NHL Entry Draft #19 overall

[Sens of Anarchy]

If we can somehow get Broberg...

Amazing set of wheels on that boy. Hard to say who will be there.

 

[bert]

I dont expect him to fall to the sens but if he does I want them to take Soderstrom. I like Lavoie in what I have seen but the organization thinks he has attitude issues apparently.

Mcmichael, Newhook or Seider if they cant get Soderstrom.

McMichael reminds me of Monahan.

 

[SensontheRush]

Never in our history have we taken on bad contracts to accrue picks or move up in the draft. I can't imagine we are going to start now.

It has been done by other rebuilding teams, the Sens are now rebuilding. Sens took on Gaborik in exchange for Phaneuf, they must have known he wasn't going to be able to play so there is at least that.

 

[Clayonator]

Would be happy with either of Seider or Lavoie. Would also take a flyer on Leason with our 2nd if he makes it out of the 1st round.

 

[aligator]

I would seriously consider the opposite. I would contemplate moving back and trying to get another 2nd plus. There are quite a number of good players in the late first to second round range. Just watching the draft rankings I have seen quite a lot of shifting of players going from 2nd round to 1st and 1st to 2nd round. Many of the draft ranking organizations have different rankings where some first rounders are in the second round or vice versa. We could end up with 4 or 5 picks in the top 60 and it us possible that a number of them turn out better than some players that get drafted in the teens

I agree. This is not the type of draft to try and move up. Moving down makes more sense though I suspect it will turn out to be neither.

If we can somehow get Broberg...

I don't think he's that good. Great skill and size but don't think he has the hockey sense to be a star.

Philip Broberg Scouting Report: 2019 NHL Draft #9 - Last Word on Hockey
https://thehockeywriters.com/philip-broberg-2019-nhl-draft-prospect-profile/
I personally do not think his IQ is an issue. He is a little raw but oozes potential. Both these sources indicate IQ as a strength.
He will most likely be gone at 19

Never in the Sens history have they been in a position where they will be (multiple) million under the cap floor. This is new territory in (a lot) of ways.

 

[Liver King]

Why isnt Tomasino getting some love

Fast and skilled

 

[Sensinitis]

I'm almost certain that we move up higher than 19th. We have the 32 + 57 OV picks to dangle around for that to happen. Also some players if any teams would want them (Ryan, Boedker, Smith, Harpur, etc.), and maybe even a prospect like Chlapik can be packaged.

Considering the amount of depth our prospect pool has now (just look at the projected top 15 U-25 players poll that XSpyrit has going on if you doubt me), I wouldn't be against trading 19 + 32 to move up and get a top-15 talent.

If you consider the history of pick trades, we can move pretty close to the top 10 with that type of package imo...

We have 45th overall not 57th.

 

[Icelevel]

We have 45th overall not 57th.

ha, i thought it was 44 we had

 

[thesensguy]

If we trade up to somewhere in the 15 range we have to target Newhook, highest upside pick in the early teens imo. I would be thoroughly disappointed with McMichael, Johnson and Tomasino. Need to go for the high upside here. We have tweeners in spade.

 

[BondraTime]

ha, i thought it was 44 we had

Yeah it is my mistake

 

[Icelevel]

There will be at least 1 very good player at 19 for us. Hopefully we pick that guy.

 

[Sensinitis]

We have 45th overall not 57th.

Even better

Draft best player available regardless of position lw/rw/c/ld/rd/g

Of course we read this every yr that every team takes the BPA & GMs will tell us that they picked who their scouts thought was the best player available. However, who determines who the BPA is wherever a team is ranked to pick when so many of these players are ranked so differently depending on the site you like or even every team could have different ranking of players from each other & these sites. We can see from our polls of who our best prospects are that it ranges with people who they think is the better player.

I'm of the opinion that when you have two players or more who are ranked fairly close to each other & the scouting staff can also be divided as to who is the better player is that drafting for need isn't always a bad thing in this circumstance. For example, if half the scouts like the LWer & half the scouts like the RWer & that is an org need, who do you pick?

We have 45th overall not 57th.

This site has us picking 57th not 45th. Not sure what's right any more?

That site has the Sharks pick transferring to us instead of the Panthers pick. The Sharks owned both picks at one point, but traded one to us and one to Detroit. The pick is conditional though, the Senators get the higher of the two while Detroit gets the lower of the two.

That's wrong, not sure how Detroit would get that pick

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

44th Pick
The Florida Panthers' second-round pick will go to the Ottawa Senators as the result of a trade on September 13, 2018 that sent Erik Karlsson and Francis Perron to San Jose in exchange for Chris Tierney, Dylan DeMelo, Josh Norris, Rudolfs Balcers, a conditional first-round pick in 2019 or 2020, a conditional first-round pick in 2021, a conditional first-round pick no later than 2022 and this pick (being conditional at the time of the trade).[20] The condition – Ottawa will receive the higher of Florida or San Jose's second-round pick in 2019.[20] – was converted on March 26, 2019 when Florida was eliminated from the 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs ensuring that Florida would select higher than San Jose.[21]
San Jose previously acquired this pick as the result of a trade on June 19, 2018 that sent Mike Hoffman and a seventh-round pick in 2018 to Florida in exchange for Vegas' fourth-round pick in 2018, a fifth-round pick in 2018 and this pick.[22]
