LeafsDog Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Never a bad thing to sign a young ncaa player. he's 23, not that young for someone who hasn't played in the nhl yet I think he could be good though Awesome, thanks! no problem, if you ever want to hear about a prospect, just google his name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leafer4lifer1 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 From www.hockeysfuture.com: "Nash is a smart, offensive-minded defenseman who possesses a nice combination of size, mobility and puck skills. He uses his 6'3 frame and long reach to great advantage, particularly in protecting or stripping the puck. He's also not afraid to join the offensive play. Defensively, he is solid and keeps things pretty simple. Nash has great poise and patience with the puck, but what sets him apart from many young defensemen is in his timely passing ability, particularly on power plays. Though he skates quite well for a big man, Nash needs to work on having quicker feet. Developing speed and strength are two areas that will be paramount to his future success."

S-Bah Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Brendan has the size and the ability to throw some good checks, if he continues to work hard he could make the Habs in 2-3 years as a 5th or 6th dman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostsInTheForum Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 IMO, this is the guy who should have been called up, not Webber. He has size, has good defensive numbers and is proving to be effective on the pp down in Hamilton. Seems like a better all round player to me.

He has size, has good defensive numbers and is proving to be effective on the pp down in Hamilton. Seems like a better all round player to me. From the games I've been to, Weber has been the Dogs best defenseman by far. Nash isn't anything special and should only be called up if there's a huge amount of injuries.

I believe he plays with Weber on the PP in Hamilton, as it's his first year in the pros, the Habs don't want to rush his learning process.He looks like he may join the Habs one day but probably a couple of years yet.

jennifer_rocket Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 From what I watched of him on Sunday afternoon against the Marlies he looks like a decent prospect. I'm not too good at evaluating prospects, but he seemed like a good, young, physical D-man. Any chance he makes the team in two or three years?

jennifer_rocket Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 39 games, 2 goals, 17 assists. Not bad for our young defender. He's 22 or 23, I think. Perhaps he could be NHL ready in another year or two!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
