2019 NHL Entry Draft Thread

[Habs Halifax]

Well he certainly looks better than Parent.

Not sure... Parent was one of the best Mooseheads players in the playoffs (That included Zadina) and he turned a lot of heads with how he played and stepped up when given more oppertunity. Parent also had 3rd line minutes during the season and not sure what role Pelletier had? His regular season was much better though.

 

[Andrei79]

Looks that way but Bjornfot is a good one. He would be a great pick if we get a mid first from Patch

Had the same thought today.

Him or Honka for the first that Pacioretty will get us. With all the centers, I could see an undersized guy like Honka drop.

Pelletier certainly had a bigger role. I do like Parent but he's a little guy with average skating. That's a huge red flag.

Funny story, a day after he got drafted by the Mooseheads, I saw Parent in a Mooseheads hat in a McDonalds outside of Montreal. Dude was crushing hamburgers.

Honka looked maybe not as poised and experienced as vaakanainen did, but cut from a different cloth talent-wise. Super pumped for this Liiga season.

Parent is a very talented kid, always was, from the first time I saw him play in Novice playing for Blainville. I remember when he was playing at the Québec Pee-wee Tournament, people were calling him the next Mario Lemieux. Now, in Pee-wee he was one of the tallest kids, but unfortunately since then, he has not grown an inch. Looking at his parents and older sibling, we kind of had a feeling he would not be a tall kid.

Parent was by far the most dominant kid in a I saw in a very long time until Alexis Lafrenière took over in midget AAA. There are people here (that have seen both play since young age) that still think that Parent is more talented then Lafrenière.

Anyhow, I would not be surprised if Parent excels next season with the Mooseheads.

Average skating, really? I will be honest that I did not watch him play last season, but I remember that skating was not one of his weaknesses. I do agree that he's not physically imposing.

Habs could use a couple of McGregor's in their lineup, seeing there is only one Conor, I'm too old, perhaps Dylan Cozens is their best option!!!...

 

[S Bah]

He's Irish, it's who the FOOK is this guy . Get it right youtube ! Ditto if the guy is Scottish by the way.

Mc's are Irish Mac's are Scottish both are Celtic by the way, as are the Welsh & French!!!...

 

[Andrei79]

You guys are going to love Albin Grewe.

 

[Mrb1p]

Is Albin a bit like Sue? Kids have to grow with a chip on their shoulders with a name like that.

Which players have had their siblings and parents say the most complimentary things about them so I know who's best?

Lets ask Cal and Adam what they think of Nolan.

I heard he's bigger and meaner than Cal and Adam.

 

[Per Sjoblom]

You guys are going to love Albin Grewe.

He has a cool name, the w in Swedish is pronounced as v, just like in German. So it is a fancy way of spelling Count (Grewe Dracula).

 

[NotProkofievian]

Lol knew Per would show up.

 

[Redux91]

Could one think Kakko secretly hopes the Canadiens get to draft him all of a sudden?, ill be happy with anyone in the top 6 obviously but Kakko is a force as well

 

[yianik]

Kakko with Kotkaniemi would be great. We starting to build a team now.

Yeah, Team Finland would be at a huge advantage over most national teams at the Olympics because half the squad will play together for the season , for the Montreal Canadiens.

Kakko is a winger id be down with. Hes a winger that drives the play like Svechnikov, unlike Zadina, Tkachuk and Wahlstrom. Hes really dynamic too.

Obviously, depending where we finish, first choices for me is going to be Hughes and Dach, but Kakko is currently #3 on my list. I really like Turcotte, Cozens and Newhook also, but I have Kakko ahead for now.

Him and Kotkaniemi would be amazing.

I watched a lot of Turcotte and im pretty sure hed be worth it too. Not sure about the others like Newhook, Cozen, Dach, etc. Turcotte is another one that is sooo damn slick, I could see him become a 1C with a lot of offensive potential, hes in my too 3 atm, mainly because hes he only one I know of along with Hughes, Lavoie and Kakko.

Love Turcotte, would definitely be down with that.

Hopefully the 2 Alexs end up being better than the 2 Sams in 2014.
