BIRTHYEAR 1997-07-29 BIRTHPLACE Edmonton, AB, CAN AGE 18 NATION Canada POSITION D SHOOTS L HEIGHT 188 cm / 6'2" WEIGHT 84 kg / 185 lbs CONTRACT 18/19 NHL DRAFT 2015 round 2 #51 overall by Buffalo Sabres phiq.png 

 

A heads-up defenseman who can really take a beating and dish it out as well. Built like a tank; grueling play doesn't phase him. Calm, collected, and poised with the puck; great body and stick positioning without the puck. Reliable at both ends of the ice and can be trusted with a hefty amount of ice time. All-in-all, a defenseman who strives to be difficult to play against, consistently, with and without the puck. (Curtis Joe, EP 2015)

 

 

He has a few fights while at Prince Albert but after watching a couple I think he may want to talk to Razor for some help.

 

 

I apologize, I didn't mean to say finesse, I should have said puck moving offensive D.  You're right, he was a physical specimen at the combine last year.

I think then that Juolevi would be your choice as the top damn in this years draft. Can't say you would be wrong

 

Just by quickly looking at the testing results. I think we have to add 2 names to the list of 2nd round picks

 

1) Samuel Girard

2) Luke Green.

 

Both scored well in multiple tests - though I would say neither as good as Guhle did last year.

I would only move on to either of them if Dineen is off the board. He's at the top of my list right now for that 2nd round pick. Luke Green will probably go around where Dineen goes and I hope another team passes on Dineen for Green.  Girard is interesting but his size is a major concern. Good news is he did significantly up his production between year 1 and year 2. Also he is an assist machine with great skating. I still lean Dineen because he finished 2nd in points in the OHL as a rookie this year. A little undersized but his game just screams NHL to me.

 

Can you post a link to the combine results so we can take a look?

A small but industrious speedster that always seeks to be engaged in the play. Skates very well and has the shiftiness to avoid being rubbed out. Isn't afraid of physical play, but knows his role as an offensive catalyst and plays to his strengths. Excellent hands and hockey sense. Only knock is his size, but that doesn't impede his compete level. Possesses the fundamental skills and natural goal scoring instincts that make the players around him better. [EP] -

 

He did well at certain phyiscal tests at the combine, is ranked #88 so could fall to us in the 3rd round.   Is my sleeper and I think he would be a bargain in the 3rd round.

He was described to me as a "crazy little Italian guy." I'll let 11 figure out if it was D4rk or Taro who gave that description :P

 

 

I mean, I'm 5'8"; I'm not THAT little!  

 

I do, however, look exactly like the profile picture.

I've got you by an inch, short stuff!

 

Anywho, full mock draft from The Draft Analyst (a site I've really come to enjoy reading): http://www.thedraftanalyst.com/mock-drafts/2016-may-1st/

 

Has both Chychrun and Juolevi going before us, and we nab Nylander. I'll be an awfully happy man should that come to pass.
