Michael Misa’s Sharks Scrimmage Performance: NHL Future or Still a Work in Progress?

Athletic 6-foot-5 goalie Ravensbergen is set to return to the WHL’s Prince George Cougars next year.

Marchant shared who banged the table for the Sharks to pick Ravensbergen in the first round. That’s the highest that the franchise has ever picked a goalie, the previous high was No. 55 Terry Friesen in 1996.

“Our goaltending staff, Evgeni Nabokov and Ryan Miller were really high on him,” Marchant said. “They were passionate about taking him.”

Wang, predictably for someone who didn’t seriously start play hockey until he was 14, was very raw at the scrimmage. As advertised, he flashed genuinely breathtaking skating for a 6-foot-6 teenager — Marchant called it “amazing” — but his decision-making needs a lot of refining.
