stephen-gregory-yzerman 129 Report post Posted July 3 Hockeyallsvenskan/SHL scout Jonathan Hedstrom ranked MBN as the 5th best acquisition of the SHL this season says hes "something of a young Alex Ovechkin-lite. A forward with enormous upside. A sharpshooter with skill who competes hard". He wont be Ovi but as a player comp stylistically it makes sense. MBN plays like a bull in a china shop and has an elite shot. Anyone not excited about this pick isnt paying attention just listening to the talking heads "its another typical safe Yzerman pick". I hope its another Seider/Raymond/Edvinsson/Kasper/Danielson pick all looking like good-great players. "Shoulda picked upside". MBN oozes upside. 4 kipwinger, CupCrazy22, Dabura and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Wings turn comes and Drapes, Yzer, and Lids standup and all three are cheesing ear to ear and look like they are joking/happy and in very high spirits. Not the typical all business, don't show emotion, Yzerman. Seemed like they were VERY happy to be taking the Norwegian Nightmare at 15. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thinking this guy is Maltby reborn. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
