SCoC Draft Profiles: Could Olivier Rodrigue fall to Boston?
Analysis:
Olivier Rodrigue plays a lot bigger than he looks.
The 6’1, 159 lb. goaltender is an aggressive, fearless butterfly goaltender whose backstopped the Drummondville Voltigeurs to the second-most amount of wins and the 5th best win-% in the league.
How Rodrigue handles this is having some of the best puck-tracking and agility in net among any prospect. He’s usually square to the shooter before the shooter has an idea of how they want to attack his net and when they do, he’s ready for it. And combined with an absolutely punishing rebound control, it makes any shot on him a major gamble in whether or not it’s going to create an opportunity for another forward.
