Fantasy Summary

A massive goalie who needs to refine many of his details and habits but could go high on draft day and develop well.

June 2024 — The largest goaltender of the bunch, Gidlof’s 6’6 frame and skillset make him a high upside bet. Gidlof uses adequate short lateral movement and strong leading hands to cut off shooters’ angles, extending and sealing the ice when necessary to shut down chances in the crease. He can tend to sink in his net when facing shooters coming downhill and can struggle with longer lateral movement, but the tools he does have give him a chance at being an excellent goaltender at the professional level. (Final Ranking: 110) Colin Hunter
