| What Scouts Say | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
"Good mix of size and skill – quick, intense, smart and strong. ... A strong physical presence, Vincour has a good set of hands and follows the puck well in the offensive zone but also works his tail off to get back into his end to break up plays." - International Scouting Services 2009 Draft Guide "Skating is a serious flaw.
Short, choppy stride and poor balance really hampers his game even at
the junior level. Has some straight line speed, but it takes him forever
to wind it up. ... Best assets are his soft hands and projectable body.
Excellent hands from anywhere below the circles. Jumps on rebounds near
the crease. Can create for himself with excellent stickhandling ability
in tight spaces. Plays with a lot of energy and desire, but poor skating
doesn't allow him to get to loose pucks. ... Doesn't do much
defensively. Has more offensive upside, but probably more bust
potential." "Vincour is an exciting and
talented offensive player .. skating is his strength, as he has a great
first step and climbs quickly to high acceleration .. prone to injuries,
he was limited to 49 games this season but put up good numbers with 36
points, including 17 goals .. he's improved on his defensive game but
needs to work on man to man defense .. needs to be involved more
physically to be effective and utilize his 6-foot-2 frame .. great
hands, as he has a quick release off the half ..." |
