Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

Yeah, Ethan Belkidz and...

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

Tyne and Lawrence are kind of – and even Wyatt Cullen are all on that next tier.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

You could add in Oscar Hemming and Maddox Dagenais.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

But in terms of what Ethan Belchez can bring is he's a 6'5 power forward that is skilled, has really good hockey IQ.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

When he played with Liam Greentree, you could just see it – see his production levels rise after his D-1 season.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

He was not a point-per-game player, and then this year scouts and people –

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

that are making these decisions and wanted to see him produce more.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

And he actually was a point per game player this year or above for Windsor, but you wanted to see him play in the playoffs and utilize the intensity and the physicality that he could bring, but he did get injured.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

So that was a little tough, but in terms of like what I see out of him, it's one of these powerful words like that you can put into your lineup and put them on the first line, second line or third line and really help just,

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

create havoc in front of the net, because that's one of the things that he's really good at.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

And he's, he has really good hands.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

So I think that he's going to be able to utilize that to put home a lot of rebounds in terms of like the last person we saw that did that was Porter Martone.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

And he's, he's doing pretty good in the NHL for his first stint.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

But in terms of like Ethan Belches versus Porter Martone, I think Porter Martone had a better shot, better playmaking, but Ethan Belches might be the better skater.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

So yeah,

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

There's definitely some upside there.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

With Tyne and Lawrence, you have a great, great defensive center that can use that defense and put pressure on opposing forwards to create those turnovers and can actually create scoring chances for his team because of the high hockey IQ, the playmaking ability as well.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

He didn't get to show that at BU, but he certainly did at the USHL with Muskegon Lumberjacks.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

Again, like Wyatt Cullen, this is a guy that was 5'5 during the NTDP evaluations.

Canucks Central
Manny Settling in Vancouver, 8 Days Until Draft Day

Now he's 6'1 and his growth plates are still live.
