2020 NHL Entry Draft - Never too early....

[Bubba88]

If the take is calling them generational after they’ve established themselves and not predicting their careers at the draft, only one or maybe two of those goalies is generational. The rest would be considered franchise

It's the draft and the starting Point is Askarov. It's not About the end of their Career, it's About the prediction of their future NHL career.

I have 4+4 generational prospects in the last 22? years. That's Nothing. That's why there is talk About Askarov and the Position he will get drafted. Does one think he is a generational prospect and he should in fact go Top5? I don't think this is the way to go with him. Not seeing all the starting Goalies and Cup Winning Goalies and how many high drafted Goalies ended up.

I really hope Askarov is picked before us. It means a better chance of one of the top-7 guys dropping. I’d also like to see Sanderson and/or Lundell go before us too. This is if we’re not picking top-3.

I don't.. only for the sheer fact that it means KBIB isn't coming back.

I don't.. only for the sheer fact that it means KBIB isn't coming back.

I could deal with mod KBIB bragging daily about his followers if it meant us getting Marco Rossi.

He’ll never honor that. He has no integrity.

lmao one TSN scout had Rossi ranked at 18

 

[ChiHawk21]

Sanderson Holtz Quinn. I prefer Sanderson but would be happy with any as well as Raymond and Rossi.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Generational superstar Marat Khusnutdinov at #35. Feeling pretty good about winning the Stanley Cup and then drafting the GOAT.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Brandon Coe, Emil Andrae, Brett Berard, Emil Heineman all projected to be available with our 2nd round pick.

Ian Moore and Zion Nybeck available with our first 3rd round pick.

Cross Hanas, Alexander Pahsin, Kasper Simontaival, Tristen Robins, Christoffer Sedoff available with our second 3rd round pick.

Could be a good draft, boys.

Someone mentioned Quinn = Sharp...If that's the case, get that #10 jersey ready.

Obviously mine was a Sharp numbered jersey.

It’s a little shocking to see how much Sanderson has moved up people’s draft boards. I swear he was barely in the top 10 when hockey ended in March. Now he’s in many people’s top 5.

I really think people are way too bored combined with a lack of defensemen being available. Regardless the hawks don’t need a defenseman with their first pick. We need a two way forward.

Love to see Rossi or Quinn pull that Hawk sweater over their heads come draft day.

I'm sure you would as a Gatineau native

But I'm right there with you. Really high on both those guys. I've been saying for a couple months now that if there's no big faller, Quinn will be the pick.

Like I said yesterday, someone is gonna pick Sanderson before 9, bet on it.

For the record, I do like Sanderson, but not before 9. Sanderson would be a mid teens pick for me.

Quinn reminds me too much of Gilbert Brule. A power forward in a skilled forward's body. I'm not sure his game will translate. Brule was even smaller than Quinn, but the same principle applies.

I've seen a lot of Alexander Holtz around 9th so if the Hawks pick there he'd be my guy despite the defensive deficits. You can't teach that shot.

You also can't teach shot IQ which he lacks. On the other hand, Quinn has that box checked.

Quinn would get killed hanging out in front of the net like he does in the NHL. If he is successful, he might be one of those guys who either gets injured a bunch or flames out in his late 20s.

Most of Quinn's goals are of the greasy variety. I just don't know how that's going to translate.

They do seem like typical Hawks forwards. I would be happy with both, if we got Rossi at 9 that's robbery.

Tell that to Gallagher

Who has been hurt a decent amount in his career...

 

[crazyhawk]

Call me crazy ( wait a second ) .. but I like one syllable names ... Jack Quinn.
No fuss .. no muss ... just the facts Ma'am.
My name is Jack Quinn ... I'm here to help you win a Cup.
Now Marco Rossi ...

Size is still a thing with scouts and GMs.. even in today's game oddly enough.
