    My favourite part is when he scores the goal and the kid (who is probably a very reasonable height) has to launch himself into Karmanov's arms

      I was happier to see that he could catch a kid like that while on skates. His ankles/knees/back must be in good shape, which isn't a given at that height.

    With continued improvement & lack of serious injuries, this kid will be an all-star stud/powerplay specialist both in front of the net and at the point. Doesn't take a genius to see the athleticism & balance just from those short clips. His long strides will hunt down any forward within his gap zone. My friend was 6'6'' forward playing a bit of Junior Hockey and had nowhere near his level of balance & skating ability. Hope the Red Wings can draft the next Zdeno Chara.

    The first thing that impressed me was his skating. Maybe it's an optial illusion because he's so tall. He also seems to be fairly well coorrdinated, mush better than average for kids that get that tall that fast. I think he could use some bulk put on maybe 25 or 50lbs if muscle. Would also like to see him develop a slapshot. With that size and reach he'd have a rifle. Tremendous potential.

    I've seen and experienced guys like him, his skating skill and hockey IQ is a great asset. The one thing I've seen from him that has improved is his wrist shot, this will get him to the next level in the pros. However, his legs are his biggest downfall as his hips don't cooperate with his legs, his upper body does not equally balance his legs. If it were me as a coach I would put him more in the weight room otherwise, on the next level he will get seriously injured. If you want to look at height advantage: A good example would be someone like Wayne Gretzky, Mike Modano, Mario Lem., just to name a few. What did they all have in common? They were in a height of 5'11" to 6'1" tall and all of them were great players. However, there were a few exceptions that worked on weights or in weight rooms to build thier upper body strength like: Jamor Jaugr,

    Chara was an anomaly, the rare exception. There is a point where being too tall is a hindrance in hockey. (Goaltending aside). Really tall players have been mostly busts.
    Everyone thinks of height when it comes to size of a player. Weight is just as if not more important. And more specifically where the weight is distributed. There’s 5ft10 players bigger than 6ft1 players. Think Brad Marchand. Lower center of gravity, built like a cigarette machine, like a bull. Reality is, these abnormally tall players are more like beanpoles and can’t get built like that.

    I could see a 3rd round pick being used on him IF his skating improves and he begins to dominate. Guys like Point dropped with more offensive skill because of their skating. Maybe he's taken with a 6th or 7th round pick at that point, but if he goes undrafted that'll be a huge (no pun intended) mistake. Skating is so easy to fix especially with an NHL roster, that it kind of gets overblown to me. If Karmanov makes it to even the AHL, he's going all the way. I don't see him being Chara level good but I can see a consistent 3rd pair D who's a fan favourite and is a big morale booster.

    Is he north of 250lbs? He's a big target to hit, durability is my initial concern seeing him.

      does he even know how to throw a check
      size matters and he reaches around to defend rather than separate the man from the puck with the body

    He’s 16! He may not end up in the NHL until he is 21 if he plays in the NCAA, assuming he gets there, but with 5 years to develop, the potenital is high. As they say, you can’t teach someone to be tall.

    • @chevelle1

      No way at 21. Probably 3-4 yrs college and another 3-4 between the ECHL and AHL. Dmen take longer to develop as it is.

    Hockey is not basketball. Skill and speed is WAYYYYY more important than size (to a certain extent). Once you are 5'10", 6', 0" and extremely fast and skilled, the extra height and weight is not necessarily a benefit. Not to mention getting underneath other players with your stick and body is the name of the game with hockey.
    If he is fast, if he is extremely coordinated, he can be a good defensemen. but the skill and speed need to translate or the height is not a factor in him developing.

      Forwards have to go around or through defenseman. The guy's wingspan and massive stick reach are going to make that difficult no matter how fast you are. And at 275 pounds any collisions are going to go his way.

    I played with a kid being abnormally taller than his opponents and half the penalties he would receive would be completely incidental just be due to being so much bigger. Might be the same case for this kid. a simple shove from this kid may feel like a big hit from regularly sized players

    Probably from 6'5" up height starts to work against you especially in modern hockey. And at 7' you have the additional downside of being so long you get injured easily. Hockey is an especially bad sport because of the physical nature. Being so lanky makes you very vulnerable.
