History

2007-08: While Henrique's numbers didn't really take a huge jump forward this year, that was more due to him playing on a deep and talented Windsor team and didn't get the type of offensive minutes that he likely would have received had he been on another team. He recorded 22 goals and 22 assists in 62 games, along with a +17 rating. His 44 total points matched his total from the 2006-07 season. He had a solid, though short lived playoff, contributing five points in five games. The Devils likely got a good read on the type of player Henrique was while they were scouting Brad Snetsinger, and had help in earning him a selection in the third round of the 2007-08 NHL draft by New Jersey.

Talent Analysis

Henrique plays a style of game that will make him fit easily into the organization. He's a sound two-way center who excels on face-offs and the penalty kill. Henrique has good offensive skills and instincts, but hasn't really got a chance to showcase them just yet. His intensity wavers from time to time, but that is common for most players his age. 

Future

Henrique could explode offensively this season, maybe not to the extent that 2007 draftee Matt Halischuk did last year, but with a greater offensive role awaiting him on a loaded Windsor Spitfire squad, combined with his underrated offensive tools, he could see his numbers skyrocket. However, he likely won't ever be a big-time scorer at the next level, and projects more as a third line, two-way center, who can chip in 10-15 goals a season.
