Ian’s improvement over the past few years has been quite dramatic. Physically he has all of the tools for a long professional career, but his mental game / awareness has grown by leaps and bounds as well. We feel this has a lot to do with his coach at St. Mark’s, Carl Corazzini. Coach Corazzini was a captain at Boston University, an NCAA All-American and played in the NHL. There is no doubt that he has been an invaluable resource for Ian both on the ice and off.
One of the things that I like is his ability to get a whistle and settle things down when Calgary gets running around in their end. To me he shows great game awareness.
Brooklyn Kalmikov (3.75 Star Amateur Rating, NHL Grade — FREE AGENT) Forward High paced forward who is playing at over a point per game pace since his move to Victoriaville…
Ben is a hard nosed winger who plays his butt off every shift. He is an excellent F1 and excels at creating chaos on the fore-check while finishing every check with authority. He has a very active stick while shutting down passing lanes and we feel that he carries himself like a leader. He sets an
In a 4-2 loss to Dubuque Sam’s game line of 1 goal, 4 shots and a Plus/Minus of +1 looks pretty good. But what did we learn about his game awareness, skills, special teams potential and competitiveness? Let’s take a look at our game notes and find out.
We watched The Gamblers take on Team USA’s USNTDP U17 Team. It was a fairly even game with Team USA’s Ryan St. Louis scoring 2 goals and being named 1st…
(6) Release – Can shoot with his feet moving and is unpredictable. Nate has the ability to shoot through defenders legs while in tight areas and when playing the off-wing he has the accuracy try to go short side shelf from awkward angles. Nate is a dynamic player with the puck on his stick. He is unpredictable and can fire the puck quickly and accurately, yet has the soft hands to adjust his stick at the last second for back door passes.
Nathan Gaucher QMJHL game report: Quebec Remparts VS Halifax Mooseheads (2/29/20)
He is a smart player who reads his linemates well and consistently does the little things that help teams win. Riley is willing to block shots, take hits to make plays and he will play hard against the other team’s top players. These are all keys to a successful team, but why I really want to keep an eye
Parker is a high energy forward who parlayed a great start to his Freshman year on to a spot on Team USA’s World Junior Team. He was bypassed in last year’s NHL Draft, but we feel he will hear his name called before the 4th Round is over.
NHL Evaluation: Payton has great edge work and balance, as well as a powerful first step which allows him to be at top speed quickly. He has very good 1 on 1 puck skills. He uses his speed to generate scoring opportunities by
(10) Intangibles – He is a tough kid who can play through pain. Early in the season we saw Patrick take an errant stick to the face breaking his nose. There was blood all over his face, his jersey and the ice. He went to the bench, had his nose filled with stuffing and continued playing hard two way hockey. This seems like something every player should do, but we can tell you they don’t.
Intangibles – He is a 6’3″ 205lbs tough as nails right shot defenseman who is an assistant captain as an ’02 in the Western Hockey League. That pretty much tells you what type of player and person you will have on your depth chart after he joins your organization in June.
Any interest in an athletic 6’3″ 203LBS forward who can play in all situations?
(8) Body Language – After a big hit Zach doesn’t skate around looking for high fives.

The physical tools are all there for Dufour showing off a strong frame with good balance and strength on his feet.
We have no doubt that Carson will play NHL games, but with hard work and consistent dedication Carson has a chance to have an NHL career. You honestly can’t say that about everyone who gets drafted.
