I think he has lots of promise but at 18 he's got a few more years to go before he's playing in the NHL. It would be a good move by the team that drafts him to keep him in the AHL for the next 2 – 3 yrs.
Often time big europeen guys have difficulty of lack of space and speed of the nhl. I love his skill set but dont like his pace, feel kind of risky pick
He will go 3 or 4. GMs will fall ln love with his size. Mitchov is the wildcard. Think whatever teams drafts 4th will take Mitchov. Who is a risk because he may not come over after his KHL contact is up. My prediction is Hawks pick Mitchov at 4 unless Fantilli or Carlsson drops. Which is doubtful.
Just wanted to say your videos are amazing man! You deserve more subs and more recognition. Best prospect videos on the internet. The way you break it down and even compare stats with past Alums from same leagues is fantastic.
He looks to use his reach well which is a good thing.I don't think he has much of a shot and seems a bit lazy around the front of the net.He sort of reminds me of the old Pete Mahovlich but likely not as tough.I think he will be a good sort of setup guy a sort of smooth calm skating player.I don't think his compete or board toughness wil be very good but he seems a good pick to be at least a second line center.

Can't help but feel like he's overrated. A great athlete, but not a great hockey player at the pro level
shot is unbelievable, in the world juniors. I disagree with characterizing His shot as average

Most overrated player of the draft. 3rd or 4th overall is WAY too high for that guy

Laine – Carlsson – Gaudreau
This kid reminds me of Kevin Hayes. But if he gets a little more physical and uses his size and strength he’ll be better then Hayes.

I think he’s overrated as well, id prefer Bedard,Fantilli, even Michkov over him IMO
Definitely a great prospect, great video!
Hope the Habs take him

Though he may not be as offensively gifted as others in top 5, I think he's able to play more physical on the puck where others may not.
I see him going to the Ducks at #3
