He is obviously talented but… you must admit… the caliber of the league he’s playing in is well below north American standards. The D’s look like static cones… goalies look like their pads are made of concrete. Hope it translates well to NHL level.
He was taken by Buffalo 14th overall, and I'm wondering if he could be this year's Zach Benson. With Jeff Skinner being bought out by the Sabres, there just might be a roster spot available for Konsta, especially if he were teamed with Benson and either Kulich or Savoie to form a new 'Kid Line' for them!
The only issue teams had was he’s a little smaller than you want in a number 1 D. That’s why he dropped. There wasn’t any other reason. He’s got Adam fox potential
I know a Price admirer when I see one. Less aggressive he doesn’t overchallenge, great butterfly movement allows him to be reactive and not have to cheat on pucks, maximizes his frame by staying tall, steady forward hands, great RVH selection. Caps may have gotten themselves a stud here
pinches far too often far too early, doesn't hustle back on defense when is out of position or the puck is turned over, plays too physically soft when not defending his slot, ON ICE SHOT WHAT LEVEL IS HE PLAYING AT
Go watch Demidov highlights. Nobody cares about negativity. Quit being a hypocrite. you are the most pathetic human who knows nothing about hockey knowledge. What are you his dad net picking every play he makes. Give him chance or get lost.
Not cooked at all. If you watched all their games many came down to 1 or 2 dumbass goals that exposed the defensive weakness. Power play off the point was non existent…and they simply couldn’t get a crisp pass to get anything going out of their own zone. This kid may change that
