Hockey Scouting Reports with Matt Levine at least shinkaruk wasnt a blown top 10 pick, he should have been better but he also feel a lot at the draft to begin with
It doesn't take long to see why he didn't make the transition if you watch this video carefully. He's not a great skater even for the AHL. NO SURPRISE he couldnt' transition to the big league.
The Conspiratorist Tavares still isn't a great skater. He's got below average speed. What sets him apart though is his vision and anticipation, along with an unreal set of hands. He also has a sky high hockey IQ.
I thought this video was gonna be about Yakupov but honestly I forgot about Glennie and I really do think that he could've been much needed depth for the Stars had he became what he could've been
let's not get carried away,lol take away all 894 goals & the great one is still the nhl all time leading scorer. I know he played most his games vs garbage competition, but Sather liked him & believed he could've done good things w/ the Oilers back in their heyday .
Mike C exactly he’s only known for scoring huge amount of points in what was then a terrible basically non competitive league, like I just don’t see how everyone thinks he could have been better than Gretzky, I mean I’m Scottish and seen the man play and yeah he was obviously very talented just not Gretzky though
Very interesting, I had forgotten this guy. Hopefully he is doing well anyway. It´s difficult sometimes, if you have been injured and try to play despite being in poor condition.
I attended a coaching clinic about 9 years ago and Kevin Constantine was one of the guest speakers. One of the stats given during that 3 day period was that only 37 kids from North America for each birth year play more than 20 NHL games with meaningful playing time in their career. I think it's over 8 minutes a game. There are plenty of 1st and 2nd rounders that don't even play 100 games in the AHL in their career and are stuck in the ECHL. It's always amazing when some high round draftee can barely cut it in the AHL, but there are guys who don't get drafted and grind their way to the NHL. Getting noticed in the easy part, it's working hard and constantly improving is the challenge.
i remember watching Glennie play in the AHL, I go to Texas Stars games all the time and I liked him here. But back then I knew nothing about the technical side of hockey and how it was a business and a i remember just not seeing him one day.
My uncle told me he was bullied by him in high school and he was a draft bust about 2 years ago. So in a way he had it coming. Kinda cool to see u talk about him.
Dallas had a defenseman sometime ago they thought was going the same route. One of the coaches had a talk with him. Asked him why he doesn’t practice at full speed. The player responded “I don’t like hitting my teammates!”. He eventually got his chance to play, needless to say he didn’t mind hitting the other team! Brad Lukowich
I remember when he was drafted and a few people said there was no middle ground with Glennie--Either he would hit or miss--Yakupov was supposed to be the next Jagr--that would make a better video
The problem with Scott Glennie had nothing to do with injuries or commitment to getting better or anything and everything to do with he just stopped developing altogether. Simply put he just doesn't have an NHL type of skill set. Never did I look at Glennie, Schenn and Calvert and think that Scott was ever the better player of the 3... Some players just stop developing and that's why we need either a 19 or 20 year draft
Blake Strand because aside from the odd 18 and 19 year old most need another few years of development before you can actually get a better idea of what the player will be. Ask any NHL Scout or insider...
Well it looks like conditioning fucked him up the most. I get that injuries can mess up your conditioning up a bit, but you can still at least stay active to maintain good health and nutrition. Too bad he had concussion problems. Highly touted players who have failed to make an impact in the NHL shows you how serious and high level the NHL is. If he can manage to still improve his conditioning along with keeping his injuries a bit under control he would make a solid top-6 or 3rd liner right now. It's never too late, but that's up to him to do something about it. It looks like he's accepting that he will never play another game in the NHL again.
It's a pretty long way for guys to jump from the jr's to the pro's. Some guys do make it look pretty easy though. In recent there's been a huge push from very young guys. I dont think i ever remember such a rush of huge talent flooding into the league, within such a short period of time. Still not uncommon to find a bust or two within the top 10-15 draft picks.
Big reason for this "rush of huge talent flooding into the league" is that it has become faster and cleaner. Therefore speedy, talented players are needed while slower and perhaps stronger vets are not.
Sort of... There's always been swings from smaller, and speedy'er then back to larger and stronger. Seems to be an eb n flow. na i think there's truly more talent coming from this younger generation.
J. Nybergh two main reasons actually. The NHL is becoming a faster more skilled league, but also the cap situation makes teams rely on younger players. Not all rookies are a Connor McDavid or Austin Matthews, but not all of them are going to turn out like Yakapov. I thought the Oilers ruined him, but the truth is, he is a KHL player at best.
You're right, there's the cap situation to look at. Although teams seem to overlook players past their prime (cheaper vets) in favor of younger players on their entry-level contract.
Just cause your good player in the WHL or any jr league doesn't mean your going to be a star in the NHL.ohNyquist,you should do a video on Louis Dumont he was a great player in WHL and his entire career but could never make the NHL.good video!
Shame, kinda reminds me of Duclair. Guy has all the talent in the world, and when he plays well draws comparisons to Forsberg. But the guy just doesn't have any drive.
Thomas Malone hes had to suffer that horrible 3-year stint with the coyotes. OEL is a franchise defenceman, and even he doesn't look that great with the coyotes, nobody does, they're a trash team that kills prospects
Bro, what? Every single CHL team has good/great/amazing players. Alot of the time, a player putting up 80+ doesn't mean they will be a for sure NHL star. The amazing thing about professional hockey is the player drafted in the fifth round has the same exact opportunity as the player drafted in the first round. Every team is looking for something different and in hockey the most development for players is between the ages of 16-21. That being said, there a fuck ton of 1-4 round draft picks who never played a single NHL game. The great thing about hockey (unlike football and somewhat like baseball) is if you don't make the NHL, there are so many other options for professional, even semi pro, leagues to make a living in. Also, this player you're showing never had the hype. *A better example would be Nail Yakupov*, a guy everyone believed to be the next Kovalchuk. He was a useless bust. My close friends brother was drafted in the first round (like Nail) and got to see the 'aura' Nail had around him in the green room post draft. He thought he was a great before he even stepped foot in Edmonton, he failed miserably.
yeah i noticed that too. looks like his strides are too short and his ankles are angled in oddly. i'm sure he skates way better than me but doesn't look like nhl level skating imo
Yeah, Yakupov is so bad no one even comes close. Whether it be lack of points, or # of games played before he was out of the league as a 1st overall pick. He set a new standard for busts.
![Summer Walker - Heart Of A Woman [Official Lyric Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/SFddctbZzw8/mqdefault.jpg)
Dallas got Jamie in the 5th round, so teams win some and lose some
Panda Boogie they won a lot more with benn than with him.
damian garcia you think?
As a Stars fan, you reminding me of this made my day worse ;(
Graviteh rip
LETS GO STARS JUST TRYING TO CHEER YOU UP BUD
Me to :(
Look at who the 5th round selection was that year though...I have to wonder if bad skating was why he was drafted so late.
Hunter Shinkaruk - What if? lol. There’s always guys every year that have a ton of hype but just don’t live up to it
Hockey Scouting Reports with Matt Levine at least shinkaruk wasnt a blown top 10 pick, he should have been better but he also feel a lot at the draft to begin with
Sounds like a canucks fan take though, which is fair
Yakupov is a big bust too, as is valeri nichushkin
Yung Dick sweat at least valeri js back in the nhl this year and has another shot. Yak blew his final chance
What? I'm a Canucks fan and I'm glad they traded this 1st round bust for Granlund.
whats with the music? it sounds like hes a murder suspect
It doesn't take long to see why he didn't make the transition if you watch this video carefully. He's not a great skater even for the AHL. NO SURPRISE he couldnt' transition to the big league.
Tavares wasn’t a great skater either when he started.
Seems heavy footed n basic handles
Jarome iginla standard
Glennie's stick handling was pretty average too
The Conspiratorist Tavares still isn't a great skater. He's got below average speed. What sets him apart though is his vision and anticipation, along with an unreal set of hands. He also has a sky high hockey IQ.
I thought this video was gonna be about Yakupov but honestly I forgot about Glennie and I really do think that he could've been much needed depth for the Stars had he became what he could've been
Nite glider
The video would have been called “what happened to Yakupov?” , in that case.
Carlos Craigito not like this video was called "what happened to Glennie?" Lmfao idiot
Brayden Infante
True
Brayden Infante the thumbnail is of a Dallas Stars player yet you thought it was Yakupov and you're calling him the idiot?
MyHockey Opinions I didn't see the thumbnail I clicked on the video from my notifications and only saw the title
This guy is actually my coach (instructor) in my camps. Excessive speed hockey.
Love you man❤️
Can you do Luc Bourdon or Cody Hodgson? Cody didn’t live up to what he was supposed to be, and I wanna see your opinion on what Bourdon could’ve been
Cody Hodgson has had brutal back problems. guy can't even skate anymore
Seriously thought it was Tyler Seguin at first in the thumbnail
Way back in the day, there was a player from Great Britain that could have been better than Wayne Gretzky, but he refused to leave his hometown.
Carlos Craigito he did a vid on that
Oh.....
Don’t tell me your on about Tony hand
let's not get carried away,lol take away all 894 goals & the great one is still the nhl all time leading scorer. I know he played most his games vs garbage competition, but Sather liked him & believed he could've done good things w/ the Oilers back in their heyday .

Biggest fail of all time Alex Daigle
Steve Hunt yes he was little better
781 points in 850 NHL games says Yashin was a good player, and you are an idiot :)
fair enough :)
Chris Devine How i am idiot my commen was about Daigle
Clearly you are not an idiot, you were talking about daigle :)
Nikita Filatov next?
Someday he'll do rebounds!
Very interesting, I had forgotten this guy. Hopefully he is doing well anyway. It´s difficult sometimes, if you have been injured and try to play despite being in poor condition.

Brad Lukowich
Thats the difference when you play men not teenagers. Its a tough transition . the ahl still pays well tho.
Mike Korzimba Hockey edition?
Digging the new style. It's always interesting to see what happened to highly touted players that didn't carry on to the show.
Nice work! Enjoyed the vid
I heard the music in the beginning playing and i thought i had imjaystation open in another tab LOL
Keep up these great videos! So glad I subscribed.
Thank you!
I remember when he was drafted and a few people said there was no middle ground with Glennie--Either he would hit or miss--Yakupov was supposed to be the next Jagr--that would make a better video
When he played for the wheat kings I think I saw him play once being from Brandon but I was very young at this point
Lmao making me think of beau Bennett and Angelo Esposito
Yo can u do one on Gilbert Brule I remember watching him growing up for the Vancouver giants and he was unreal where is he now
Awesome video! On computer rn lol, I made a vid like this but of a player who even never got drafted.
Can you do a video on former Avs prospect Joey Hishon? Was supposed to be the next big centre for the Avs but concussions ended his career
Louis Leblanc...
TheredMachine31 draft bust af
The problem with Scott Glennie had nothing to do with injuries or commitment to getting better or anything and everything to do with he just stopped developing altogether. Simply put he just doesn't have an NHL type of skill set. Never did I look at Glennie, Schenn and Calvert and think that Scott was ever the better player of the 3... Some players just stop developing and that's why we need either a 19 or 20 year draft
Jordan Graff no 18 year olds are proving that they can light up the league why make nhl ready players wait 2 more years
Blake Strand because aside from the odd 18 and 19 year old most need another few years of development before you can actually get a better idea of what the player will be. Ask any NHL Scout or insider...
Jordan Graff which is why only a few of them make the nhl first year which is a good system
You can still draft players 19 and 20 years old...
How do you explain why he stopped developping? Probably lack of commitment, because I believe practice makes better
O my god I remember glennie he dominated when he played for the brandon wheat kings
When I played be a pro mode his nhl version passed my character and stick handled all the time
I'm thinking that in a year or two you might be revisiting us with Denis Gurianov.
Marcus Broadnax The Stars can’t draft for shit and I’m a diehard Dallas stars fan
Scott Glennie was never projected to be the next great NHL scorer, end of story.
You should mention players drafted immediately after
Well it looks like conditioning fucked him up the most. I get that injuries can mess up your conditioning up a bit, but you can still at least stay active to maintain good health and nutrition. Too bad he had concussion problems. Highly touted players who have failed to make an impact in the NHL shows you how serious and high level the NHL is.

Wow this vid blew up compared to ur other vids
we have a saying over here, "Sick Note"
He’s playing with the gladstone lakers rn senior hockey
Great video!
Scott Glennie ROCKS

Clearly they are more professional coming out of juniors than they have been in the past. I mean they have a mindset of a pro.
J. Nybergh two main reasons actually. The NHL is becoming a faster more skilled league, but also the cap situation makes teams rely on younger players.

Fabien brunstrom?
Work ethic is everything if you want to play in the bigs...
Yakupov, did oilers really fuck him up, or was he just not as good as advertized? Also id like to see a Patrick Stefan piece.
Just cause your good player in the WHL or any jr league doesn't mean your going to be a star in the NHL.ohNyquist,you should do a video on Louis Dumont he was a great player in WHL and his entire career but could never make the NHL.good video!
Jake Virtanen - What if?
Virtanen at least looks fit to be a second-liner at best.
tbh his skating looks subpar in the videos you shown
Shame, kinda reminds me of Duclair. Guy has all the talent in the world, and when he plays well draws comparisons to Forsberg. But the guy just doesn't have any drive.
Thomas Malone hes had to suffer that horrible 3-year stint with the coyotes. OEL is a franchise defenceman, and even he doesn't look that great with the coyotes, nobody does, they're a trash team that kills prospects
He my coach now
i like the video but the music is extremely distracting
liked the vid, music was a little loud tho
"Number fifteen, Burger King foot lettuce"
Can you do what if Patrick O'Sullivan.
In this video I rank the habs prospects in order, thanks for watching if you do click on the link ruclips.net/video/j5qwsCCG7Lg/видео.html

Subbed btw :)
dany heatly before he became heatly?
Is he Brian Glennies son?
No. His father's name is Don.
His junior stats were great but to say NHL's next great scorer? Ehh I never heard any hype around him that much to be honest
I thought this was about ried duke
He was never seen as the "Next great goal scorer in the NHL" lolz
Scott Glennie ??? Never scored more than 15 goals in the AHL !!! THE flop on the 1st round in 2009!!! (and Louis Leblanc)
Who EVER said he would be great!!
Nice video
His stays are very underwhelming. Nowhere close to the greats' junior stats
I'm sorru but 180 points in 136 pts after being drafted doesn't sound A lot.
Jerry Jerry ur an idiot bud
Eric Fresh Vagina how lol? The title said “next greatest goal scorer” so if you’re going to say that he should of put up mcdavid numbers in juniors
Read the OP slowly.
"I'm sorru but 180 points in 136 pts after being drafted doesn't sound A lot."
What if canucks didnt trade thier first round drsft picks
Angelo Esposito.
Nice lotta what ifs lol
Graviteh won't be happy with this lol.
hatrickane lole
What about Tavares
H0ckeyplayer 35 don't think playing for team Canada and becoming a captain of an NHL franchise makes you a bust
Yung Dick sweat just kidding
He's a plug. End of story.
Scott Glennie performances are OVERHYPED because he played junior with Matt Calvert, Brayden Scheen and Mark Stone!!!
Kinda looks like sequin
i thought it was seguin in the thumbnail at first
Stephane da Costa
he missed an empty net right?
TheRolllingStones RBLX _ patrik stefan
Playlister VR It was a joke.
"dallas StRRRRRs"
Reminds me of myself
lol
Injuries wasn’t his problem....
Hard to judge a player but from this single clip, his skating doesn’t look very strong.
he couldn't skate straight line player
He looked a bit sloppy on skates
What a bust!! all because he loved the image of the high profile of being hockey player but not the work ethic guess he was destined too fail.
work ethic ...... look at the great bobby clarke
without it you can fail just like this guy
there are better busy stories
Dude looks kinda wonky on his skates, can he skate?! Is it just the replays? He looks awkward.
yeah i noticed that too. looks like his strides are too short and his ankles are angled in oddly. i'm sure he skates way better than me but doesn't look like nhl level skating imo
who???
I have his autograph
Another Alexander Diagle
OhNy I'll tell you. what happened called SUCKING! lots of players do it!!!!!
Bo Bennett
Lupul
nah
Dave Chyzowski nyi
Satisfy guilty time distance actually mail position alliance where greatest
His stride is god awful
Wane gletsky...
You remind me of the foot lettuce guy
Do a video of nail yakupov the biggest bust ever
Jonathan Cristao Nope alexander daigle is the biggest bust look him up
Jonathan Cristao Or alex yashin
Origanal Bleach daigle had more points in his first 2 years than yakupov ever did
Bender Alley K bud I know he was a dominant scorer lol I was joking I figured u knew because daigle couldve been great he just wasnt trying
Yeah, Yakupov is so bad no one even comes close. Whether it be lack of points, or # of games played before he was out of the league as a 1st overall pick. He set a new standard for busts.
