He's clearly got a demonstrably high hockey IQ, plays a positional game, gritty, great hands, and stays cool under pressure. His strength and conditioning need work but those are easy to fix. He just got picked up by Detroit and I'm so stoked you have a video on him with analysis. Thank you so much for posing this!
@@evanmaunders5688 Maybe strength and conditioning aren't the terms I'm looking for then, because I didn't know anything about him prior to this. I'm referring more to his technique, his quickness, his skating, things like that.
@@Razre Marco is plenty quick and technique is very developed for his age. He is one of those effortless/thoroughbred type of skaters that doesn’t have to expend a ton of energy to get to top speed.
@@seve7901 Which is all part of why I think he was a good pick. I'm onboard with Kasper, and I'm beginning to wonder if the word "stoked" was not strong enough to convey that fact.
Darkhorse Stevey Y pick at 8 - he's not afraid to reach and he likes the Scandanavian leagues, Kasper is also a legit centre which some have said is their biggest prospect gap.
@@nhldraftpros Haha, came here, as I just joined a fantasy hockey Keeper League, where prospects are large!!, and I just traded for Kasper - but knew nothing about him; this video really helped me decide to complete that deal, knowing very little about NHL prospects. This channel should help me out in the future as well... Cheers!
@@nhldraftpros I look forward to it! (I've just traded my way to 10 of the top 24 entry draft picks in this new league, so, I'll be wanting to do a lot of research on those players; hoping your channel can help a lot! Cheers, and best for your cannel! 😄
@@davideaston6944 Nicely done! I have 4 picks in the 2023 draft...in a 12 league dynasty pool. These are going to be worth gold! Will definitely have lots of videos on the 2023 class! Keep watching for them!
I know alot of people will disagree. But imo, if this guy continues to develop like this. He could be a Zetterburg type. Zetterburg was a extremely smart hockey player, he was also a very good 2 way player. Zetterburg was a workhorse.
Nice video and spot on commentary. Can see why some scouts now have him 8-12 range. He doesn't look like a first line talent but good size, leadership and pro game at 17 against men. I can jump on board for the pick around that range. He's not a swing for the fences pick but if you want an nhl player and want to play it safe, you take him.
Man there’s a lot to like here but I’m having a hard time seeing past his skating. His foot speed and edges are solid, kid spins around like a turnstile out there, but his stride is gonna hamper his full-chat speed. It’s not the end of the world since the short and choppy stride gives him a quick first 3 steps, which is important for his style where he’s clearly making a lot of use of quick turns and edges to create separation. But seeing such a broken stride just makes me think he’s gonna need more time than expected to keep up in the show, especially if he’s trying to energizer-bunny around the ice like that. Not a deal breaker but I can’t shake my focus from that stride
I think he'll learn to control it. Use it when he needs. We're also seeing highlights here.. And as someone watching just based on videos like this, I may be ignorant to how he plays throughout the game. I wish I could watch a full game to see if this is the norm for him.
Unless there's something physically wrong, I think a good power skating coach could get him to lengthen that stride and dig in a little harder. You're right in those first 3 strides he sees to lose power by not biting into the ice all the way, but his highlight are impressive for a 17 year old kid.
Scouts consider his skating one of his biggest assets. Hes an above average skater in a mens league that plays on a bigger ice surface, so he will have no problem transitioning to the NHL. In fact, the smaller ice in the NHL is likely better for his fast and physical playstyle.
@@nhldraftpros i take kasper cause i am austrian too :) everything is possible maybe det takes kemell or lambert but i somehow think kasper will be the surprise pick in top 10
A smart wings fan.. Wow you guys are hard to find nowadays. Most wings fans wanted to hit the Lottery with Savoie, and pray he grows, and can translate his skill into the NHL. Kasper is a guaranteed 2c. He is a really smart player. When I watched the Wings last year. I only seen a few guys actually playing smart hockey. We need somebody like Kasper. Also Wings fans need to realize. We have 2 2nd round picks, you can assure yourselves Yzerman will draft 2 studs in the 2nd round. He's already been proven to be one of the best GM's in the game today. Just sit back, and enjoy the ride guys. We will be a playoff team in 2-3 years max
Relies a lot on proximity to the net shots and trying to stuff it in, he will have to develop tough skin going in against NHL defenders trying this. Maybe that is why Yzerman saw value, get the puck in to the dirty areas. Marco's slapper on the move is superior, similar to Brian Rolston. Not many younger prospects have it down at this age. Wrister, okay, Backhand, ?
@@Cheaterwillatkicktv I think Savoie will be good pretty early, but I worry about his injury history particularly head ones. He might be injury prone by his mid to late 20s.
This Kid is the legit! He’s going to develop. He has slightly above average skills everywhere except shooting. That grit and compete level is something to note! Quite a unique player. Plus howyadodee lol 😂
Welcome to Detroit!
Stevey Y does it again.
Stevie Y wanted Kurchinski. Imagine that D core

Excited to see him in Hockeytown!!!

Kasper was #1 in the wingate and 2nd in the Vo2 max at the combine. He has things to work on, but he’s very well conditioned right now

Incoming red wings fans
How in the fuck do people think he's a 3C? He's at least a very good 2C.
He's like Tyler Bertuzzi as a better skater.
And now he will be playing with Tyler Bertuzzi!
(This comment was made as he was drafted. Anything can happen in 2-3 years.)
When is he gonna play for the red wings, because him, sider, Raymond, and edvinsson will make the wings a scary team
Can't wait to see that group together for sure!
Darkhorse Stevey Y pick at 8 - he's not afraid to reach and he likes the Scandanavian leagues, Kasper is also a legit centre which some have said is their biggest prospect gap.

Sally you talking About a detroit legend right now! That man played for only the wings. I remember thinking who is this guy named Henrik Zetterberg.
I think Rogle BK is now a training team for Red Wings players.
Saw him live many times, he is really under rated.
Yeah I think he may be a surprise pick at the draft...in a good way!
Yzerman pick coming

Pretty good player. And as always a great video
Thanks! I think he could be one of the steals of this draft! And always thanks to you Flying for all the support! Really appreciate it!
#lgrw He wasn't my favorite choice but I trust Stevie and Hakan
Always trust Steve Yzerman at draft time
In Stevie Y we trust!
Yzerman takes him at 8
While I was making the video I was thinking the exact same thing...this is the kind of prospect that Yzerman would take.
Haha high chance probably
played juniors in sweden detroit loves picking players from swe and he played not bad at wc for just getting 18
@@hannumanninen8471 Kasper did play well at the WC for sure! Him or Lekkerimaki to Detroit at No. 8?
@@nhldraftpros i take kasper cause i am austrian too :) everything is possible maybe det takes kemell or lambert but i somehow think kasper will be the surprise pick in top 10
Would love to see him become a Wing, he’d be in range for the pick and is a complete two way player. Excellent 2nd Line Center
Niederbach and Wallinder play for Rogle as well. Would be consistent with Yzerman's previous picks.

Backhand, ?
Hes a wing now
Tkachuk meets cirelli
Welcome to the Detroit RedWings!!!!
Welcome to HockeyTown Marco lets go!
Welcome to Detroit! #Lgrw
Do Ivan Miroshnichenko
Yup! He'll be coming out soon!
Intelligent and dynamic
So far his player comparison looks like Dylan Larkin to me
Look who got him
@@Cheaterwillatkicktv yeah I didn’t want them to… was really hope he fell to the Ducks. I feel like I would draft like the Red Wings stylistically.
@@michaelchen8201 I'm a wings fan so I do like the pick, I like Matt savioe though, I think he is going to be very good
@@Cheaterwillatkicktv I think Savoie will be good pretty early, but I worry about his injury history particularly head ones. He might be injury prone by his mid to late 20s.
Would love if the Leafs were able to snag him. Seems like a very Dubas like pick as well.
He'll end up in Detroit probably. Do the Leafs have a top 15 pick theg traded for?
@@thenickfoxx well would you look at that..
Could you make one of these on Yurov, Casey or Howard please
Already have one on Yurov! Just check the homepage. And Howard is coming soon. Casey will be a little later. Thanks!
This kid is so dynamic. Love him
Popiči nick 😂
Love the videos!
Thanks for watching! Much appreciated! Go to the "Community" tab and help us do a Mock Draft.
He skates with short choppy steps, like Mittelstadt.
This Kid is the legit! He’s going to develop. He has slightly above average skills everywhere except shooting. That grit and compete level is something to note! Quite a unique player.
Plus howyadodee lol 😂
Good 4th liner
Give him a middle-six nod at least!
Only future will tell
HORRIBLE TAKE
As a Wings fan I'm not impressed at a #8 overall pick one bit.
