Post-Game Talk: 2018 NHL Draft: How Did The Sens Do?

[BigRig4]

Care to explain? Their numbers seem good but not incredible historically as you mentioned.

Edit: Tychonick is the seventh highest scoring U18 defenceman from the BCHL. Wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up better than JBD.

All-time or just last season?

All time broski.

Not very good prospects at all. Chlapik will never play regularly in the league. Brown is very slow and horrible defensively . White is bottom 6. Paul is nothing.

He did pretty well last year though. 32 points in 52 games on one of the worst AHL team in the league as a 20 year old.

He'll have an extremely tough time getting to the net when Tkachuks boisterous character is in the way

Ha that’s funny. But just show tkachuk that quote and I wish zadina good luck while they’re both on the ice.

What about Carolina though? Or is Zadina conceding that Svechnikov is definitely better than him but he is better thank Tkachuk and Kotkaniemi.

And would he not be trying to fill Ottawa's net if Montreal would have picked him?

Further on JBD:
"But there was still a little surprise at just how high Bernard-Docker was drafted, even as the AJHL’s reigning most outstanding defenseman. The Oilers aren’t one of the AJHL predominant talent producers, and the league’s highest scoring under-18 defenseman (20 goals in 49 games, alongside 21 assists) in more than two decades."

Doesn't Makar have him beat from last year?

Detroit used our own second to draft Berggren. Ouch.

Will be hard for them to see each other when one will play on the top 2 lines while the other rotates on the bottom 2

I kid.

So next year, as it stands now, we give Colorado our 1st and 3rd. We add Pittsburgh's 3rd and Calgary's 7th. Another challenging draft, even if we do add so additional picks by dealing players this season, which I suspect we will.

Do NOT want Dorion to deal any more picks or exchange positions moving forward.

you think tkatchuk didnt hear that quote though? or white? ill be surprised if zadina even finishes that game.. these college frat boys have a ruthless mentality on the ice. everything is trash talk and cheap shots. and theyre thick as thieves. just look when even dzingel gets going its pandemonium. hes goes absolutely crazy on people.

we got a second and with it we picked a guy whos being universally heralded as a steal where we got him. cest la vie dog.

Obviously I don't have a sweet clue how we drafted, but based on the clips, readings, etc. I really like the first 4 picks. Speaking of those 4 picks: They are skilled, they are strong skaters and they have a history of some production. They all seem to have good character and it's really cool to hear they have great hockey sense. All 4 seem to be good playmakers, which I think is absolutely critical in today's game. I think all 4 have potential to succeed in the modern NHL game.

I was on record as wanting Zadina and Miller, and both were available, but that's not to say Tkachuk, JBD and Tychonick won't be a better group.

To me it looked like PD actually had a vision of his team and made picks accordingly. He wants a mobile, puck moving D corps with strong skating two way forwards. He wants to play fast and aggressive. I think these picks fit his vision. He negotiated an excellent trade as well. I think he had himself (and Mann) a very nice draft.

I know he heard that quote. My post was sarcastic..

 

[DJB]

I hope we focus next draft on the C position . Seems we took a lot of W this draft.

i know it was.. its iromic as his character will probably prevent zadina from playing how he wants to play

 

[topshelf15]

Target number 1 for the guy we drafted to plaster into the boards and strip the puck from
