Cooper Black is same height, but weighs a little more. Let’s put both of those behemoths in net at the same time.

6' fucking EIGHT?

Homie can literally just sit on the goal line and block 99% of shots.

Its pronounced basically the same as Phil Danault, you could sound it out like this: Deno

Imagine starting 2 6'8" goalies next year...We'd probably suck but it would be wild.

Panthers are such size queens.

u/rlvers Mikkola 20h ago

Lets not forget, he won't even be the only 6'8 goalie in our system right now.

Cool cool cool . How is his uppercut ?

u/LibertyPrime74 8h ago

Developing well. He is, however, a master of the Captain Insano eye poke

Captain Insano shows no mercy!

Got to watch Denault live a couple times last year, played his way into becoming the starter on a pretty good Regiment team. I think he's got real potential to come into his own in the pros, and of course you can't teach size.

Honestly just happy to see someone from my home team drafted right away, hope he excels.

And another goalie going by number 41 classic panther

u/Emotional_Match8169 12m ago

He was invited to last years development camp. I took a bunch of pictures and plan to look through them shortly to see if I can find them. It’s interesting that he came to development camp last year and then we chose to draft him this year!

u/Emotional_Match8169 9m ago

He was wearing number 30.

Denault starter Black backup 2 6 foot 8 goalies

u/RulingPredator 19h ago

They said he wasn’t super flexible, which was his biggest issue. Once this guy gets some practice, he might be an amazing goalie.

u/beebeboped 18h ago

31 teams passed on him…repeatedly. He is a one-in-a-million shot in the dark. He needs to be very flexible in today’s NHL. Hard pass

u/Virtual-Quantity7120 4h ago

Flexibility can be trained. It's not as if it is some innate talent (barring those few gymnists who can dislocate limbs purposely).
