Prospect Info: 2024 NHL Draft

[Huffer]

As of right now we currently have the following picks:

Knowing that we may trade 1 or more of these picks before the Trade Deadline, it's still fun to talk about prospects.

For arguments sake, lets say we end up somehow keeping our 1st and the MTL 2nd (just for discussion sake say we trade other picks and prospects at the TD).

Any thoughts on potential players currently ranked in most lists starting in the 20's that could be available when we most likely pick?

Really excited to see who we can get with our 32nd overall pick this year!

 

[Buffdog]

Part of me wouldn't be opposed to packaging the picks to move up... any idea how many spots we might be able to improve?

Of course it goes without saying that we oughtta not do it to pick a giant defenseman with low offensive upside who is ranked in the 3rd round

 

[trebendan]

I’d like to see the Jets draft Elick or Emery - both are RHD.

 

[Jetabre]

I would like the one that ends up being a steal for where we draft them and turn into an NHL superstar which people look back and wonder how they fell so far in the draft and should have gone first overall.

Just a small ask.

 

[SUX2BU]

The highest ranked RH d-man that falls into our laps .......

 

[bustamente]

I don't think we will have to worry about our 1st round pick, Chevy will be dangling it in about a month

 

[Whileee]

Seems like the Jets will have one or two picks in the 27-37 range this year. A few intriguing RHD in that range....

Mews
Emery
Elick

 

[Joe Hallenback]

Watching the top prospects game last night and came away fairly impressed with Elick and less impressed with Parekh but its only one game. (had to edit it Mews was good last night it was Parekh that was poor)

 

[Mooche]

Happy to see a few quality D prospects look to be in range of the Jets' selection(s) -- if they do end up holding onto those picks.

I am usually a big proponent of looking at BPA, but the lack of quality D depth in the pipe for the Jets is concerning.

They need to begin to make an effort to really address it over the next few years.

I know it's simplistic as they both played in Brandon, but I know you've watched a lot of Brandon games so you might have a good read. How would you compare a guy like Elick to someone like Schneider?

Hard for me to get too excited about the 2024 draft until I know if we are going to have a 1st rounder or not? Seems like the type of season that might see our 1st round pick get traded.

Jets will likely own two picks in the 26-37 range (their own 1st and Habs 2nd). I doubt that the Jets will trade both of those picks, and since the prospect rankings really flatten out in that range I would be looking at prospects in that range, anticipating that the Jets will likely have a pick then.

Mews
Emery
Elick

Colton Roberts is rising in the rankings into that group. HockeyProspect.com just put him at 24.

Yes, he's another intriguing prospect. I still think the Jets should draft BPA, because a pick in that range is at least 3-5 years away from an NHL role, but if there are good RHD that is always a valuable asset to have in a prospect pool. A RH Samberg would be nice...
