Definitely the bitching about a hashtag.

Give Blais the 2024-25 roster and he gets four more wins from better line up cards alone.

per the scout

"But I'll say this about Keaton: the term 'generational talent' has been thrown around a lot [last week] about McKenna.

Keaton Verhoeff might be the best right-shot defenseman prospect I've ever seen.

The kid's a unicorn. I believe he'll be the best right-shot defenseman to play in college since Cale [Makar], and he'll be playing college in his draft year-as a true

17-year-old. McKenna is an '07, and Verhoeff is an '08 who was only a few months away from being in the 2027 draft."

He's pretty much how you'd design a defenseman in a lab if you were an NHL team hahah. The only true complaint I've seen is some people would like to see his skating improve (or refined). When you watch his highlights though overall he can absolutely fly for being 6'4" and 210lbs. It's just cleaning up the details to his skating but at that point you're nit picking.

Who would be comparable to Eli McKamey as a recruit? I see mixed reviews about him on twitter. Some say he is a top player for his age, others have different opinions.
 

I find him really hard to project as a college player because nobody has played in the BCHL at his age. He put up 31 points in 52 games this season, which is a little underwhelming.

It'll be interesting to track how he does in the CHL this year...he'll still be young but we'll see how he does.

Considering he was a BCHLer, I could see him being comparable to Kyle Turris back when he was a prospect. Turris was only at Wisconsin for one year and left too early to turn pro.

Kyle Turris is an interesting comp because of how high he went in the draft. I have seen scouts on twitter say McKamey is that type of guy. 
 

I think a UND comp would be Tyson Jost. Jost put up about a point per game in the BCHL the year before his draft year. I think McKamey could have done that if he stayed in that league. 
 

One thing about Turris and Jost, they had over 2 ppg in their draft years in the BCHL. McKamey has a lot of work to do to get to that point.

Especially if you ended up on first and second was open.   

Never a problem for me.
I had a clean-up behind me such that I was better off (and better suited) to take the 3 x 90' jog after he went mucho big fly (the 4 x 90' jog) than to try to be Ricky Henderson.
