The Montreal Canadiens are proud to select from Boston University - Brady Tkachuk!

Brady Tkachuk will provide much needed size and grit to our team and will make a winger for Drouin. Tkachuk and Gallagher will agitate teams for the next decade and will change this teams Identity. If needed we will slot him into the centre position and put his playmaking skills to good use..
Player Comparable: David Backes
Point Projections: 40 - 50 points

The Ottawa Senators are proud to select with the 4th overall selection in the 2018 NHL Draft - Noah Dobson

Dobson is a dual threat defenseman with top pairing and possibly #1D upside. Dobson's excellent skating and high hockey IQ make him a dual threat that can put up points and shut down the other team's top players. He will join a defense core with the likes of Erik Karlsson and Thomas Chabot and form a big 3 in Ottawa that will be formidable for years to come.

@Gil Scott Perron is on the clock... @RedWhiteBrown pick made

With the 5th overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, the Arizona Coyotes are thrilled to select, from the Halifax Moosehead of the QMJHL, right winger Filip Zadina.

We were especially surprised that the Canadiens selected a player who their GM had previously publicly indicated would not be a good pick for their team.

Filip is a proven goal scorer, possessing one of the best shots as well as, in our opinion, the best puck-handling ability in the entire draft. Filip possesses a strong frame and excellent skating ability, and we believe he has the ability to step into the NHL and quickly become an impact player. Filip is an extremely competitive player who is able to score and attack offensively in an uniquely diverse way, making him an absolute nightmare to defend against.

Simply put, Filip is the full package. We believe he has the ability to be the most impactful forward selected in this draft and we are thrilled to add him to our organization.

Detroit (@SensBrawler) is on the clock!

With the 6th pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, Detroit is pleased to to select...

from the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League, Evan Bouchard.

Evan is an incredibly talented defender who can provide some much needed offence to our defensive corps with his tremendous passing ability and hockey sense. We truly believe he can become a staple on our top pairing for years to come and with his size and strength, that could come sooner rather than later.

The Vancouver Canucks (@DJB ) are on the clock.

We are excited to have the opportunity to add a wonderful young man to our organization . We feel very strongly about Quinton and feel that he adds a strong offensive dynamic to our blue line. We spoke pre drsft about adding a defenceman and we loved Hughes all along the draft process !

I think on a tablet or phone, it's the same process, except that you tap and hold rather than right click,

With the 8th overall selection in the 2018 NHL entry draft, the Chicago Blackhawks are proud to select...

Joe Veleno out of the QMJHL.

Joe-Veleno.jpg


Joe Veleno Scouting Report

Centre — shoots Left
Born January 13th, 2000 — Kirkland, Quebec
Height 6’1″ — Weight 195 lbs [185 cm / 88 kg


Veleno has tremendous speed and outstanding acceleration. It is his skating skill that truly gave him a leg up on older competition and earned him the exceptional player status. He is silky smooth on his skates. Veleno has the ability to take a defender wide and cut to the net. He also has the agility and edgework to beat a defender in a one-on-one situation off the rush. Veleno is strong on the puck, and works well down low and in the cycle game at the junior level.

Veleno is more of a playmaker than a goal scorer. He has great vision, hockey sense, and passing skills. Veleno reads the play well and anticipates where his teammates will be. He uses his speed and agility to open up passing lanes. He also has the ability to put the puck through tight spaces, and make tape-to-tape passes to set up linemates in good scoring areas. Veleno has very good hockey sense, and seems to always make the right play with the puck on his stick. He needs to add muscle to his frame and get more power on his shot to be a consistent goal scorer. He could also be quicker on his release.

EDMONTON OILERS select RW Oliver Wahlstrom, USA U-18 (NTDP)

The sniper should would be a great addition to the McDavid line, a few years down the road. He has the potential to be a 40G winger playing with McDavid.
