Randy Marsh: Scouting Report

[oilmandan 686]

Randy Marsh

Defenseman

Las Vegas Aces

 

 

If you had to describe Randy Marsh off the ice in a word, you'd say, American, Dad, Fighter, Geologist, Farmer, Guitar Player, Singer, Entrepreneur, Wine connoisseur. Really the list could go on and on.

 

On the ice, he is a little bit tougher to crack. He can be an offensive defenseman, with a heavy shot from the point, or he can also be a fighter and heavy hitter, when others decide to step to him. 

Pre game meal prep

 

Randy can be very vocal in the locker room and on the ice, when he doesn't like something, he isn't afraid to call out a teammate or coach. Teams interested in drafting Marsh, will have to stay on their toes, as he does like special treatment when he can get it. If he's not feeling the love or feels unappreciated, he may lash out or ask for a trade. So a healthy and happy locker room and team environment would be for the best.

A proven winner in the past (VHLM history excluded), Randy hopes to step into a winning mindset and capture many championships in his career. With many other career opportunities on the side, he isn't afraid to hold out or even retire if he is in a bad situation.

 

Headaches aside, Marsh can be counted on to play with all his heart and soul invested every night. And pledges to improve at a fast rate every week. 

His strengths include his heavy shot as mentioned above, a keen offensive mind and ability to quarterback a lethal powerplay. He can also lay the body and protect his own end when he isn't busy trying to fight the opposition. 

 

Standing up for a teammate

 

Some of his weaknesses do include a reluctance to pass very often, he believes he has the best shot to score in any situation. As well as a lack of discipline. His irrationality can cause him trouble and when he starts to get out of control, one would be wise to keep a close eye on him to avoid eruption. 

All in all, Marsh is a raw talent, that will need some guidance and teaching, but can be considered a dark horse prospect to the GM willing to take their time to build him up. 

 

Definitely not a high 1st round prospect, but can be a steal if he falls out of the first round. Caution is key either way in this circumstance
