PickleCanuck Posted September 18, 2023 Author Share Posted September 18, 2023 For his first prospect tourney I think he's exceeded my expectations which were already pretty high.. I'm loving our D prospect pool... this upcoming draft is pretty D heavy so we can add some more top end with these guys and have one of the more solid prospect pools. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He, along with Raty, Bains and Hirose, stand out for having such excellent poise and vision when they have the puck, especially when playing in a fairly loose system with little familiarity with teammates. You're right - really impressive first two games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Tim Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 This kid is unbelievably poised for his age. Looked like a first round talent to me. Just needs to get stronger but all the tools are there for a top 4 d-man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIAHN Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Just watched the Hunter interview (thanks for posting @PickleCanuck ), what a bright, articulate, and mature, young man. Really nice to see. I remember reading all the prospect reviews on him, and seeing him projected in the early to middle second round. It will be great to watch his progression. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Great interview - the kid has huge potential based on the Young stars. Great pickup at the draft. He's actually bigger than i thought he was too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely he was definitely the best pick at the spot, definitely trending upwards in value him and Mynio were solid picks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eeeeeeeeergh Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 this guy was my choice if we had kept the additional 1st round pick deserved to go in the 1st round imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked Hameenaho, Brindley, and Richie if we went with a fwd I probably had Sale as BPA but he was kinda more of what ails us and since we already grabbed our D man I felt those 3 fwds brought the most to the table in terms of complementing our core. It's no secret that Pekarcik was my guy from very early on last year with the Hunter pick but I was thrilled with Hunter I really didn't think he would be available when we got him I was very happy with the pick even if Pekarcik went with the next pick I think Hunter was the right choice I was extremely pleased with his play at the youngstars too.
