Even with what we know about his back, Cayden Lindstrom has a good chance of being selected in the top-5 of the draft which will take place tonight in Vegas.
He has offensive qualities, and he has the physicality to be one of the dominant players in the National League in the coming years.
Some doubt that he will be able to transpose well in the game in the NHL, but on paper, we’re talking about a great prospect.
Georges Laraque spoke about himself during an appearance on the radio this afternoon (BPM Sports) and he revealed information that deserves to be shared.
What is it about?
In fact… Lindstrom has a “feeling” that he’s going to be selected 4th overall by the Blue Jackets.
And if that happens, Ivan Demidov should be available at No. 5 if the Hawks (Levhsunov) and Ducks (Buium or Silayev) draft a defenseman, an idea that is Really popular since this morning.
Speaking of Lindstrom, Georges however mentioned that he has the personality and character to evolve in a market like that of Montreal.
For what?
Because the young man experienced racism growing up and he has a good strength of character because of all that.
Interesting, nonetheless.
Lindstrom has the attributes and the physique to interest the management of the Canadiens… and that of the Blue Jackets, who could select him to create a big one-two punch in the center with Adam Fantilli.
That would make a nice base for the next few years, at least.
And that would allow the Jackets to focus on improving the team on the wing.
A lot of
– Go Habs go!
– Yeah. It looks pretty much like that.
– Sam Reinhart is going to break the bank.
