Quoting: JNoons13
Solid list, and agreeing with what you said in your description about Eklund being a high end Tier 2/Lower Tier 1, but the only one I am not overly sure on is Coe. He is a stud in the OHL right now, but he is 20 years old and dominating the league like any over age player should. That said I think I'd put him high tier 3, but that is only a minor tweak and it is personal opinion.
With Coe you could very well be right.
he is big at 6'4" but he is still fast and puck handles like the smaller guys (puck handles in close to the body so he isn't pick pocketed) has a good shot and plays smart on both ends of the rink.
last year at 18/19 playing in the AHL he didn't look out of place and was playing stronger as the season went on. this year at 19/20 is completely dominating the OHL and it isn't even close.
I've watched a decent amount of film and he looks like a legit top 6 but might end up as a middle 6 guy so you are not wrong in your assessment.
Scouts before the draft all raved about his intangibles but wondered if he could ever put them together to reach his potential. lots of scouts said he could end up being the steal of the draft and to me I feel his work in the OHL will translate through to the NHL as long as he doesn't lose his confidence!
Funny thing about the 2020 draft we got 3 players scouts all said could end up steels.
Robins who was drafted in the 3rd cause he was only 5'7" then grew 3" last year
Bordeleau who should have been our pick at 31 but we got lucky enough to get him in the 2nd and
Coe in the 4th.
