​YANNICK RATHGEB

YANNICK RATHGEB - Defenseman - 23 - Undrafted

LAST UPDATED 1/22/19
Rathgeb, one of the better defenseman in Switzerland's top pro league, made the trip across the Atlantic after the Isles took interest in adding him to their system. But, given the surplus of near-NHL ready/AAAA tweener defensemen the Isles have, it was likely that Rathgeb would get lost in the shuffle. While he has kept his place in AHL Bridgeport, he has not shown that he is anything special or worth NHL consideration. His skating is fine and most of his game is decently well rounded, but he lacks the true high end skills necessary to be a top-6 defenseman in the NHL. He plays with an edge, which is an asset for teams looking for a gnarly depth dman, but at 23, Rathgeb's prospect clock is ticking. Maybe he can fight his way into being a solid #6, but it's unlikely.
