Kevin He, a Winnipeg Jets prospect, voted best skater in the OHL by league coaches. Is this a sign of things to come at the NHL level, or just a great junior season? How much weight do you put on these coaches' polls when evaluating prospects?
Interesting to see Noah Van Vliet recognized for his shot-blocking. Is this a skill that often gets overlooked in today's high-scoring OHL? Does it translate to NHL success?
Owen Flores almost took the top spot for best puck-handling goalie. Is this an increasingly important skill in the modern game, or is it overrated? Could this be a deciding factor for NHL teams looking for a goaltending prospect?
no names Roobroeck led the IceDogs in scoring but wasn't recognized in the skills categories. Does this suggest a more well-rounded, less flashy game? Or are the coaches missing something? Is he a dark horse prospect for the NHL?
Finally, with three IceDogs players recognized, does this signal a potential resurgence for the franchise? Or are individual accolades not indicative of team success?
