It's it's just you know it's catnip to these guys.

The same thing we were talking about with Sokolovsky earlier.

Uh so it is it is certainly, you know, with his skating being pretty good, not elite, but pretty good.

Uh there is certainly a projectable NHL role for him.

I don't think it's one of tremendous upside.

Uh, you know, you look like you said earlier, you're wondering, oh, junior points, you know, is he if he's not point per game, forget it.

Well, he wasn't point per game.

He had 42 points in 46 games.

Uh, and he was kind of, you know, not really a factor uh for the US in the U18 tournament last year.

Um, but but yeah, like it's a it's a big player with.

Pretty decent skating.

Uh he's not afraid of skating into contact, skating into pressure.

Um, but we're we're not seeing anything kind of remarkable from a playmaking standpoint at the OHL.

And I think you want, especially if you're thinking of a center with higher upside, um, you you want to see something a bit more than the just the basic.

And so I think, you know, the the real like the the big upside play here, if he can figure out the skill and if he can figure out uh, you know, how to how to use teammates better than he does, maybe you're looking at a Brock Nelson, but I think Michael McCarran, who, you know, signed that, I think it was like a three-year, three million dollar contract to be Minnesota's fourth line center, I think you're looking at that kind of guy, uh, Brooks Ragowski.

And so maybe he's competing, you know, it's the kind of thing where what what does Vancouver

Coover's bottom

six look like?

Like what do they want it to look like?

Do they want their fourth line to be this kind of rough and tough and rock'em sock 'em?
