NHL Entry Draft 2024 NHL Draft Talk

[Bileur]

Couple interesting guys playing across the river this evening.

Spencer Gill is a guy to look out for.

Unsure what our process and tendencies will be moving forward, but under the former regime he ticks nearly every single box

He should be a guy we're shortlisting

First question that came to mind when I read this was whether Spencer’s father was Todd or Hal. Surprised it’s neither.

No doesn’t have an NHLer parent, but extremely strong family genetics for the game.

Older brother is a Lightning draft pick, his younger brother will be an early pick in this years Q draft, and all 3 from and played for the same Midget organization as Mann’s son.

 

[bert]

He could be our next Chara
We NEED to clear the fu..ing crease

Russian Hedman i hear.

 

[GCK]

Likely another top 10 pick. Hopefully we don’t bungle it like the Boucher draft

Currently 11OA and 30OA.

 

[Super Cake]

Who is the consensus #1 pick this year?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Who is the consensus #1 pick this year?

Macklin Celebrini universally

 

[Sens in Process]

Can Ottawa surrender the Boston pick as compensation for the Dadonov fiasco? Or does it have to be our pick? I can't believe I am turning attention to the draft again.

And who is running our draft?

No, has to be Sens pick

Ruutu and Boyd are likely running things for the time being.

The timing of the sale hit the Sens extremely hard.

Carter Yakemchuk sounds like the type of player the Sens need. It seems you have to draft this type of player it's to difficult to trade for a big right shot D.

Carter Yakemchuk
Ht/Wt: 6' 3"/190 lbs
Position: RHD
Team: Calgary (WHL)
Dobber Prospects - November 18th: "Carter Yakemchuk is a big, rangy right-handed defenseman with a combination of size, aggressiveness and offensive potential. Yakemchuck loves to activate in transition, often carrying the puck and relying on short and efficient passes to move the puck down the ice."

 

[Cosmix]

This is the draft to nab a good RHD prospect. Make it so.

BPA in my opinion based on the consensus of the best prognosticators like McKenzie, although if that turned out to be a RHD I would be even happier.

Cole Beaudoin is a local kid that seems like a Sens pick

"local" is not a criteria that is high on my list.

 

[Cosmix]

The two main "bunglers" are gone!

Horrifying stuff that we are discussing a top 10 pick this year.

Just horrifying.

Its part of the legacy of Dorion!

We better have the scouting staff in place then. Have we hired a new head scout yet?

No. Be patient. We need "stability"! HaHa

We might do better with a "consensus" pick.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Tbh the rebuild was never done and we're still in need of more high end talent. Trading too many first round picks to shorten the rebuild isn't a good idea.

 

[NHL Dude 120]

Russian Hedman i hear.

Which player?

 

[Cosmix]

It's almost over!

If we won 1st overall... would you rather draft Celebrini, where we already have a lot of top 6 forwards, or trade down and draft Levshunov (RHD) and pick up some other assets

Run up and take Celebrini as quick as possible

Rhd would be fantastic

Celebrini

LOL. Take the best player. If that's Celebrini then you take him without hesitation. You don;t pass up on a player like that because you already have Josh Norris.

Likely 4-5 years out from being a NHL player. Yes, exactly the player I'd like but likely going around mid 1st round in the draft, unless we are drafting there (and right now thats highly suspect), take the BPA.

Far too many draft "busts" are because teams in high draft positions for a perceived organizational need or want, i.e. Boucher.

 

[Alex1234]

Which player?

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

I guess the big question is, how deep is the draft? Where is the consensus drop off points?

One of my favourite all time players Jarome Iginla's son in this years entry draft. " Tij Iginla has struggled for consistency as of late, but when he’s hot, his shot can be so difficult to handle. Beyond the scoresheet, Iginla is flashy, defensively reliable and can land a big hit, too. Sounds a little like someone we might remember." 2023-2024 Kelowna RocketsWHL 31 GP 24G 16A 40Pts
