Worthy of spending our 1st round pick (Winnipeg's pick) on?
Yes, we can afford to take that swing.

Justin Poirier is killing it in the LHJMQ. He's only 5'8 but 190lbs is pretty solid for one of the youngest kid in the draft.
Would you draft him ? And if yes, where ?
That's become the norm rather than the exception with aspiring professional hockey players in North America. Nowadays they all have personal trainers, skating coaches, skills coaches, nutrition consultants etc and they work with them all year.The famous Berkly Catton interview.
This guy is a student of hockey little details and put efforts to improve is game...wow!!
Berkly Catton To Be a Top Canadiens Draft Target This Summer
The Montreal Canadiens are in need of elite skill and goal-scoring in the organization, and few players available in the 2024 NHL Draft fit the bill quite like Berkly Catton. When NHL betting odds predicted a bottom-five finish for the Montreal Canadiens at the start of the year, Catton’s...montrealhockeynow.com
Have you seen Charlie Elick play? A number of scouts say he is a good skater and has a real nasty streak.What is your take on him if you have watched his play?Yes, we can afford to take that swing.

So one of Chicago, Anaheim or Columbus should be selecting him I guess?!Wow!!!!
I just listened Marco D'amico's interview on the French Radio 91.9.
He said that he did about 15 interviews so far with prospects of the June draft and Berkly Catton is the one who impressed him the most:
He said that usually the interviews are 15 minutes long but with Catton's passion of the game the interview was an hour.
He said that he is exactly the type of Martin St Louis cause he is a student of the game.
He gave an example:
Catton told him that last summer he spent hundreds of hours working on his shot but for him it was not enough so he décided to go to a goaltenders camp to speak with them. Catton asked them what were the areas where they were the most uncomfortable in the net. So with the answers that the goaltenders gave him he worked on his shot specically on that.
D'Amico said Catton had the best personnalty he interviewed so far because of his passion , his knowledge of the game etc.
Catton told him thst during the season he watched 15 habs games to study Nick Suzuki's game on 200 foot and Cole Caufield for his release.
I had Catton 3rd overall because of his IQ ( the most important quality for a hockey player). ...this convince me even more..
Slaf built for this market…not worriedSlaf was playing in a team with no pressure to perform. It should be very different next year. There will be pressure to improve and less patience for development imo
If he was at the U18 and was dominating, he’d be gone by our selection.I value size and his game but I do wonder how is translates to the NHL. I have not personally watched many games from Lindstrom to know any true authority.
I just voice word of caution. 3rd rounder in the WHL draft and has shown promise this season as an older pick in this draft. The other angle to it is guys his size with his skill do look good when compared to others in the CHL. Lots of 16/17 year olds and smaller 18/19 year olds to capalize on.
I just wish Lindstrom was in the U18's. Really wanted to see what he could do against the best in the world his age.
Call me crazy but I really like Iggy and Eiserman
He's a brilliant player but so are Slaf, Suzuki, and Caufield and if one of them poops in the others' bags it could really mess with the vibe we're cultivating.I'm a bit afraid to admit it but the 2024 eligible forward who has impressed me over all others at the U18s is Trevor Connelly. Based solely on this extremely small sample size, I'd put him above Greentree, Iginla, Luchanko, Vanacker, Helenius, Brandsegg-Nygard and others.
Fast, rugged, highly skilled. Maybe the kid is an idiot but he can really play hockey.
Sounds like a late round pickHe's mean and he's a good skater. That's about it for him. I have some real challenges with his ability to move the play forward. There's been some really awful reads throughout the u18 where he has open options and chooses the covered one almost every time.
He's probably a 3rd pair PK playoff warrior, if he fixes the other stuff, which is tough to fix at this juncture, you could survive with him as a 4 next to a creative puck mover.

If you are talking about the same restaurant on Sherbrooke St W, then I must mention that Ganges is miles better!Does Star of India have lunch buffets these days, or did that go with COVID? Draft Catton and take him to the Indian buffet every day. No one can set foot there without committing to three plates, not counting dessert.
I mean the snapchat thing is an edgy 15 or 16 year old dummy who had access to social media, I wouldn't write him off as a pick because of that. Pooping in teammates' bags though?And furthermore, a few years after the Mailloux blow up, Molson isn't gonna want to stand in front of the media and sponsors to defend why they took a kid who used racial slurs and made light of the holocaust on snap chat.

And part of the bigger problem with him in my opinion is that his bad behavior has been a pattern over the years. The snapchat and pee/poop stuff only seems to be the tip of the iceberg. He went through countless hockey programs in his teen years.I mean the snapchat thing is an edgy 15 or 16 year old dummy who had access to social media, I wouldn't write him off as a pick because of that.

in his defence, who amongst us hasn't taken a shit in a friend's luggage?I mean the snapchat thing is an edgy 15 or 16 year old dummy who had access to social media, I wouldn't write him off as a pick because of that. Pooping in teammates' bags though?
I wonder about Iginla being able to carry the puck and playmake. His finishing game is strong, the rest of the game I wonder how it rounds out
Lindstrom is a bigger question mark in the playmaking area.
Very coolWow!!!!
