2019-2020 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

Older scouting report on Hoefenmayer, an unsigned 4th rd pick of Arizona. Offensive LD that tucked pucks away from the high slot. Dubas-style defenseman.

Hoefenmayer was ranked 12 on Corey Pronman's list of top free agents from Europe/college/CHL back in February (remember February?). The list also included older European guys like Grigorenko, Jaskin, and Nesterov who were all ahead of him so he did well on the list for a 21-year old. His write-up:

Hoefenmayer has been having a huge season in the OHL, where he looks like he?ll clear 25 goals and 80 points as an overage player. He?s a great puck-mover with the top-end skill and offensive brain to make difficult plays at both ends of the rink. Hoefenmayer also has a bomb from the point and will be able to score at the pro level. He wasn?t offered a deal by Arizona, which drafted him in 2017, with scouts pointing to his skating and defensive play as reasons why they question his pro projection. I do like the player but he needs to show he can skate and defend at the pro pace next season.

Kevin Papetti from MLHS also had some nice things to say:

Expect a lot of "Hoefenmayer's working with Underhill" stories once things get back to normal.

You have to like this last rash of signings, not too much info on McKenna, but Hoefenmayer looks like he could be something.

The quote came from the meditation site "Calm" which I should be using like religion.  I have googled the name without success but the quote definitely came from there. Unless I typo mistaked the name.  LOL
