The Flyers are looking for a do-it-all play driver who almost certainly is going to stick down the middle at the NHL level.

They could do a lot worse than Caleb Dainoye.

And he's a player that they just might have a little bit extra inside information on due to a family connection.

So let's take a look at Caleb Dainoye.

He's 6'1, 172 pounds, had 84 points in 56 games in the

Quebec Major Junior Hockey League this past year. And he is the younger brother of one

Elliot Dainoye, who the Flyers took in the fifth round of the 2020 NHL draft. That said,

he's a much, much better prospect than Elliot was.

Unlike Elliot, who if he hits, and he is still on the Flyers organization,

if he were to make it to the NHL level and stick,

he's always been viewed as more of a role-playing bottom sixer.

Caleb Dainoyer's upside is significantly higher.

If he hits, he could be a top six center on a

playoff team who can do pretty much everything out there and do it all well. So let's go into

Caleb Dainoyer's strengths at the top of the list, hockey IQ. Everyone gives Caleb Dainoyer

extremely high grades for the way he thinks the game and the positions he puts himself on the ice.

He's just a really smart player. He finds ways to get open, finds soft spots in the offensive zone.

And above everything else, he just makes life easier for his linemates and for all of his teammates on the ice.

He's just one of those guys that makes everybody around them better. And there really aren't any glaring weaknesses in Caleb

De Noye's game. He's pretty good at basically everything in hockey, skating, shooting,

passing. He's good at it all. There aren't any glaring holes. And as for the physical side

of his game, look, De Noyoa is not going to be throwing his weight
