'm just really excited to see if

216
00:10:40,039 --> 00:10:43,440
he's healthily recovered what he is fully capable of, because

217
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,600
that is insane to me just to think of what

218
00:10:46,639 --> 00:10:49,559
he was able to accomplish with those injuries. This good

219
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:53,919
kid is just an unstoppable engine. He's everything on like

220
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,080
in the media or whatnot of him being a goofball

221
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,720
in the locker room or on the ice. It's all true. Kids,

222
00:10:58,759 --> 00:11:01,080
He's so funny and he's a really good guy too.

223
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,480
He's just a lovable goofball. Run the ice, ultra competitive.

224
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,399
He's never giving up on a back check or a

225
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,080
ford check. He's a smaller guy in the league. He's

226
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,759
out obviously a shorter stature dude. You go see him

227
00:11:12,759 --> 00:11:14,759
out there in the corners like Victor Headman, trying to

228
00:11:14,799 --> 00:11:17,320
throw the body around. He is completely unafraid of any

229
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,000
of the larger players in the league. He goes to

230
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,519
the front of the net. He's on the penalty killer's

231
00:11:21,519 --> 00:11:24,039
on the power play. He's in his third NHL season,

232
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,559
he was top penalty killing alongside Jordan's Sault for the

233
00:11:26,639 --> 00:11:28,759
Hurricane to where one of the best penalty killed teams

234
00:11:28,759 --> 00:11:32,679
in the league. This kid is getting He's growing by

235
00:11:32,759 --> 00:11:35,879
leaps and bounds every single game, and it's crazy to

236
00:11:35,879 --> 00:11:38,919
think what he could possibly accomplish not playing on a

237
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,919
torn Laborman rotator cuff, which again.

238
00:11:40,879 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 2: Insane to me what he do with that outstanding Martine Nchaz.

239
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,320
At press time, I believe he has not yet signed

240
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,679
his RFA contract, although maybe that will be the case

241
00:11:53,759 --> 00:11:57,360
by the time this comes out. Those have been major

242
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,879
storylines the NHL offseason, some of the last things to

243
00:11:59,879 --> 00:12:03,120
be settled. He's thought of as an exciting young member

244
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,200
of this Carolina corps, though sometimes I forget he's only

245
00:12:06,279 --> 00:12:09,559
one year younger than Aho and too older than Sptchnikoff

246
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,840
and yes, Ricott Kinniemi. Most of Natchaz's stats were pretty

247
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,759
consistent with his breakthrough twenty twenty two to twenty three,

248
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,200
except that his surface stat of points dropped from seventy

249
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:26,279
one to fifty three. His defensive advanced stats were not great,

250
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,519
which is surprising on this team which always has great

251
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,600
possession stats driving, putting his standing points of up replacement

252
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,399
down quite a bit from the prior year. But he

253
00:12:37,519 --> 00:12:39,759
dropped from leading the Canes and power play tom on

254
00:12:39,799 --> 00:12:42,879
ice to sixth, which of course might explain some of

255
00:12:42,919 --> 00:12:46,039
that loss of production. Is this last year perceived as

256
00:12:46,159 --> 00:12:50,080
regression for Nachas or what do you expect from him

257
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:50,759
next year.

258
00:12:52,759 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 5: He's such an interesting player watch because you see all

259
00:12:55,600 --> 00:13:00,879
these flashes of talent. He's such a fascater Unreal stadium,

260
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,320
and he has this offensive blair. He can rip the puck,

261
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,799
he can move the buck, he's got great vision. But

262
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,000
it just it almost feels just like fire and ice,

263
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,840
like his side of play is just the antithesis like

264
00:13:12,919 --> 00:13:15,639
the Carolina Hurricanes is style of play. He's not gonna

265
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,440
ford check, he's not gonna throw the body, he's not

266
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,519
gonna go in those corners. He's going to try to

267
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,960
stick handle through people rather than dump and retrieve, and

268
00:13:23,039 --> 00:13:26,960
it's almos. It's frustrating to watch because you're like, you

269
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,840
can obviously see this player who's just uber talented, but

270
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,759
it's just not clicking with the way the rest of

271
00:13:32,799 --> 00:13:34,799
the team lays. Because you can have all the talent

272
00:13:34,879 --> 00:13:36,919
in the world, but hockey's team sport. You have to

273
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,279
have to go with your line. It's again, it's a

274
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,679
tricky thing where especially I think this year, he didn't

275
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,639
really have a great sentiment alongside him. Him and Ajo

276
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:51,360
have never really worked well together for whatever reason. So

277
00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:54,840
happened he was playing like yes, very cocainum. He had

278
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,360
had a terrible season. The holds part about that he

279
00:13:57,399 --> 00:14:00,159
had a really awful season. Just nothing was working for him.

280
00:14:00,399 --> 00:14:02,399
Jack Drury all for us good of a season as

281
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,600
he had in his first full year, He's still not

282
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,720
really a great offensive player. So you have this super

283
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,559
talented guy, Martin Chius, but it's like, what do you

284
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,440
do with him? Almost? I just I'm interested to see

285
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,879
if he does get traded, because those rumors are always

286
00:14:18,879 --> 00:14:22,639
circulating out about everywhere all the time what he's possible

287
00:14:22,679 --> 00:14:24,720
to do as a player. But I think as a

288
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:27,799
Caroline a Hurricane, it's really hard for me to see

289
00:14:27,879 --> 00:14:31,879
him repeating what he did in that twenty two twenty

290
00:14:31,879 --> 00:14:35,320
three season. And I think the fifty sixty point threshold

291
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,960
as high for him. And that's only if I think

292
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,679
someone like Drurry or Kokonami bounces up and has a

293
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,080
really good offensive year alongside him, because I just don't

294
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,399
know how much Natures can do on his own and

295
00:14:46,559 --> 00:14:48,399
not playing their way. The Hurricanes play as.

296
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 2: A team, Yeah, And now we're getting to that group

297
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:57,120
of the next forwards on this Carolina team. Jack Rosslovich

298
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,360
is a new import of intrigue. Going into his eighth

299
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,120
season in the NHL, He's on his fourth team, a

300
00:15:03,159 --> 00:15:06,000
modest one year deal to come in. Last year he

301
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,559
was pretty good and in the time he played, luckily

302
00:15:10,559 --> 00:15:12,480
for him, he was next to Chris Kreider and mika's

303
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,200
Avanta Dad. He even notched two assists in the game

304
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,279
that eliminated the Carolina Hurricanes from the playoffs. Maybe that

305
00:15:19,399 --> 00:15:21,720
was part of the reason they signed for him. Who knows,

306
00:15:22,039 --> 00:15:25,279
he's cruising for his more familiar bottom six role next year.

307
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,240
Where is Rastlovichkinna fitted this team and you think he

308
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,080
could get at least maybe a half point per game

309
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:31,799
type of production.

310
00:15:33,399 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 5: I don't know. I've never been a huge fan of

311
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,159
the player. I think he's got a reputation where he's

312
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,399
almost forced into the role to play like a higher

313
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:43,399
center position, because there's just the teams he was on

314
00:15:43,879 --> 00:15:46,080
never kind of have the talent and he was forced

315
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,679
into those roles. But even then he never flourished with opportunity.

316
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,840
I think, like over his career he's average like ten

317
00:15:51,879 --> 00:15:55,000
goals in twenty points per season. I mean, it's a

318
00:15:55,039 --> 00:15:57,600
guy he's got flashes. You see the passing talent, like

319
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,759
here and there. The skating ability, You're like, there could

320
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:01,879
be some than here, But eight seasons in the NHL,

321
00:16:02,039 --> 00:16:05,720
you're expecting put it together a little bit more, especially

322
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,360
with the opportunities he's gotten at times in Columbus or

323
00:16:08,399 --> 00:16:10,600
in Winnipeg. I don't know how much better it would

324
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,960
be in Carolina because I think he's I think it

325
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,000
would be, like you said, a bottom six role for him,

326
00:16:15,159 --> 00:16:17,519
A guy is if you're gonna fillut your bottom six,

327
00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:19,639
you want to have players that could play elevated in

328
00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:22,919
the lineup, guys that are just not borderline grinders. So

329
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:25,519
I think Roslav because the talent to be a middle

330
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:28,759
six player potentially. But there's like points, like you said,

331
00:16:28,799 --> 00:16:30,799
I don't know, I don't see I don't see a

332
00:16:30,799 --> 00:16:34,039
really productive season out of him in Carolina. Now I've

333
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,679
never seen that from the player. I just don't think

334
00:16:35,679 --> 00:16:39,080
it'll quite click here. If it hasn't clicked in his opportunities,

335
00:16:39,159 --> 00:16:39,799
is that elsewhere?

336
00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 2: We probably could have thrown Rastlovich into this bucket, But

337
00:16:44,279 --> 00:16:47,720
let's throw some of the other veteran returners into a

338
00:16:47,759 --> 00:16:49,519
bucket here and see who you think is going to

339
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:52,240
have the best year out of them. We got Jordan Martinook.

340
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:56,120
We got Jordan Stall of course is a very good

341
00:16:56,159 --> 00:17:00,639
real world player and longtime veteran Jack Drewy and yes

342
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,480
Berry kak Kanyemi. You already mentioned Drury and kat Kanyemi.

343
00:17:03,559 --> 00:17:06,519
Probably not your favorite of players coming in or not

344
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,720
the players you expect the greatest things from. But given

345
00:17:09,759 --> 00:17:11,799
those four, who do you think might have the best

346
00:17:11,799 --> 00:17:13,839
season that is are just fun?

347
00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 5: If we were talking about, like you said, like the fantasy,

348
00:17:15,559 --> 00:17:18,599
the points and all that he's going to produce, I

349
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,680
think you have to. I think you have to bet

350
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,720
on You have to bet almost low on Cocainami is.

351
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,559
You can't get worse than what he just did in

352
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:30,920
that season. And because Jordan Stall you're getting, it's you're

353
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,519
not getting. You're not going to get more than fourteen

354
00:17:33,559 --> 00:17:37,000
goals thirty five points is pushing it for him. Same

355
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:39,079
with Jordan Mardoch. I think Jordan Monok's a great player,

356
00:17:39,079 --> 00:17:41,119
but it's a doubble diede of goals around ten to

357
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,960
thirteen thirty points. That's what you're expecting out of them

358
00:17:44,039 --> 00:17:47,160
every single season. What they do well is consistency, and

359
00:17:48,079 --> 00:17:50,519
I don't think you can expect much more out of

360
00:17:50,559 --> 00:17:53,359
that jectory is an interesting case. I think he's a

361
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,680
player that there's still more to give, but he's also

362
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,920
I think twenty three now, he's he's an older guy's

363
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,240
he bounced around. He played in Sweden and then he

364
00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:04,880
went to the HL and then working into Carolina, so

365
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,359
he's not necessarily a young guy. But I think there's

366
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,079
still room for him to develop a little more. I

367
00:18:09,079 --> 00:18:12,240
think he played well a source full season. He's good defensively,

368
00:18:12,279 --> 00:18:14,640
and I think the offense can come a little bit more.

369
00:18:15,519 --> 00:18:18,039
But again, I think if you're gonna look at that

370
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,200
and you can be like you gotta pick one to

371
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,240
outproduce everybody, I'm like Colcamy has the talent to be better.

372
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,079
It's and like I said, I can't get worse than

373
00:18:28,079 --> 00:18:30,680
it was. It cannot get worse. And now he played

374
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,920
last season, if he gets the opportunity again, if Rod says, hey,

375
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,960
it was a bad season last year, shake it off,

376
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,880
try to come back, do a little bit better this year.

377
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,440
Because he was really good along there, especially Coffin Martin

378
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:45,279
his tes ago, he was one of Carolina's top producers

379
00:18:45,319 --> 00:18:47,039
in the second half of that season. He was super,

380
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,319
super consistent, really putting up points. But it's again one

381
00:18:51,319 --> 00:18:53,559
of those things sometimes and it just doesn't go. Guys

382
00:18:53,599 --> 00:18:55,960
script their sticks, the confidence goes, and I think if

383
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,599
he can come into a fresh mindset, I'll take the risk.

384
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,799
I take the big risk, knowing that really very well backfire.

385
00:19:03,839 --> 00:19:06,799
But I would say, Cocainyammy, I do expect him to

386
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:07,880
be better than he was.

387
00:19:08,559 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 4: Fairly all right. A couple of the young guys I

388
00:19:11,519 --> 00:19:15,759
wanted to ask you about Bradley Nadeau, Jackson Blake, and

389
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:17,960
both of these guys got one game at the end

390
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,039
of the season. Jackson Blake a little bit older and

391
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,759
he's had a stellar career at North Dakota and Bradley

392
00:19:24,799 --> 00:19:28,200
Nadeau a little bit younger, he's still nineteen and had

393
00:19:28,319 --> 00:19:30,559
a really great first season and Maine. Do you think

394
00:19:30,599 --> 00:19:33,359
either of these guys makes the roster and has an

395
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,359
impact for the NHL team this year?

396
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 5: Are they destined for maybe the AHL?

397
00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 6: Well?

398
00:19:40,759 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 5: I think, like grappling left two, trying to figure out this, Well,

399
00:19:43,759 --> 00:19:46,519
you said, just really, Ubertald the kid like Nadou May

400
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,160
making the jump from the BHL to college hockey, producing

401
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,960
as well as he did as a rupie. He is

402
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,559
almost unheard of guts an insane jumping talent level and

403
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,640
to be is to do as because he did, kids

404
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,880
got a great shot up, tempo play. I could see

405
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,440
it again. Jackson Blake similar kind of had a huge

406
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,640
season at the University of North Dakota. This season was

407
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,079
a Hobie Baker finalist sixty point season. Similar kind of

408
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,279
game just for check hard, go to the net. Does

409
00:20:14,319 --> 00:20:18,079
it all both these players. Because Eric Tolski in his

410
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,079
I can't remember which presser was one of his most

411
00:20:20,079 --> 00:20:23,000
recent pressors, he talked about how the team was gonna

412
00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:25,759
need younger guys to step up. Whether he's referring to

413
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,400
kind of guys like Cocaine a mayor Drewy flaking bigger roles,

414
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,519
or guys like Nido and Blake coming in and filling

415
00:20:30,599 --> 00:20:33,920
those roster spots. It's a natural progression. It's got to come.

416
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,920
I would personally think that potentially they'll need at least

417
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,720
half a season with maturing in the AHL, just figuring

418
00:20:39,759 --> 00:20:42,680
out the more of an adult game that comes along.

419
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,319
Could they make though out of training camp, I do

420
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,640
think there's still a middle six winger bought open for

421
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,839
the Hurricanes coming into training camp. I think the big

422
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,160
question mark they're still I could see one of the

423
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,039
two of them making a real run for it, depending

424
00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:58,720
on how training camp goes, how preseason goes, because the

425
00:20:58,839 --> 00:21:01,960
Kaines need somebody filled those roster spots. They need these

426
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,839
young guys to start taking those next steps. It's got

427
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,880
to happen, and it's gotta happen soon. Another guy that

428
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:12,079
I would mention is Felix unger sorom Swedish kid played

429
00:21:12,079 --> 00:21:14,960
with Lexan this year and also made the World Championship roster.

430
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,200
All play two games with them, but he was on

431
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,680
the World Championship roster with all the other NHL players.

432
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,759
His an eighteen year old kid who's been making impressions.

433
00:21:22,799 --> 00:21:24,680
He was one of the final cuts for the Hurricanes

434
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,759
last preseason. Another guy I would say is Ryan Suzuki,

435
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,079
who has been maturing the AHL a couple of seasons now.

436
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,839
He had bad health, bad health, run ins injury luck

437
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,359
for multiple seasons, but he's had two really consistent seasons

438
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,839
in the AHL. Two way guy. I could see if

439
00:21:39,839 --> 00:21:42,000
the Hurricanes get injury and Cetter position, I could see

440
00:21:42,079 --> 00:21:44,000
him getting the call up and finally potentially getting his

441
00:21:44,039 --> 00:21:46,960
shot that he hasn't had either, but circling back, I

442
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,960
think Nado Blaker saw him. I could see either one

443
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,480
of those potentially making the run out of training camp,

444
00:21:52,559 --> 00:21:55,279
but I could see I would more likely think about

445
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,160
maybe half of the season of maturing in the AHL

446
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,160
at the very least, and then maybe getting the call

447
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,200
up running with Let's.

448
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 2: Move over to the blue line, and we're gonna start

449
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,880
with Shane gostas Bear, the journeyman defenseman who comes into

450
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,839
this team. He's got power play skills, will travel. That's

451
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,519
his motto. In Detroit, he not only led defenseman in scoring,

452
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,759
his twenty seven power play assists tied for ninth in

453
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:23,039
the NHL. And for those not paying attention, this is

454
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,559
his second tour in Carolina, following a trade deadline trade

455
00:22:27,839 --> 00:22:30,119
the year before that saw him end of season in Black,

456
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,559
Redd and white. His twenty three regular season in fifteen

457
00:22:34,599 --> 00:22:37,880
playoff games with Carolina were probably the least productive stretch

458
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,799
of his career, but he probably also got a smaller

459
00:22:41,079 --> 00:22:44,079
role when he was there than he has at other times.

460
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,880
I should say those fifteen playoff games YEA in Carolina

461
00:22:47,039 --> 00:22:51,759
represents fifteen of his career thirty two playoff appearances and

462
00:22:52,519 --> 00:22:57,119
several years of nine years of NHL action. Do we

463
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,279
expect a bigger role than last time from Shee and

464
00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:03,319
grossaspeer this time in Carolina? Could he get any power

465
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,759
play one time? Maybe fifty points season? What do you

466
00:23:06,799 --> 00:23:07,440
think for him?

467
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 5: That'd be another It's another interesting one because the Hurricanes

468
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,640
are so loaded on the left hand side with Slavin

469
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:16,119
and Orlov. But like you said, Gossip Sperre is a

470
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,839
guy who's a really strong powerplay contributor, and he's the

471
00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:21,640
guy who's familiar with the Hurricanes. Red Burns is a

472
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,599
guy as a Hall of Fame career, and as good

473
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,400
as he has been, he is definitely slowing down his

474
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,599
second half of last season. Yeah, you could definitely tell

475
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,640
that this still a good player. He was not quite

476
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,880
an elite player they have expected from him over his

477
00:23:37,079 --> 00:23:39,920
entire VON career. So I could see a guy like

478
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,079
gossas Bear maybe filling in that. Brady shay Roll who's

479
00:23:43,599 --> 00:23:46,759
for Carolina, who's a really good player, produced well playing

480
00:23:46,759 --> 00:23:50,519
in that then second pairing got power play time swapped

481
00:23:50,519 --> 00:23:52,519
with Burns of times to get the first pathleay in it.

482
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,279
I could see Gosap Spered doing a similar thing because again,

483
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,480
this guy, this guy knows how to score it, know

484
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,160
how to put up points, and that's a big thing

485
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,000
of the NHL. You need guys that can do that.

486
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,279
It's interesting because I'm like, the Hurricanes are a team

487
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,319
that love to keep their consistent pairings. You will hardly

488
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,480
ever see them shake up. The deep pairs or off

489
00:24:11,559 --> 00:24:13,920
in Chatfield are really comfortable together. Slateon Burns are really

490
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:18,119
comfortable together. Of Walker Gossip's spare doesn't work out, you

491
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,079
can see them just moving. But I would expect them

492
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,720
to have maybe second third pair of minutes. I don't know,

493
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,039
hard to say, but yeah, as a guy that I

494
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:31,880
could think would get power play time, but I don't

495
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,640
know how much five and five ice time if you

496
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,000
outpaced the other guys. Yeah, that's fair.

497
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,279
Speaker 4: And the aforementioned bren Burns is who we're going to

498
00:24:40,319 --> 00:24:42,640
talk about now. The fact that we're still talking about

499
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,359
Beren Burns as a major contributor to an NHL team

500
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,359
twenty years after he was drafted is pretty incredible. His

501
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,160
first season in Carolina went was great, twenty three minute

502
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,839
time on I sixty one point pace to go with

503
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,559
lots of shots. This past season he lost almost two

504
00:24:55,559 --> 00:24:57,759
minutes of time on ice, but he still led the team,

505
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,599
which is crazy. He'll be forty this season. I'm not

506
00:25:01,759 --> 00:25:03,960
really sure what to expect me. You said, I've seen

507
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,319
this too. He's slowed down quite a bit from his

508
00:25:06,759 --> 00:25:09,680
previous year's. The time on ice is trending down but

509
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,039
still very high, and he's still getting a very large

510
00:25:13,079 --> 00:25:15,960
that he's getting the largest share of the power play time.

511
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:17,880
So do you think that's going to continue? What kind

512
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,200
of time on ice and power play role in point

513
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,000
pase do you think we can expect from Brent Burns

514
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:22,480
this season?

515
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 5: It'll be I think the Canes it's gonna be like

516
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,359
a waiting period to see how much gossip Sparan Walker

517
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,359
can click because there was a seven thing Rod ben

518
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,680
Moore and his one of his recent interviews talking about

519
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,319
all the guys they lost. He's like, maybe it's the

520
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,079
season where Jacob Slaven's going to play more three more

521
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,640
minutes than he's used to. So whoever plays alongside Slaven

522
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,880
will be getting those big minutes. And as we said,

523
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,759
it's been Burns for a while. But it's interesting because,

524
00:25:47,799 --> 00:25:49,519
like he said, his time on ice is trending down

525
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,640
his shots on goal this season. This is a stat

526
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,680
that I kept going back to and just being astounded by.

527
00:25:54,759 --> 00:25:56,160
He only had one hundred and eighty five shots on

528
00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:00,000
gold this season, which is considerably less than any seas

529
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,319
he's a prior to this. He's three hundred plus shot

530
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,440
guy consistently, and it's this is a guy who usually

531
00:26:05,519 --> 00:26:07,119
is known for being able to get pucks of the net,

532
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,079
just wasn't being able to get pucks of the net.

533
00:26:10,279 --> 00:26:12,920
As he said, father time is the full time catching

534
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,000
up is he changes his waist playing who knows, but

535
00:26:16,319 --> 00:26:19,759
it's a less it's the less dominant bred burns than

536
00:26:19,799 --> 00:26:22,000
we're used to seeing, and that's to be expected from

537
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,680
a thirty nine four year old player. It's also unheard

538
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,319
of that guys that's older, I push you as well,

539
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,240
Big do putting up double digit goals forty point season

540
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,720
the usually I would say never happened, but yeah, I

541
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,359
would can expect. Maybe it's time an ice to continue

542
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,039
trending down. If we can see a guy like Costa

543
00:26:39,079 --> 00:26:42,440
spe Walker really click with the team, I could see

544
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,039
it maybe getting a little bit of that defensive pair shuffling,

545
00:26:45,519 --> 00:26:48,160
maybe getting time on ice with Slaven and getting more

546
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,519
of a run. It all depends on how Burns continues

547
00:26:51,519 --> 00:26:54,279
to look. Is he gonna is he gonna is this

548
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,440
long rest gonna be beneficial for him? Is he gonna

549
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:57,880
be able to get back up the level he's at,

550
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,640
or is he just gonna be, you know, time catching

551
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,319
up to one of the one of the league's best

552
00:27:02,319 --> 00:27:05,440
players of all time. But a guy that's forty is

553
00:27:05,759 --> 00:27:07,359
not an easy age splay hockey yet.

554
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about that. There are several other prominent

555
00:27:12,079 --> 00:27:15,279
defensemen on this team. They're probably more prominent from a

556
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,079
real war perspective where there's a lot of goodness to

557
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,000
them than they are from a fantasy perspective. Necessarily a

558
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:27,799
Jacob Slavin you mentioned, Sean Walker, newly arrived Dmitri orloff Old,

559
00:27:28,319 --> 00:27:32,960
Capital's veteran. These three guys are all quite legit. They're

560
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,599
all very strong defensemen who probably aren't going to put

561
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,599
up a whole ton of points, although they're going to

562
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,640
make a huge impact for the team on the defensive end.

563
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,319
Who do you think maybe will have the best offensive

564
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:45,200
season of these three?

565
00:27:45,319 --> 00:27:49,519
Speaker 5: Brian, I would still go with Slavin because he's just

566
00:27:49,599 --> 00:27:52,160
gonna be getting such a huge bulk of time on ice.

567
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,319
Is a guy who's gonna be He's gonna be the

568
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,359
first pairing guy. It's gonna be your number one defenseman,

569
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,559
no matter who he's playing alongside and whether it's Bred

570
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,519
Burn like I said, Jane Shutting, got spare Sean Walker.

571
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,400
He's going to be alongside them, playing the big minutes

572
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,359
with the big guys, Aho Steps Cop Jarvis. So I

573
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,279
would expect Flavian to be able to keep consistently getting

574
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,680
thirty five, even maybe pushing forty points depending on how

575
00:28:16,799 --> 00:28:20,240
well his partners do. But I would say Sean Walker

576
00:28:20,279 --> 00:28:22,400
had a good season in Philly and Colorado this year,

577
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,039
but he's not a point put rapper really. So far

578
00:28:25,079 --> 00:28:28,119
throughout his career he hasn't had super big point guy.

579
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,119
Orlov is an interesting one. I would think Orlove would

580
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,440
be more productive this year than he was last year.

581
00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:37,720
This guy, I think he hit the crossbar eight times,

582
00:28:37,839 --> 00:28:40,599
no joke, throughout the season, and it's so close to

583
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,279
scoring so many goals and it's insane because shot is

584
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,359
a massive cannon. This guy actually a Lowe's and it's

585
00:28:48,599 --> 00:28:51,880
he It's Carolina is a hard team to adapt to

586
00:28:52,279 --> 00:28:55,319
as a defenseman. We've seen it for years, Dougie Hamilton,

587
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,759
Jake Gardner, Brady Shay. Every time these offensive guys would

588
00:28:58,759 --> 00:29:01,079
come in, it takes them think it's a good while

589
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,240
to figure out the hurricane system. But then once they do,

590
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,720
it clicks and they're often running. So like a guy

591
00:29:06,799 --> 00:29:09,880
like Sean Walker, maybe works and clicks. But again part

592
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,400
to say, but like for Orloff, maybe this is the

593
00:29:13,559 --> 00:29:15,559
he had the period of I need to figure out

594
00:29:15,599 --> 00:29:18,240
how to pack herre on Hurricane Tuckey. Now it's second nature,

595
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,759
it's gonna click. I'm gonna take them running. Who's one

596
00:29:21,759 --> 00:29:25,160
I would say, Slaven what Orloff potential potential? Is there

597
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,200
to be a double digit scorer once again? I really

598
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:27,480
think so?

599
00:29:28,799 --> 00:29:33,079
Speaker 4: One of the really young defensemen. Obviously everyone's excited about Nikishin,

600
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,640
but we're gonna have to wait on that one. It

601
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,759
seems at least one more year. But Scott Morrow is

602
00:29:36,759 --> 00:29:41,000
another guy who has been really excellent at UMass since

603
00:29:41,039 --> 00:29:42,680
being drafted out of high school, and he got a

604
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,599
couple of games with Carolina last year. He feels like

605
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,359
he's pretty NH already. He didn't seem too terribly out

606
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,799
of place at times in that role. Do you think

607
00:29:50,839 --> 00:29:53,440
that there's any world where Scott Morrow gets a role

608
00:29:53,559 --> 00:29:55,920
this year or are we still a year or maybe

609
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,359
a mid season call up away from that.

610
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 5: I think it's still waiting period. I don't think Caroline

611
00:30:01,799 --> 00:30:04,000
is a team that is really okay with letting their

612
00:30:04,079 --> 00:30:07,279
prospects develop immature. I don't think they really want to

613
00:30:07,359 --> 00:30:09,759
rush anybody up if they don't have to. Brandamore is

614
00:30:09,759 --> 00:30:11,400
a really big proponent of that. He doesn't want to

615
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,519
put guys in position to not succeed, and so I

616
00:30:14,559 --> 00:30:17,079
think Morrow getting a full season in the AHL to

617
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,680
be the number one power play guy, to be their

618
00:30:18,759 --> 00:30:22,160
number one really mature into that role, I think will

619
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,640
be really beneficial for him. But like I said, barring

620
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,200
any long term serious injuries, I don't see us really

621
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,519
a significant usage of him or a role from with

622
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:31,319
the team this year.

623
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 4: Yeah that's fair.

624
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:33,319
Speaker 2: All right.

625
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 5: Let's move on to the goalies.

626
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:35,319
Speaker 3: Now.

627
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 4: Carolina ranked third and expected goals against per sixty, but

628
00:30:39,079 --> 00:30:42,440
conceded the seventh ranked actual goals, so they were a

629
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,400
little bit below expected as you can tell there. Obviously,

630
00:30:45,519 --> 00:30:48,680
there was some issues with health wise for Freddy at

631
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,720
the beginning. He ended up playing sixteen games, could Checkkov

632
00:30:51,799 --> 00:30:56,640
forty two and Spencer Martin into playing nineteen. Overall, Anderston

633
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,279
had definitely had the best goalsa but expected at six

634
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,400
point eight to seven, but he also didn't play that

635
00:31:02,519 --> 00:31:04,759
many games, and Kochekhov, who played the most, had the

636
00:31:04,839 --> 00:31:08,319
most negative goals save above expected. Freddy's now thirty four,

637
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,920
he makes the most at three point four million last

638
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,759
year before he's at UFA and mentioned having the some

639
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,519
of the best stats on a smaller issue in a

640
00:31:17,559 --> 00:31:20,920
smaller sample size Kotchekov, but he played a lot of

641
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,960
games two three more seasons at two million, so it's

642
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,359
not that far off from or Freddy's making. Spencer Martin

643
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,160
played six Not sure how much he factors in there. So, Ryan,

644
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,599
what do you think we can expect this season for

645
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,759
the Kins goalies? How many stars do you think they

646
00:31:33,799 --> 00:31:36,200
each get? Is Kochekhov going to have the majority of

647
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:37,920
the starts again or are they going to go back

648
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:39,200
to Anderson? What are we thinking?

649
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 5: I think it's going to be like a really true

650
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,640
one a one bat situation. I think we're going to

651
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,240
see them pretty much alternate every other game. The Hurricanes

652
00:31:48,279 --> 00:31:51,440
have been doing this for years now. They really the

653
00:31:51,559 --> 00:31:54,039
alternating goalie. They were doing it like with one of

654
00:31:54,079 --> 00:31:57,759
the rybern ad Elgebik when it was Barazak, Maclay was

655
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,240
Ratza Anderson. They love going back and forth between guys,

656
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:03,680
and like I said at the end, when Ederson came

657
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,000
back from his health issues from the blood clotting issues

658
00:32:06,039 --> 00:32:09,720
he'd suffered back in November, him in Kochkow literally went

659
00:32:09,839 --> 00:32:11,839
game for game. It was Freddy got a game of Cutcho,

660
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,240
Freddy got a game, and they went all the way

661
00:32:14,279 --> 00:32:17,119
into the postseason, where then Freddy got the rings took

662
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,799
over from there. I would really expect to see that

663
00:32:20,599 --> 00:32:23,599
almost again. Maybe you ride a guy too three games

664
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,480
in a row. If he's really going good, I'll shut

665
00:32:26,519 --> 00:32:30,519
out really big game. But Carolina is really hesitanting about

666
00:32:30,559 --> 00:32:34,720
overworking goaltenders because but whatever it is, it's almost a

667
00:32:34,759 --> 00:32:37,359
little bit of a curse in Carolina goalie injuries. It's

668
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,880
been unreal for a while now. But I think they're

669
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,920
going to be banning on I Henderson to be able

670
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,839
to with a full season of recovery and conditioning under him,

671
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,000
to be able to go that half the season mark.

672
00:32:49,039 --> 00:32:52,240
With Kochikov going back and forth between them so long

673
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,359
as they can stay healthy, which is obviously not a

674
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,720
given for goaltenders in Carolina, never has been. But I

675
00:32:58,759 --> 00:33:01,559
think the expectation would be for them pretty much evenly

676
00:33:01,599 --> 00:33:02,359
split the load.

677
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,799
Speaker 4: Okay, even just you said one A and B. I

678
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,559
was just wondering, if you had a thought of who

679
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:09,759
is leaning towards the A.

680
00:33:11,319 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 5: I would still say I think Brenda more is more

681
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,119
leaning towards the veterans, like Anderson as we saw in

682
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,279
the postseason. I think if they were to have a guy,

683
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,519
who would still be Anderson until Kotchkov can prove beyond

684
00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:28,119
a shadow of the doubt that he is. Granted, if

685
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,839
if Anderson has a really bad run and Kachkov is

686
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,039
really great riding Witch, but I think out of the

687
00:33:33,119 --> 00:33:37,119
gate there's Anderson is their guy. They believe in Anderson.

688
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,839
There's a really big mentality of hey, we brought you

689
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,039
in to be the guy, We're gonna let you be

690
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,519
the guide. I think it'll still be leaning towards Katerson.

691
00:33:46,559 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 2: All right, Ryan, this has been some insightful talk about

692
00:33:50,279 --> 00:33:52,519
the Carolina Hurricanes. Why did you let people know where

693
00:33:52,519 --> 00:33:53,680
they can check out all your work?

694
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,039
Speaker 5: You can find me on the hockey news flash Carolin

695
00:33:57,039 --> 00:33:59,960
a Hurricanes team site daily content. That's been a little

696
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:01,559
bit of hiatus as I was on a two week

697
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,000
vacation in Japan, but it'll be back to being daily content.

698
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,119
All things are calendar Hurricanes to talk about. You can

having me.

713
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,079
Speaker 5: Guys, will be.

714
00:34:49,199 --> 00:35:03,039
Speaker 2: Back right after this. Wolf Since then, that's good fire Pats,

715
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,119
Oh my goodness, ro Wong with a cat what gram?

716
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,480
Now it's your wingley goalie talk. But Kat Silverman Cat's instincts.

717
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:18,079
Speaker 4: Time once again for Kat's instincts with Cat Silverman of

718
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:22,199
NGL MAG, we're talking Kine's goalies, and we're gonna start

719
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:26,079
with Ruslan Kaziyev. He was a twenty twenty three fifth

720
00:35:26,159 --> 00:35:29,599
round pick six four one pounds. Last year we talked

721
00:35:29,599 --> 00:35:31,320
about how it was silly that he was in the

722
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,280
MHL because he should have at least gotten some VHL time.

723
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,519
Funny story about that he got one VHL game and

724
00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:39,800
then dominated the MHL some more. So I'm not sure

725
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,679
if we learn anything new Kat. His equivalency still looks

726
00:35:42,679 --> 00:35:44,480
really high in this system, but it's all based on

727
00:35:44,679 --> 00:35:47,920
MHL time, which I'm always a little skeptical of because

728
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,079
of that league being so weird. He's got some compso

729
00:35:51,199 --> 00:35:53,760
that are pretty decent. One of them is Nikolai Haabibulin,

730
00:35:54,159 --> 00:35:56,920
but his equivalency was based on his KHL time, so

731
00:35:57,079 --> 00:35:59,679
I'm not sure how app that is he. What are

732
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,360
you in Stan tell us about Kaziyev?

733
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 6: Kat, I'm I was curious about why he stayed in

734
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,760
the MHL, but this past year I did notice that

735
00:36:08,119 --> 00:36:11,880
he has signed his entry level deal with the Hurricanes,

736
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,960
so there's a chance that he might be coming over.

737
00:36:16,199 --> 00:36:18,159
I do know that there's a quote from their GM

738
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,280
saying that he had a strong junior career in Russian.

739
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,280
We're excited to see him transition to the pro level

740
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,039
in North America. So I wonder if he's going to

741
00:36:26,119 --> 00:36:28,159
be making his way over to start in the AHL

742
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:33,159
instead of getting VHL and KHL time and then making

743
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:34,039
his way over.

744
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:36,599
Speaker 3: Which should be fun.

745
00:36:36,639 --> 00:36:40,199
Speaker 6: I think the Hurricanes are a team that we've talked

746
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,840
about a couple teams making some really really interesting choices

747
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,039
when it comes to who they have in their goaltending system,

748
00:36:47,039 --> 00:36:48,760
because it seems like they add guys.

749
00:36:48,599 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 3: When they don't need to.

750
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 6: Carolina is a team that I think absolutely needs to

751
00:36:53,119 --> 00:36:58,960
because they've been writing, for lack of a nicer term,

752
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,480
they've been writing some ag goaltenders for too long now,

753
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:09,199
and their prospect system has been very plentiful in terms

754
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:13,360
of volume, but not necessarily in terms of quality. They've

755
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,880
had a lot of c rate prospects for goaltenders.

756
00:37:17,039 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 3: I don't know. I think.

757
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 6: I'm excited to see I'm assuming he's coming to North

758
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,840
America this year, and so we'll probably get to see

759
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,320
him at the AHL level and I'd love to see

760
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,280
what he can do in North America. Some of the

761
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,960
few clips I was able to find on him, he

762
00:37:33,079 --> 00:37:35,599
plays a game that looks pretty controlled, so it should

763
00:37:35,639 --> 00:37:39,920
be fun to see what happens when essentially he's not

764
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,639
a guy who should be playing at a higher level

765
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,440
playing against kids, because that's what's been happening the last

766
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,159
couple of years here. He's been someone who had no

767
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:52,719
business playing at these lower levels, who has been playing

768
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:53,599
at the lower level.

769
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 3: So it would be almost like if we were not.

770
00:37:57,079 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 6: Quite like watching someone like Connor McDavid playing in the

771
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,159
BHL instead of the OHL. I that's not quite like that,

772
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,840
but it did seem a little bit like we were

773
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,559
seeing someone who should have made a higher leap staying

774
00:38:09,599 --> 00:38:11,880
in a lower quality of competition.

775
00:38:12,119 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 3: So I don't know, we'll see how that goes.

776
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 6: Carolina has to figure something out with their prospect system soon, right,

777
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,320
So maybe this is who they're maybe this is who

778
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:22,039
they're going to hinge on.

779
00:38:22,199 --> 00:38:22,559
Speaker 3: We'll see.

780
00:38:23,679 --> 00:38:27,639
Speaker 4: You described it as quantity over quality, and I think

781
00:38:27,679 --> 00:38:31,000
that explains their entire prospect system, not just their goalies,

782
00:38:31,079 --> 00:38:33,719
but they just have They got a lot of guys

783
00:38:34,039 --> 00:38:36,079
and it's funny how a lot of people think that

784
00:38:36,519 --> 00:38:38,320
it means that they have a strong system, and I

785
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,519
don't know that I agree with that because they don't

786
00:38:40,599 --> 00:38:43,000
have necessarily the top guys. They just have a lot

787
00:38:43,039 --> 00:38:45,559
of guys that are decent, and that's that doesn't really

788
00:38:45,639 --> 00:38:46,360
necessarily help.

789
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:47,519
Speaker 5: So we'll see.

790
00:38:47,559 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 4: But I think Kaziyev could be the exception here, depends

791
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,800
on how he does in North America. As you suggested,

792
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,159
Let's talk about the other guy, Yanna Peretz, undrafted six

793
00:38:57,199 --> 00:39:00,239
to one and one pounds, signed by Carolina one National

794
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,079
championship with Quinnipiac in the previous season. Last season, he

795
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,480
had one NHL appearance, but he was mostly with the

796
00:39:07,519 --> 00:39:12,320
ECCHL Norfolk Admirals, and he struggled a bit. Save percentage

797
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,159
under eight ninety. He had a two point nine i GPA,

798
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,559
so just under three but pretty close. So his hockey

799
00:39:19,639 --> 00:39:22,360
prospecting is pretty low down in the ten percent range.

800
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,880
So I don't know if you can tell us anything

801
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,039
about Pretz. Has your perspective change or is there anyone

802
00:39:28,079 --> 00:39:30,960
else that is maybe better than him that we should discuss.

803
00:39:32,639 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 6: Oh, Like I said, I think their whole system is

804
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,079
honestly a lot of sea range prospects there. Quinnipiac is

805
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:45,000
a fun team at the collegiate level because they do

806
00:39:45,159 --> 00:39:50,679
tend to prioritize giving their goaltenders good development, good morale.

807
00:39:51,039 --> 00:39:54,599
I know a couple of the prior goaltenders from Quinnipiac,

808
00:39:54,639 --> 00:39:56,960
and no one has gone there and had a bad

809
00:39:57,079 --> 00:39:59,760
thing to say about being a goalie there, which isn't

810
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,159
ass necessarily something that we can say about every NCAA system.

811
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,679
He didn't look amazing in his ECCHL games this year

812
00:40:06,679 --> 00:40:11,039
from a numbers perspective, but the ECCHL is like when

813
00:40:11,079 --> 00:40:13,199
we look at the Russian leagues, where there's such a

814
00:40:14,079 --> 00:40:17,920
variance in quality of competition, we can't always count what

815
00:40:18,039 --> 00:40:21,599
we see in the ECCHL as from a numbers perspective being.

816
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,199
Speaker 3: The be all end all. But I did look up

817
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:27,920
a couple highlights and he looked fine.

818
00:40:28,679 --> 00:40:30,159
Speaker 6: He didn't look like he was having the best time,

819
00:40:30,199 --> 00:40:31,519
but he didn't look like he was having the worst

820
00:40:31,559 --> 00:40:32,000
time either.

821
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:37,760
Speaker 3: I don't know their system's really it's there, it's a system.

822
00:40:38,599 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 6: I truly don't have anything bad to say about him,

823
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,039
because I didn't watch him play and think, oh, this

824
00:40:43,119 --> 00:40:45,159
guy really needs to tighten up his edges. This guy

825
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,440
needs to stop over sliding. This guy needs to figure

826
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,360
out his tracking. He just looked like he was there.

827
00:40:50,159 --> 00:40:52,559
But I could say the same about almost all of

828
00:40:52,639 --> 00:40:56,360
their prospects. They don't have anyone who's like a huge

829
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,320
red flag, But they don't have anyone who looks like

830
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:02,000
they're ready to step up and take over anytime soon.

831
00:41:02,119 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 3: I don't know. I think they're hoping that someone will

832
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,599
stand out this year. Maybe it'll be him. I don't know.

833
00:41:09,039 --> 00:41:09,880
If he looked fine.

834
00:41:11,039 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 4: Wow, the ringing endorsement there for the Carolina Cooley thinks

835
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,199
so much. Caffick, give me your instincts on these guys.

836
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:34,119
Speaker 2: Dig the dynasty jig pickture. There are always the Carolina

837
00:41:34,199 --> 00:41:38,159
Hurricanes or the hipster system. Everybody always loves their lower picks.

838
00:41:38,639 --> 00:41:43,079
They are the hit of Fantasy hockey Twitter. Who is

839
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,400
the no brainer? Who is just undeniable in this system?

840
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,760
Speaker 4: That would be Alexander Nikishin. And yeah, I feel like

841
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,760
the Carolina Hurricanes every time in the draft. They just

842
00:41:54,039 --> 00:41:56,199
You probably had this experience in your rookie drafts where

843
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,719
guys are making all these weird picks and then there's

844
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,360
some like massive obvious pick just staring at you in

845
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,000
the face and you just walk up and take it.

846
00:42:05,599 --> 00:42:07,840
And that feels like that's what Carolina does every year.

847
00:42:08,039 --> 00:42:13,079
There's always some great prospect, usually Russian or potentially has

848
00:42:13,119 --> 00:42:16,000
some other question marks about him, but tremendous upside, and

849
00:42:16,039 --> 00:42:17,760
they will just take that player every time. And that's

850
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,920
what they've done and that's why they have such a

851
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,960
good system. Nikeishin was a twenty twenty third round pick,

852
00:42:24,079 --> 00:42:27,599
six sixteen pounds, will be twenty three this season, one

853
00:42:27,679 --> 00:42:30,679
more season with Scott Saint Pete. He's unlikely to be

854
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,239
let go earlier like some of the other players we've seen,

855
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,880
like Mitchkoff. He is the captain of SKA, so there's

856
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,039
no way they're letting him go. He's a really important

857
00:42:39,039 --> 00:42:41,159
part of that team. He has said that he wants

858
00:42:41,199 --> 00:42:45,880
to come over to North America, but we have to

859
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:46,559
wait another.

860
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:46,760
Speaker 2: Year for that.

861
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,039
Speaker 4: His FHL player card shows how outstanding he is. His

862
00:42:51,159 --> 00:42:55,239
hits per sixty, elite shots per sixty, elite blocks per

863
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,880
sixty well above average, so overall he looks like he's

864
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,079
going to be an absolute East and Bash and his

865
00:43:01,159 --> 00:43:03,840
scoring is also really high as well. He had fifty

866
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,480
six points in sixty seven games after fifty five and

867
00:43:06,559 --> 00:43:10,920
sixty five last year, so two seasons approaching that point

868
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,760
per game mark. It's been pretty fantastic for Nikisha, and

869
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,079
you look at all his other underlying numbers and everything

870
00:43:16,159 --> 00:43:20,880
looks great for him. He looks just absolutely incredible and

871
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,320
I'm sure fantasy gms can't wait for him to come

872
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,960
over so he can step into that top power play

873
00:43:27,039 --> 00:43:30,440
that it seems like is going to be open for him. Certainly,

874
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,159
we're seeing we already talked about bren Burns kind of

875
00:43:34,199 --> 00:43:38,440
sundowning and we've seen We'll see what happens with Gosta Spair,

876
00:43:38,519 --> 00:43:40,599
but I'm not sure he'll be a massive hurdle or

877
00:43:40,639 --> 00:43:42,599
any other guys that are on the team when Nikisha

878
00:43:42,679 --> 00:43:44,679
is ready. So we're all really excited for that. But

879
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,480
to hear a little bit more about Nikisha, and let's

880
00:43:46,519 --> 00:43:47,679
hear from our FHL.

881
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:52,199
Speaker 2: Scout Scouting report today from our FAHL Scout tim for

882
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:57,440
nikishin skating, powerful stride, strong balance and stability that facilitates

883
00:43:57,519 --> 00:44:01,400
excellent speed both in straight lines and in his overall

884
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:05,159
mobility on the ice. Strong edgework makes him incredibly effective

885
00:44:05,159 --> 00:44:08,800
at avoiding four checkers. Very efficient with his skating head

886
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,960
up looking for the long outlet pass, which was delivered

887
00:44:12,079 --> 00:44:15,360
with pace and accuracy. Used one touch pass regularly to

888
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,599
quickly move the puck to the teammates, so passing and handling,

889
00:44:18,679 --> 00:44:22,039
he remains composed with a puck, not rushing plays, instead

890
00:44:22,119 --> 00:44:24,480
waiting for the right moment to make a pass or

891
00:44:24,519 --> 00:44:28,119
take a shot. Shooting has a cannon of the slap

892
00:44:28,199 --> 00:44:31,000
shot one timer, but does not relieve it and release

893
00:44:31,039 --> 00:44:33,880
it as often as Tim would like. He would often

894
00:44:34,159 --> 00:44:36,639
use a risk shot to get the puck to the net.

895
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,920
On a couple of occasions, took low percentage shots after

896
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,199
skating the puck deep into the zone on the wing

897
00:44:42,599 --> 00:44:47,039
when better options were available. Iq ability to anticipate the

898
00:44:47,079 --> 00:44:51,199
opponent's moves allows him to react quickly and make smart decisions,

899
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,360
whether it's stepping up to challenge a forward or dropping

900
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:58,800
back to cover a potential threat. Exhibits excellent defensive positioning,

901
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,079
always seeming to be in the right plays, Incredibly poised

902
00:45:02,119 --> 00:45:05,199
with the puck, will draw four checkers in before making

903
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:11,119
beautiful outlet passes, creating space for teammates for checking. Regularly

904
00:45:11,159 --> 00:45:14,119
fell back into a defensive posture to allow us forwards

905
00:45:14,199 --> 00:45:16,400
the freedom to stay strong on the puck, stood up

906
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:21,280
players trying to enter the zone, causing frequent turnovers. Defense

907
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:26,519
absolute playkiller anticipates encounters attacking players, stopping them in their tracks,

908
00:45:27,039 --> 00:45:31,079
consistent and reliable, retrieves the puck quickly and starts effective

909
00:45:31,079 --> 00:45:34,920
breakouts with smart passes, uses his size and strength to

910
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:39,519
separate opponents from the puck, and excellent stick work. So

911
00:45:39,679 --> 00:45:42,519
the best asset here was the defensive awareness and positioning,

912
00:45:42,599 --> 00:45:45,800
which allows them to be highly effective in shutting down

913
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:50,480
opposing forwards, maintaining solid defensive coverage, and making smart plays

914
00:45:50,599 --> 00:45:53,840
under pressure. The biggest concern was that shot selection would

915
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,480
like to see more bombs from the point and avoid

916
00:45:56,559 --> 00:45:58,440
shots into the side of the net from deep in

917
00:45:58,519 --> 00:46:02,760
the zone. Tier roll or potential is top of the

918
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,360
line fifty plus point scorer, and that's because he's going

919
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,719
to eat minutes at an NHL level, has the tools

920
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,559
envisioned to quarterback of power play, and he'll rack up hits,

921
00:46:13,039 --> 00:46:16,599
shots and blocks. On top of that. The median outcome

922
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,960
thirty plus point score with above average or elite bash

923
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,920
that's what happens when he still eats minutes, but the

924
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:28,519
production doesn't suffer or suffers because he's not afforded the

925
00:46:28,559 --> 00:46:30,480
top power play or he's used in a more shut

926
00:46:30,559 --> 00:46:34,559
down roll. The stylist and comparable here Victor Hedman an

927
00:46:34,679 --> 00:46:38,800
excellent skating, strong physical play, smart decision making with a puck,

928
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:43,360
can play in all three zones and overall. Tim says

929
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,440
any concerns about his skating that had him fall in

930
00:46:45,519 --> 00:46:48,679
this drive class have long since been addressed. An absolute

931
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,519
stud in all facets of the game. And our friend

932
00:46:52,599 --> 00:46:55,400
Mason Black, the NHL rank king, put out the pole

933
00:46:55,599 --> 00:47:00,639
Alexander nikeishin versus recent number two overall picks own Nemech.

934
00:47:01,039 --> 00:47:04,360
Nikishan is no match for Animach. It's fifty seven point

935
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,400
five to forty two point five. Victor sounds like you're

936
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,199
a big fan of Nikish and I don't know that

937
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:13,480
Nemach has always been your cup of tea. Which one

938
00:47:13,519 --> 00:47:14,599
of these two do you like best?

939
00:47:15,639 --> 00:47:18,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely Nikkeishan better. I've always been a bit

940
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:22,000
skeptical of Nemish just in terms of how much offense

941
00:47:22,039 --> 00:47:24,239
he's gonna produce. I've always thought he's a really good

942
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,440
all around player, and this season, we saw nineteen points

943
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,800
in sixty games. That's pretty good in the NHL. Obviously,

944
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:32,960
they have a lot of other options there in terms

945
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,400
of guys that can run the power play and do offense.

946
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,000
So I think that's really good for an imach and

947
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:44,159
not no complaining about his progress there. But I absolutely

948
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,920
am gonna go with nikish In here. I don't think

949
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,159
that's gonna surprise anybody. But he just has everything. He

950
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:56,320
has the bash, he has the scoring, he's got the

951
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,800
pro experience. I guess Nimah does have a little bit now,

952
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,480
but Nikishin I think just has everything that I think

953
00:48:02,599 --> 00:48:05,320
is going to make him even more solid. You look

954
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:09,079
at Knemich and his blocks this season was really good

955
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,960
and the games played he had well over a block

956
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,000
per game approaching too. His hits were pretty low though,

957
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,519
and his shots were pretty low, and those were his

958
00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:19,199
first sixty games. So I'm not sure how much we

959
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,639
can read into that for Nimitz, but I just think

960
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:26,119
that he's not as offensively dynamic, doesn't have quite the

961
00:48:26,199 --> 00:48:29,239
qualities that Nikisha does. So I think you look at

962
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:33,159
the PNHLE right now, especially based on the Utica, and

963
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,719
it looks like Knimich is higher, but the KHL being

964
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,199
a really difficult league and him having such a strong role,

965
00:48:39,519 --> 00:48:41,719
I think you got to go in Nikishin, and then

966
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:44,719
the Bash to support is just out of this world.

967
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,840
I'm really excited for that. Nikishin's point production looks really strong,

968
00:48:49,519 --> 00:48:52,119
and I don't think there's too much to be concerned about.

969
00:48:52,199 --> 00:48:54,360
You look at the hockey prospecting between the two, though,

970
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,639
and it is really low for Nikishin. Part of the

971
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,800
reason here that it looks so low is that he

972
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:03,199
had a few two three, actually really low seasons in

973
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,840
the KHL, and then his offensive explosion came later. So

974
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,840
I know in Byron's model, if that happens, it tends

975
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,679
not to look too favorably upon you. But I wouldn't

976
00:49:13,679 --> 00:49:15,880
really worry too much about that. So Nemicch really did

977
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,360
have strong production in his Draft minus one and Draft season,

978
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,320
and then pretty good HL and NHL production, So his

979
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,920
star potential remains way higher eighty four percent to Nikishin

980
00:49:26,079 --> 00:49:29,000
seven in this model. But I think that's a little

981
00:49:29,039 --> 00:49:31,760
misleading because even though he took a while to get

982
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:34,039
to this point, he's done it two years in a row.

983
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:38,599
He's not rocking crazy, insane shooting percentages. I think Nikishin

984
00:49:38,679 --> 00:49:40,320
really is the real deal, is she's just a little

985
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,960
bit of a late bloomer. Those do actually happen. Pretty

986
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,280
confident in that looking at some of the other comps

987
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,480
for Nikishin in the hockey prospecting but there aren't a

988
00:49:47,519 --> 00:49:49,440
whole lot that turn into stars. But one of them

989
00:49:49,519 --> 00:49:52,480
who looks really close to him is Chris Chelios, and

990
00:49:52,559 --> 00:49:54,719
so I don't know that he'll be quite Chris Chilios level,

991
00:49:55,159 --> 00:49:58,519
but that is one there are some proof of concept

992
00:49:58,559 --> 00:50:01,440
guys that look like him. And this is interesting because

993
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:05,039
the Jfresh Card we typically see as a really conservative

994
00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:09,000
version of these projection models, and it absolutely loves nikishon

995
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,480
ninety eight percent chance of being a star one hundred

996
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,519
percent chance of being a full time NHLer. For those

997
00:50:15,559 --> 00:50:17,199
of you that listen to this show for a long time,

998
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,800
you know that you never see numbers like that in

999
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,760
the J Fresh Card. They're always super pessimistic and super

1000
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:26,599
low in. But here's an example where I think it's

1001
00:50:26,639 --> 00:50:29,559
bang on, and I think that there really is a

1002
00:50:29,639 --> 00:50:32,079
lot of reasons for Evy going to be really excited

1003
00:50:32,079 --> 00:50:37,280
about Nikishin. So yeah, I definitely believe the j Fresh

1004
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,840
card here more than the hockey prospecting, and I would

1005
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:44,599
definitely take Nikishin pretty much over any other prospect defenseman

1006
00:50:44,639 --> 00:50:48,320
at this point. He's just so well rounded and so

1007
00:50:48,679 --> 00:50:51,480
for sure to be a top producer based on what

1008
00:50:51,599 --> 00:50:53,519
he's already doing in a really difficult lead.

1009
00:50:53,639 --> 00:50:59,119
Speaker 2: Jesse, Yes, indeed, who is your need to know prospect

1010
00:50:59,159 --> 00:50:59,800
for Carolina?

1011
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,320
Speaker 4: I was also so excited about this guy I couldn't

1012
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,519
help mentioning him earlier on this show as well, and

1013
00:51:04,639 --> 00:51:07,559
that is Scott Morrow twenty twenty one, fortieth overall pick

1014
00:51:07,599 --> 00:51:10,400
sixty two hundred ninety four pounds, right handed, D twenty two.

1015
00:51:10,679 --> 00:51:13,719
This season, he was drafted at the US prep school

1016
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,719
at Shattock Saint Mary, but he's played the last three

1017
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:20,679
seasons in the NCUBLEA for UMass similar production all three seasons,

1018
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:22,599
even played a couple of NHL games. As I mentioned,

1019
00:51:22,639 --> 00:51:26,119
this season did not look out of place in the NCUBLEA.

1020
00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,760
His FHL player card shows that he shoots a ton

1021
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:33,239
per sixty one of the top shooters in the NCUBLEA.

1022
00:51:33,639 --> 00:51:37,480
Hits were also seventieth percentile blocks fortieth percentile, so overall

1023
00:51:37,519 --> 00:51:39,000
he looks like a really strong basher.

1024
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 5: His goals and.

1025
00:51:40,039 --> 00:51:42,679
Speaker 4: Assists also look really high for this league, so overall

1026
00:51:43,199 --> 00:51:45,599
he looks like he could be a really strong peripheral

1027
00:51:45,639 --> 00:51:48,119
contributor and points contributor. You look at some of the

1028
00:51:48,159 --> 00:51:51,800
other underlying metrics, really good transition game, high danger chances,

1029
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,280
and puckwork. The play driving is a little bit more

1030
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:57,000
average for Morrow, but let's hear a little bit more

1031
00:51:57,039 --> 00:51:59,400
about Scott Moore from FHL Scout.

1032
00:52:01,079 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 2: Yes and it's Tims this time. Skating, Marrow possesses excellent

1033
00:52:06,159 --> 00:52:09,000
straight line speed. His agility and edgework allow him to

1034
00:52:09,119 --> 00:52:12,920
navigate tight spaces to avoid opponents. He's strong on his skates.

1035
00:52:13,039 --> 00:52:16,800
Good balance allows him to maintain control when challenged Physically

1036
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:21,639
passing and handling, he makes long, accurate crisp passes both

1037
00:52:21,679 --> 00:52:24,920
short and long, which help transition the play and setting

1038
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:29,840
up offensive opportunities. Marrow has a powerful and accurate shot

1039
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,360
and shows very good decision making with his shot choices.

1040
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,840
IQ A high IQ player, Marrow's vision allows him to

1041
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,039
find teammates with precision. He displays a high level of

1042
00:52:41,119 --> 00:52:44,400
poise and composure when handling the puck. Doesn't rush plays

1043
00:52:44,599 --> 00:52:47,400
often makes smart decisions waiting for the right moment to

1044
00:52:47,519 --> 00:52:52,079
pass or shoot. For checking, Marrow evades four checkers well

1045
00:52:52,679 --> 00:52:56,159
through strength and excellent skating skills, often draws players to

1046
00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:00,719
him and then finds open teammates up the ice. For defense,

1047
00:53:01,119 --> 00:53:04,440
has very good gap control, uses his stick well. However,

1048
00:53:04,559 --> 00:53:07,840
at times lacks anticipation and can misread the play or

1049
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,880
miss a switch in coverage. So the best ass set

1050
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:15,039
for tomorrow, Tims says. He effortlessly completes his breakout passes,

1051
00:53:15,119 --> 00:53:18,199
leads the rush in his own, generates opportunities due to

1052
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,559
his skating, but the biggest concern breakdowns and coverage. A

1053
00:53:21,639 --> 00:53:24,599
steady partner mentor would be a big help tomorrow at

1054
00:53:24,679 --> 00:53:29,199
the NHL level, So the top tier outcome fifty plus

1055
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:33,000
points scorer, says Tims. That's because of the excellent offensive

1056
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,400
skills and ability to quarterback a power play at a

1057
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,840
high level that could have him racking up the points.

1058
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,800
The fiftieth percentile outcome may be something like a thirty

1059
00:53:42,159 --> 00:53:45,920
plus point scorer with above average or elite bash. If

1060
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,880
defensive lapses limit ice time or he's not given power

1061
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:54,599
play one, the points could suffer. Stylistic comparable Dougie Hamilton

1062
00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:59,039
and the final thought already e lit offensive threat, upping

1063
00:54:00,199 --> 00:54:03,320
Marrow's physicality and defensive awareness would help him reach his

1064
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:08,159
full potential. Mason Black. The NHL ranking is on a

1065
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:12,400
let's compare people to New Jersey Devil's high defenseman kick

1066
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:16,400
because up next at Scott Morrow versus Seamus Casey and

1067
00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,880
Casey's two zero devils Now because he wins over Scott

1068
00:54:21,039 --> 00:54:24,519
Morrow fifty three point six to forty six point four victor,

1069
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,559
is that the way you order these two?

1070
00:54:27,679 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1071
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,039
Speaker 4: I think this is funny. Every time it seems like

1072
00:54:31,559 --> 00:54:34,559
people are voting for the Devil's defenseman, but every time

1073
00:54:34,639 --> 00:54:37,360
I'm going to choose the Kines defenseman. I think that

1074
00:54:38,079 --> 00:54:41,320
Casey is a really interesting example, and we've seen him

1075
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:45,320
do really well in a couple different situations. We saw

1076
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,800
him perform really well in Michigan. We saw him do

1077
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,360
well at the UA teens. I'm really curious to see

1078
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,079
how he's going to do in the AHLO because he

1079
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,880
is an undersized defenseman that don't that isn't as good defensively,

1080
00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:59,239
and we talked about that with some of the other guys.

1081
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,599
Moro doesn't have those question marks. He's a big guy,

1082
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,320
he's right handed d sixty two hundred and ninety four pounds,

1083
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,920
and he really competes hard and he's really good in

1084
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:09,960
his own zone, so I think he's going to have

1085
00:55:10,119 --> 00:55:14,719
a lot more leeway to get good opportunities. Casey, on

1086
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,519
the other hand, needs a little bit more of a

1087
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:21,719
good situation for him. Potentially a strong partner might need

1088
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:23,719
to play more of a depth role. So I'm a

1089
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:27,039
little skeptical that Seamus Casey can hit his pnhle of

1090
00:55:27,159 --> 00:55:29,840
almost ninety plus. I'm not so sure about that more.

1091
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,320
On the other hand, I feel pretty confident he can

1092
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:36,079
be closer to that fifty ish forty to fifty point

1093
00:55:36,119 --> 00:55:39,880
defenseman depending on the right role in situation. So I

1094
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,880
would definitely rather have Moro. Also, Casey being in that

1095
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:46,639
system with so many good offensive defensemen, I almost feel

1096
00:55:46,679 --> 00:55:48,719
like he needs to go somewhere else to really flourish,

1097
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,920
and maybe New Jersey will facilitate that. We saw them

1098
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:55,519
already move Alex Holtz, who had other issues. But I

1099
00:55:55,559 --> 00:55:57,360
don't think that they're going to be too worried about

1100
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:01,079
moving players if they if they feel like it's going

1101
00:56:01,159 --> 00:56:03,079
to benefit them, and I think Casey is a piece

1102
00:56:03,119 --> 00:56:05,400
that could be appealing to some other teams. So I

1103
00:56:05,519 --> 00:56:08,320
definitely would rather take Moro between these two. Though when

1104
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:10,639
you look at the Hockey prospecting it is actually similar.

1105
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,519
Moro starting at nine percent and moving up to thirty

1106
00:56:13,559 --> 00:56:16,559
six percent chance of being a star, he looks great.

1107
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,840
Casey has also increased his star potential, which is both

1108
00:56:20,039 --> 00:56:22,320
depressive for both these guys because that's usually not the

1109
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,119
case in the Hockey prospect model tends to trend down,

1110
00:56:26,159 --> 00:56:28,159
but Casey up to forty one percent chance of being

1111
00:56:28,199 --> 00:56:31,000
a star, and the NHL are probability a little bit

1112
00:56:31,079 --> 00:56:33,440
higher for Casey actually seventy five percent and sixty one

1113
00:56:33,519 --> 00:56:37,400
for Morow. Looking at some other comps for Scott Morrow,

1114
00:56:38,039 --> 00:56:40,880
there's some interesting ones in here. One I think that

1115
00:56:41,159 --> 00:56:43,880
looks pretty similar is Josh Morrisey. I think that could

1116
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:47,519
be a similar outcome. Actually, Moro's equivalencies right now looks

1117
00:56:47,519 --> 00:56:51,199
stronger than Morrissey's, but obviously we've seen Morrissey being a

1118
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,360
really excellent NHL defender and more so has to prove that.

1119
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,400
But I think that's someone that a realistic outcome of

1120
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,199
who he could be. Similar to looking at the Jay

1121
00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,079
Fresh card, this is sort of the opposite of the

1122
00:57:02,159 --> 00:57:06,159
Alex ni kishin where more Jay Fresh is really skeptical

1123
00:57:06,199 --> 00:57:08,519
on Scott Moral just one percent chance of being a star,

1124
00:57:08,599 --> 00:57:11,079
forty two percent chance of being an NHLer. I find

1125
00:57:11,119 --> 00:57:13,360
that kind of interesting because even though he started out

1126
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,360
in high school, he has raised his equivalency a lot

1127
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,559
and done really well in college, and so I'm surprised

1128
00:57:18,599 --> 00:57:21,519
that there isn't more belief there. But forty two percent

1129
00:57:21,599 --> 00:57:23,519
chance of being in NHLer. I guess that's a reasonable

1130
00:57:23,639 --> 00:57:25,960
chance of being and and nchl are just not the

1131
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:26,920
big star potential.

1132
00:57:27,079 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 5: So that's it.

1133
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,639
Speaker 4: On Morrow, I really like him. I think a lot

1134
00:57:29,679 --> 00:57:32,639
of people are not giving him enough respect. I think

1135
00:57:32,719 --> 00:57:35,239
he's actually a really strong interesting prospect.

1136
00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 2: Jesse, Yes, indeed, And we got to have at least

1137
00:57:40,039 --> 00:57:42,679
one forward here, Victor. Who's your keep your eye on prospect?

1138
00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, you might keep your eye as Bradley Nadou twenty

1139
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:49,440
twenty three, thirtieth overall pick, five hundred and seventy two pounds,

1140
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:52,159
right shot wing. He'll be nineteen all of this season,

1141
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,000
really young for his draft year. May fifth is his birthdate.

1142
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:57,760
He had forty five goals in fifty four games in

1143
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:03,119
the BCCHL for Penticton and draft season. That scoring translated

1144
00:58:03,159 --> 00:58:06,199
pretty well to Maine of the NCUBLEA he had where

1145
00:58:06,239 --> 00:58:09,400
he had forty six points in thirty seven games, nineteen

1146
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:11,559
of them being goals, just over half a goal per game.

1147
00:58:11,599 --> 00:58:15,840
It's pretty incredible for a very young teenager in the NCUBLEA,

1148
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:18,400
not as big of a volume shooter as you would expect.

1149
00:58:18,599 --> 00:58:20,519
He had two point eight shots per game, which isn't

1150
00:58:20,519 --> 00:58:22,960
too bad, but twenty five percent shooting is cooking a

1151
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,840
little hot. He also shot twenty one percent in Penticton

1152
00:58:26,079 --> 00:58:28,159
that last years. Maybe he's a guy that can rock

1153
00:58:28,159 --> 00:58:30,920
a pretty high shooting percentage, but he's not going to

1154
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,639
shoot twenty five percent for his career in the NTL.

1155
00:58:33,719 --> 00:58:36,320
No one's ever done that, so he's going to probably

1156
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,639
look to maybe take ten to fifteen percent off of

1157
00:58:39,679 --> 00:58:42,360
that and we'll see. He is a really good shooter though,

1158
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:44,800
so he probably can have a little bit higher than average,

1159
00:58:45,159 --> 00:58:47,159
but it remains to be seen how much higher than

1160
00:58:47,199 --> 00:58:51,400
average is reasonable for him. Looking at Bradley Nadou's FHL

1161
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,079
player card, all of it looks really good except for

1162
00:58:54,159 --> 00:58:56,239
his blocks, which are a little bit below average, but

1163
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,599
his hits and shots are pretty good, leaving him as

1164
00:58:59,639 --> 00:59:02,280
a set twenty eighth percentile for bash as a total,

1165
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:04,880
and his goals and assists as you would expect, are

1166
00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,280
really high. Other underlying metrics are good though a lot

1167
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:10,800
of times these goal scorers, they have really poor transition

1168
00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:14,239
numbers and high danger and puckwork. But he's actually excellent

1169
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,440
across the board at all this underlying metrics.

1170
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:17,559
Speaker 5: So I really like to see that.

1171
00:59:18,199 --> 00:59:20,239
Speaker 4: But let's hear a little bit more about our fecto

1172
00:59:20,519 --> 00:59:23,239
about Bradley Nadae from my FRL scout Tim.

1173
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:28,760
Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, Tim says this of Bradley Nadeau skating proficient.

1174
00:59:29,039 --> 00:59:33,519
It's not a standout element of Nadeau's game. Passing and handling,

1175
00:59:33,639 --> 00:59:36,159
he excels and maintaining control of the puck and tight

1176
00:59:36,239 --> 00:59:40,760
spaces allowing him to maneuver around defenders create opportunities even

1177
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:44,760
when under pressure. Nada's creativity allows him to make unexpected

1178
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,760
and innovative passes, catching opponents off guard and creating high

1179
00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:52,679
quality scoring chances for shooting. This is where things get exciting.

1180
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,920
Tim says, the puck explodes off of Bradley's stick. Not

1181
00:59:57,159 --> 00:59:59,559
only is his shot strong, but he's very deceptive with

1182
00:59:59,639 --> 01:00:02,159
it and quick releases and curl and drag moves to

1183
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:07,159
change angles. Truly elite shooter IQ. His ability to replays

1184
01:00:07,239 --> 01:00:10,559
before they fully develop allows him to position himself effectively

1185
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:14,360
and make excellent decisions. It often appears as though the

1186
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,280
play is going on around him while he positions himself

1187
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:22,039
in the optimal spot for an offensive chance. For checking,

1188
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:26,119
no co consistently applies pressure on the opposing defenseman tries

1189
01:00:26,199 --> 01:00:29,480
to force turnovers. His ability to adjust his fore checking

1190
01:00:29,559 --> 01:00:32,760
strategy based on his opponent's style of play helps him

1191
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,920
to be more effective and on defense, his efforts in

1192
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:39,760
backchecking and ability to support defensive breakouts or positive traits.

1193
01:00:40,039 --> 01:00:43,760
But improving his defensive zone coverage and physicality will enhance

1194
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:49,000
his overall effectiveness. So the best asset shot deceptive, accurate

1195
01:00:49,119 --> 01:00:53,599
in an absolute rocket. Biggest concern his physicality is limited

1196
01:00:53,719 --> 01:00:57,320
by his size. Top tier outcome here point per game

1197
01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:01,119
plus score, says Tims, and that's because his shot in

1198
01:01:01,159 --> 01:01:02,880
Hockey IQ give him all the tools to being a

1199
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:06,199
lead scorer in the NHL. But the media outcome here

1200
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:10,159
maybe something more around forty plus points score. Tidy, tighter

1201
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:14,119
checking and faster pace in the NHL may limit his

1202
01:01:14,239 --> 01:01:19,280
ability to set up soft areas stylistic comparable Cole Kawfield

1203
01:01:19,679 --> 01:01:22,519
and Tim's final thought here could watch him shoot all day?

1204
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:28,320
Truly a delight to watch, Yeah, Mason Black. The NHL

1205
01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:32,800
Rankings sent out this poll Bradley Nadeau versus Sasha Why there,

1206
01:01:33,519 --> 01:01:37,440
and Nadeau comes out easily ahead in this contest if

1207
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:39,800
you can call well at that sixty eight to thirty

1208
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:43,119
two percent victor, Is that the way you vote?

1209
01:01:44,239 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is, and this is going to be a

1210
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,440
clean sweep for the Carolina prospects. I agreed with them

1211
01:01:49,519 --> 01:01:51,480
on this one with the fans and not on the

1212
01:01:51,519 --> 01:01:55,000
other two. But either way, I definitely like this one.

1213
01:01:55,119 --> 01:01:55,679
Speaker 5: I like Bab.

1214
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,400
Speaker 4: I think he's fine, he's good, he has some really

1215
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:02,559
good potential. He's obviously just coming straight out of being drafted,

1216
01:02:02,719 --> 01:02:05,800
so we don't know as much. I think you have

1217
01:02:06,039 --> 01:02:08,760
to be super impressed with what Nadeau did. Going from

1218
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:12,199
the BHL to the nc DOUBLEA is practically as hard

1219
01:02:12,199 --> 01:02:14,559
as going from the NCAA straight to the NHL. Like

1220
01:02:14,679 --> 01:02:16,519
it's really that's massive leaps.

1221
01:02:17,039 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 5: And so he did great and.

1222
01:02:19,679 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 4: Not only did he score a lot, but I think

1223
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:23,800
he really rounded out his game to make it more

1224
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:26,039
pro ready, and we saw that with him getting the

1225
01:02:26,119 --> 01:02:29,239
NOD to be to getting some NHL games and being

1226
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:33,000
really close to being NHL ready probably some ANHL time.

1227
01:02:33,039 --> 01:02:35,840
But he also has a very specific skill set that

1228
01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:40,039
I don't think anyone on Carolina really has that true

1229
01:02:40,119 --> 01:02:42,559
sniper that can score from anywhere. I really think this

1230
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,800
is a really important piece that the team really is

1231
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:47,599
going to need. And we talked. We heard Ryan say

1232
01:02:47,679 --> 01:02:49,559
there's some spots there in the middle six. I think

1233
01:02:49,599 --> 01:02:50,719
that could be in a do and I think that

1234
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:53,880
might surprise some people, especially if he has some really

1235
01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:57,599
good linemates to help drive the play if he's playing

1236
01:02:57,679 --> 01:02:59,840
with NHS or cucking me. I guess it really depends

1237
01:02:59,880 --> 01:03:02,199
on what happens with Natchez. If he leaves, then that

1238
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:04,920
will be two holes in the lineup, and maybe that's

1239
01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:06,880
a little bit more difficult for a goal scorer like

1240
01:03:07,039 --> 01:03:09,440
Nadau to break. But I like him a lot. I

1241
01:03:09,519 --> 01:03:13,679
definitely would take him. The PNHL also supports that seventy

1242
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:15,960
five to sixty two. But also if you look at

1243
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:18,159
the Hockey Prospect and you can see that Nadeau went

1244
01:03:18,239 --> 01:03:20,400
from twenty one to forty six percent. That kind of

1245
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,239
increase is so difficult to do year to year. You

1246
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,119
have to really blow the doors off, and that's really

1247
01:03:25,159 --> 01:03:28,440
what Nadeau did, and his NHL R probability is up

1248
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:32,840
to sixty six percent. Boavert I was similar, actually a

1249
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:35,239
little bit better than Nadeau in his draft season based

1250
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,920
on his production. So there's still some potential for some

1251
01:03:38,039 --> 01:03:40,800
great growth here. Looking at some other comps for Nadau,

1252
01:03:41,239 --> 01:03:43,239
there's some interesting ones here, none of them that I

1253
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,840
think fit terribly perfectly. There's a Martin Havlatt, there, some

1254
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,800
Jordan Stahl, Barret Hayden. I don't think he is going

1255
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:51,400
to be that type of player. Also don't know that

1256
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:53,360
he's going to be an Alex Newhook type of player,

1257
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,159
but I think that kind of fits a little bit more.

1258
01:03:55,239 --> 01:03:57,760
Both these guys were BCHL players. That's why I picked

1259
01:03:57,840 --> 01:04:03,119
him and went BCCHLBCHL to NCAA. But it looks like

1260
01:04:03,199 --> 01:04:05,159
nado is going to be done with that and move

1261
01:04:05,239 --> 01:04:09,000
on to HL NHL. But you can see that the

1262
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:12,000
production for new Hook was actually steady and then trend

1263
01:04:12,039 --> 01:04:13,719
it down and for Nadoh it's moved up so I

1264
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:15,840
think there's more upside than the new hook, but it's

1265
01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,599
an interesting comparable. Barn Havlat might be someone that he's

1266
01:04:18,599 --> 01:04:22,000
a little bit more like upside wise, and he was

1267
01:04:22,039 --> 01:04:24,079
obviously a star producer, so you like to see that

1268
01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:27,679
the jfreshcard nine percent chance of being a star fifty

1269
01:04:27,679 --> 01:04:30,559
two percent chance of being an NHLer. So there's some

1270
01:04:30,639 --> 01:04:33,840
pretty good potential there for Nado and this overall, this

1271
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,599
system Bike for Carolina is just awesome and there's some

1272
01:04:36,679 --> 01:04:39,039
really good guys coming and there's a lot of depth

1273
01:04:39,079 --> 01:04:42,000
to the system too. So that's it for Thistig for Carolina.

1274
01:04:42,079 --> 01:04:43,400
If you're a patron, you can listen to my top

1275
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,800
ten Patren Prospect week on Patreon. If you're just going

1276
01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:49,440
to do some scouting, shoot me a DM on Twitter, Discord,

1277
01:04:49,599 --> 01:04:50,360
or email.

1278
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:53,920
Speaker 2: And we'll be right back to close up the show.

1279
01:05:04,679 --> 01:05:06,840
A couple of things to mention before we get out

1280
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:08,679
of here today. One is our show's brought to you

1281
01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,920
by fan Tracks. You can play all your leagues at

1282
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,639
fan tracks, all your different sports at fan Tracks. There

1283
01:05:14,679 --> 01:05:17,480
is more customization than you're gonna get anywhere else. I

1284
01:05:17,599 --> 01:05:21,079
know right now we're gonna be in rookie draft Heaven,

1285
01:05:21,239 --> 01:05:23,760
come August, and let me tell you, I don't know

1286
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:25,840
where else you're gonna do it this way because we

1287
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:29,400
can set up the draft to just have rookies in it,

1288
01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:32,760
or you can just have this year's draftees and guys

1289
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,800
who are under a certain minors limit. Do whatever you want.

1290
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:39,039
We don't care. And it's just a matter of hooking

1291
01:05:39,119 --> 01:05:40,800
up a couple of settings and you can get that

1292
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:42,639
kind of a draft room. It's not easy to do

1293
01:05:43,519 --> 01:05:47,840
in other platforms. Fan Tracs HQ of course has a

1294
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,760
little bit of fantasy content there as well. All the

1295
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:54,840
different sports you can get. Fantasy hockey content will certainly

1296
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:59,639
be coming as the season grows closer. We have a

1297
01:05:59,719 --> 01:06:02,800
whole team right now that does this fantasy hockey life stuff.

1298
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:04,960
It's not just victor in myself, believe it or not.

1299
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:08,760
Content curator Kevin Adams helps these show sheets.

1300
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 5: I was just looking.

1301
01:06:10,239 --> 01:06:13,960
Speaker 2: Today's show sheet is seventy six pages long. I don't

1302
01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:17,119
even know what to say about that. That's the notes

1303
01:06:17,199 --> 01:06:19,480
that we use, the stats. We have pictures in your

1304
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:23,840
patrons get to look at this. We have the tidy leagues,

1305
01:06:24,039 --> 01:06:27,960
which are enormous and are really bubbling at this time

1306
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:32,159
of year, and thanks thank goodness for the commissioner team

1307
01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:35,920
of Brian Simone, Kraftzer and Tim who are doing a

1308
01:06:36,039 --> 01:06:39,360
ton of work to make those things go off. Jeremy

1309
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:42,199
Vee is our lead scout. You've heard the scouting reports

1310
01:06:42,519 --> 01:06:45,599
and more to come. Jason helps with the prospect ranks.

1311
01:06:45,639 --> 01:06:46,960
This is the time of year you want to know

1312
01:06:47,079 --> 01:06:49,599
about those prospect ranks because your drafts are a coming.

1313
01:06:50,159 --> 01:06:52,639
Brandon is the website guru as well as a scout,

1314
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:56,760
helps with the prospect ranks and visualizations at Fantasyhockeylife dot com.

1315
01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:01,079
You've seen the cool player cards and Victor is always

1316
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,880
hyping those things up. If you've got skills you'd like

1317
01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:07,519
to lend the show, why didn't you find Victor? Victor

1318
01:07:07,599 --> 01:07:10,360
has always got it a crazy idea for another cool

1319
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,559
thing to do. You can find him in our discord
