He plays with confidence and seems comfortable jumping up into the play. His skating style looks a bit odd at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 He himself looks pretty formidable though. When he fills out he could be a tough kid. Seeing a lot “Drago’s son” tossed around lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralous Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Late to the thread and admittedly didn’t see much of any of these guys this year but regarding Rossi, drafting him seems like taking more of what we already have. Hell, the hockey news listed his best case projection to be “Nico Hischier.” Can’t just keep going after guys who all do the same thing. Toronto already tried that and they have a deeply flawed team despite all of the talent. Fitz seems to be doing a pretty good job of stocking the farm with guys with different skill sets. edit: reading back a page or two, Guadana kind of already made this point. I agree Edited October 10, 2020 by Lateralous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie has to respect a shot from someone like him looking right at the net. Puts it right on the shooter's stick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pumpkin cutter Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 So happy with the pick. Rossi will probably get more pts, but the last thing we need is fancy dangler passers. We desperately need someone who can bury the biscuit. Of course he could bust, but we have to be due for some good luck... right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guadana Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Great Mercer shift, but defesmen should neutralize him there. Anyway he is hell of a player. I think devs fans still dont understand what a player they got. Edited October 10, 2020 by Guadana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him play against Russia when they played in my town and i was more impressed with him than Lafreniere in that one game 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SterioDesign Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Mercer is #19 here Does a lot of things coaches love to see. Good backcheck, physical, quick smart pass out of his zone, joining the rush in transition, taking control and trying to deke.

Too bad Laf doesnt play tonight. Lapierre and Mercer looks better by a head today. Edited October 10, 2020 by Guadana 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
