Finn Brown – The Process

Get to Know, Junior, Prospects, Scouting Reports, U18

Finn is incredibly intriguing and NHL organizations will be paying attention. In early 2018 Finn was viewed as a simple raw 3.25 Star Amateur rated winger… 18 months later he has a 3.75 Star Rating, is trending in the right direction and is committed to RPI. NHL Development Coaches will drool over the opportunity of working with a prospect like this because the reward could be sky high.

2020 NHL Draft Right Wing Rankings

Prospects, Rankings, The Process

One of Ian’s best attributes having played in the NHL for a long time is knowing what it takes to play professional hockey at the highest levels. The grades separate who are the pros and who are the prospects. Ian gives an “A” grade to players he believes can play in the NHL by the time they are 21 years old. “A-” players are prospects who are likely to have NHL careers but may take another year or two to make it. B+ prospects are players with a chance at having an NHL career but are more likely 23 years old or older before they get their real chance. The “B” ranked prospects have a chance to make it to the NHL but will need to improve in order to have a career and the rest B- are draftable, late bloomer types who are likely to be drafted but unlikely to have an NHL career. C+ and down are players who have some NHL level attribute but need to develop the rest of their game to make it up the list.

Andrew DellaDonna – The Process

Get to Know, Junior, Keep an eye on, Prospects, The Process, USHL

Andrew was a damn good pick. He obviously put up some good numbers last season with Selects (41 goals, 75 points), but what has always stood out to me was his compete, and the impact he can have on a game even when he’s not on the score sheet. He’s not one of those players who you wonder about when the game is over… thinking back to if they played or not.

Logan Morrison – The Process

Get to Know, Junior, Keep an eye on, OHL, Prospects, Scouting Reports, The Process

Neutral Zone’s Paul O’Hagan says: Although he is not big, Logan is very strong in the corners and in front of the net. He does not initiate physical contact to create turnovers rather taking smart angles and using his strong hands to win puck battles. After taking possession of the puck Logan plays with his head up and has the vision to be a high level play maker. Our main area for concern as a top level NHL prospect is his speed. We know he will develop and get stronger, but we are still watching and trying to figure out if that added strength will transition to a more powerful stride.
