Tallinder's S72 Draft Profiles: Part 6

[Patrik Tallinder 1,087]

I'm sorry for this article being so late, I've been pumping out articles lately and was having trouble getting this done on top of them. Since the last one, Europe won gold at the WJC, and the season is approaching its end. Anyways, let's get to it.

 

• The last 13 S72 players were created last week.

• Lucas Brandt earned the most TPE in the draft class last week, with 38.

• Andrew Su was traded from Mississauga to Ottawa last week.

• WJC

• Valtteri Vaakanainen won gold with Team Europe. Congrats!

RISER OF THE WEEK

 Adam Frence - RW - 157 TPE @Kachur

For the second straight week, I've chosen someone outside of the top three risers as the Riser of the Week. Frence sat just outside of it, moving up 5 spots in my rankings, from 19 to 14. He just recently became the AGM of Las Vegas, and has been a very active member in the community prior to that as well. His 91 points rank 7th in the draft class, and he also places top 10 in both goals in assists. The French winger is a nightmare offensively for other teams, with a versatile skillset that keeps his next move unpredictable at all times. Ideally his defensive game would be a bit better, but he still has plenty of time to develop it. Around the start of March, Frence had two weeks of 4 and 2 TPE, but has since then increased his weekly TPE total every single week, with 17 last week. He is surely a player who is on the radars of VHL GMs, and rightfully so.

 

 

[18] - Remy Moreau

[12] - Barry Bonds

[11] - Slov Loski

 

I want to add a note here that Moreau dropping so low is completely my fault. I accidentally marked him down as earning 12 TPE a couple weeks ago when he had 0, so his falling in the rankings should have been much less abrupt, and more gradual than it is here.

ACHIEVEMENT  CENTRE’S PLAYER OF THE WEEK

 Valtteri Vaakanainen - LW - 285 TPE @Jubo07

Moving up to the 3rd spot in my rankings, Vaakanainen is a Finnish winger with an exceptional scoring touch. His 45 goals rank 5th in the draft class, and his 90 points are among the best as well. He is strong on the puck, and has a powerful stride that makes him the usual winner in races to the puck. To add on to his already impressive game, Vaakanainen is also a great defensive player. Only four players have managed to earn every possible capped TPE to this point, and he finds himself in that exclusive group. He has never dipped below 14 TPE in any week, and has had 16+ in 7 separate weeks. The Finn is certainly a superstar in the making, and will surely be a top 5 pick, or very possibly top 3.
