In reply to perttujunnonaho. York is going to be insane, but you are right bring has a filling out to do. Ghost has a lot of work to do too

Ghost does not know how to defend, that”s different then size issue! OK, i will confess, that i haven”t seen any College games here in Finland, so i have not seen York progress, but there is similar sized defense-men in NHL, who dominate games like Miro Heiskanen, Roman Josi heck Ryan Suter is also 5 ,11! This comment does not mean that Cam York will be as good as those listed above, but strength can be pretty easily fixed, and would not need but some dedication! Talent is harder to fix and find, so i would keep open mind about Can York”s abilities! Although i prefer my defenders big and physical, York can be paired with one, and succeed in that way! Just trying to stay positive!

I believe that in order for a power play to be great, you have to score. The USA NDT was on the power play vs a mediocre Maine Black Bear team, which actually kept the puck on the perimeter for most of two minutes in your video. Also, if you take a good look at Cam York, you’ll see that he is really small for a defenseman. Sure, he’s only 19, but he needs another 25-30 pounds on his upper body to play in the NHL as a defenseman. He’s a good college player at Michigan, but in the Big Ten Network games in which I watched him play, he just isn’t very good in his own end. He’s too small and as we’ve seen with Shayne Gostisbehere, size does matter on defense. Chuck Fletcher passed on some bigger, better players in the 2019 NHL Draft. Taking York was a mistake. He may not have even gone in the first round because he’s too small.
