What GRC says: 2008-09: The surprise of the prospects tournament last fall, Lashoff joined the Griffins roster at the conclusion of his junior season this spring, presumably for a little experience at the pro level. Instead, he stepped up in the absence of Jonathan Ericsson and became arguably the team's best defender during the latter portion of the season. Unfortunately he finished the playoffs on the sidelines, the victim of a concussion suffered in the Manitoba series. A mobile blueliner with very good instincts, he never missed a step, notching almost a point per game, quarterbacking the powerplay, and playing in all-important situations. Even though he must return to the OHL next season, Brian has served notice that he is a player, and has begun his move up the depth chart.
Spring 2009: Lashoff had a great camp with Detroit and earned an NHL contract as an undrafted 18 yr old. He continued to show improvment during his OHL season this year and now will get a chance to see what it's like as a pro. An offensively gifted blueliner, Brian has size, speed and talent, and should be an interesting addition to the blueline. |
