Kid is going to be a stud. His speed and 1 on 1 moves is filthy.

His vision, explosive skating, and dangerous 1v1 play. He sees the whole ice like Crosby, and has that similar ability to control the play. He is the only player I have yet to draw parallels with Crosby.

Over PPG as a 15 year old in the CHL. Kid is special and I am the master of the obvious

Wow! Huge praise coming from Crosby today.

"He looks like he's got it all," Crosby told The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "When I watched him play, he reminded me of myself."

"I like the way he distributes the puck," Crosby said. "He seems to have all the tools."


"I can't believe Sidney Crosby said that about me," McDavid told the Tribune-Review. "I mean, that's my childhood hero. I'm a Pens fan because of him. I'm totally speechless. I'm amazed."

He reminds me of Duchene when he skates with the puck.

I'm putting the hype machine in this kid.
Shame that its so hard to watch CHL games in Spain.

Is he comparable to Malkin?

I wouldn't say so. Malkins more of a scorer. Mcdavid has amazing awareness which Gino occasionally doesn't show (tries to take on too much)

It's cool to see an NHL star assessing an undrafted prospect of such prominence. Doesn't happen that often. I always wonder to myself what NHL players think of these top undrafted prospects and if they think they will/won't make it one day.

I haven't seen much of this kid, but when I have, lsdkgjnsdk his vision is amazing. He's so far above other kids his age, it's ridiculous.

The Erie game is going to be on Sportsnet One tomorrow night. Anyone else going to be watching? They play London, so it's a good chance to take a look at Domi too. Does anyone have a link/stream to the Windsor/Erie game tonight?

It'll be on NHL Network for those in the states as well. I got my DVR set.

you'll be hard pressed to find CHL games streamed free online online unless theyre on regional/national tv

in other words, you might be in luck tomorrow. still a low chance someone steps up and streams it though.

if you want, it costs about 8 bucks after tax to see the game through the OHL Network. i've done that a few times, and although the quality is poor, the video doesn't cut out/stall.

When I saw they lost 2-1 to the Spitfires, I thought for sure his streak was done. Apparently not, seems to be able to do anything with nothing. Should be fun to watch him tomorrow.
