I’ve watched a lot of prospect videos this year, half the reason I do more of these draft profiles is because I genuinely enjoy watching young prospects make other prospects look silly. Plus, then I can lie and say I’m a scout at the bar and one day it will impress some poor, naive girl.
Anyway, I bring this all up because even though I wrote the Patrik Laine and Jesse Puljujärvi and Max Jones profiles, Clayton Keller had by far the most impressive highlight reel.
Now Keller was only playing against other young adults while Laine and Puljujärvi were playing in professional leagues already (and Max Jones nearly killed a guy).
