Spencer Abbott Wings next draft steal !

[king_malice 17]

Abbott is my buddies little brother who plays at the Uni of Maine along side with another Wings prospect Gustav Nyquist, He's not the biggest guy at 5'9 180 Lbs but can do it all. Just saying maybe consider him in the later rounds !

I had to stop watching after the 13th clip of him just celebrating. I love young highlight videos but I can't stand watching just the celebration, let me see the play and what the kid actually does. Hope for the best in his future.

He's 23, so he's no more eligible to be drafted. He's a free agent at the moment. Brian Burke is rumoured to be intrested.

The hit at 18-20 seconds in is brutal. Totally left his feet.

5'10" 175lbs.

Ya, that is exactly what we need...like another hole in our head.

So what do we need a 6'5 220 that hits/fights and doesnt put up PTS.....?

Just sayin, this team has too many small skilled forwards to know what to do with. I didn't say anything about fighting, but 6'2" 207lbs. that hits and battles for position in front of the net, or clears the net would be nice, but we are talking about Ken Holland, so your guy will probably have a better chance of being here than mine...

I like the big power forward style guys to but the game is changing and size really doesnt matter in the league anymore a few guys throughout the line up does it, speed and skill is the new NHL , thats all im saying

Shhhhhh! Don't let my wife hear that! LOL! I do understand your point though!

[king_malice 17]

Just talked to Abbott's older brother he told me the Wings have contacted Spencers agent along with 19 other teams so far, but nothing until after the season is over, teams just want there interest to be known

[redwingfan19 293]

pass

Size doesn't matter too much in the regular season, but come playoff time when the reds swallow the whistles it makes a big difference.

Is this guy related to the twins Chris and Cam Abbott, currently playing in Sweden?

[cusimano_brothers 1,655]

Based on birthplace, I'm guessing no. An article in the Hamilton Spectator says he is twenty-one years old.

so get Nyquist and Abbott playing together and add in a guy like Riley Sheahan when he's ready to join the Wings. in the meantime, put Abdelkader on the line. there's also Joakim Andersson who's a big body that i personally think is ready to join the Wings.

[cusimano_brothers 1,655]

He stands a better chance if he doesn't win the Hobey Baker Award.
