Ryan Strome, Islanders First Round pick in 2011
I played with Malcolm Subban in minor hockey for a few years, and he’s a stud. I think we played him a few times this year where we had 50 shots on him, and we scored maybe one or two times. He’s a rock back there, very athletic, and he’s only going to get better. He hasn’t played goalie for that long. He’s going to be a real good player.

Al Jensen, NHL Central Scouting
Malcolm is very good with his positioning with outstanding lateral ability and quickness. He can make the big save to turn a game around, but he covers post-to-post so well with his butterfly. His leg extension is incredible and he has a very quick glove hand.

Ryan Strome, Islanders First Round pick in 2011
Scott Kosmachuk is a pretty big winger, and a good sniper. He had a pretty good season, with 30 goals to his credit.

Trent Klatt, Islanders Player Development
Scott is a gritty player with a lot of good intangibles. He is hard to play against and has a good shot.
