Prospect Info: The 2019 Entry NHL Draft Thread - Part II

[John Mandalorian]

It should but I guess ur not saving cause you need to buy the box . Here I have free upgrading from the place I got the box . If it runs IPTV you can watch literally anything

Ok...it seems like it probably won’t work. I’m able to watch nhl games through the amazon fire stick and a ps4.

Seider is a very interesting prospect, but a pretty tough one to gauge... not much history of high end prospects in DEL, Germany is a D1A country, No NA play... you have to evaluate purely on what your eyes see and try to not let it be jaded by lower competition/DEL hockey. I personally see a very toolsy young defensemen that either has hockey IQ issues, or needs a couple good coaches to bring the mental game along. I'd also like to see him get a good skating coach, while he is a good skater... he is flawed. I think there is high end ability there if you round out his stride. Probably a 3-4 year project, but in a weaker defensemen sort of draft, he probably has the best tool set to work with. A team deep on young defense should take a chance on him past the middle part of the first. If the Avs walked away from day 1 with a top 7-8 forward and Seider, I'd be pretty happy.

Who are the notable prospects in the 5-10 range and 20-25 range??

Podkolzin is who I realistically want with the Ottawa pick, he possesses everything I love in a prospect. Byram and Cozens are also on my wish list.

I'm with you tiger. I think he is a realistic target to expect and man is he fun to watch. Would fit in well with all of our Russians too. Can't say I'd be mad

Nice to see you posting again tiger. I wouldn't mind any of those selections either. Can't lie though Kakko is who Im hoping for

 

[AW8]

My hopes in order:
Kakko
Hughes
Dach
Cozens
Pods
Byram

Any is For me. Right now anything is gravy. Loved Dutchy but we made out like bandits.

 

[AvsFan29]

I just want a center, and the top 8 is packed with great centers

I love Dutchy but ironically love his injury even more

I love me some Podzi, even with his contract situation. One of the few prospects in this draft I've actually seen any full games of and I love him. Reminds me of the first time I watched Panarin play in the KHL...I never watched Panarin in the MHL or VHL...but more explosive.

 

[Balthazar]

Regarding Podkolzin, is the "Russian Factor" worrying?

Regarding Podkolzin, is the "Russian Factor" worrying?

I don't think so, but I remember reading that he's signed for the next two to three years (can't recall which one it is) and will play in Russia for his entire contract. So if we do draft him, we won't see him for the next two years at minimum.

He'd have to be quite a bit better than the next guy in line for me to be comfortable with that though.

Thats shitty. I want him in training camp in September if we draft him.

 

[Makar to MacK]

Thats ****ty. I want him in training camp in September if we draft him.

Of course, I would think that would drop him down quite a bit as the window with MacK's sweet contract is limited. Whoever we get with the Sens pick needs to have an immediate impact imo.

 

[arun]

Watch us snag both kakko and iPodkolzin

 

[Ivan13]

Absolutely no to anyone that will for sure be three years away from contributing anything in the top 5.

 

[Vaslof]

Kaapo Kakko playing his first Liiga game as a 1C today. Team is dealing with injuries and suspensions.

 

[UncleRisto]

Watch Chicago win the lottery and the NHL immediately cream its pants collectively. Hughes will help sell outdoor games.

 

[LOFIN]

Kaapo Kakko playing his first Liiga game as a 1C today. Team is dealing with injuries and suspensions.

And international duty. Still, I think it's also about shaking up the lineup. Our normal 1st C Filppula (who has been the C for Kakko) has been "demoted" to the 2nd line.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Kaapo Kakko playing his first Liiga game as a 1C today. Team is dealing with injuries and suspensions.

If Kakko can find his footing as a C he'd have the potential to overtake Hughes.

 

[cgf]

IIRC Podkolzin has 2 years left on his KHL deal after this one. So his arrival schedule would match pretty much everyone else's except for Hughes & Kakko

 

[Avs_19]

1. Jack Hughes
2. Kaapo Kakko
3. Vasili Podkolzin
4. Dylan Cozens
5. Kirby Dach

Russian right wing Vasili Podkolzin has jumped three spots from our October ranking to land at No. 3 this month. Podkolzin, who is currently playing for his national team at the World Junior A Challenge in Bonnyville, Alta., is a complete player who can excel in all situations. His style of play and approach to the game reminds me of Pavel Datsyuk.

I know nothing about Podkolzin so I'm looking forward to watching him at the WJC. The hype around him appears to be growing.

 

[S E P H]

That's how my top 5 looks right now as well, but I also think Hench isn't wrong about Podkolzin's issues either - he is far from a perfect prospect and there is a gap between the first two with the rest of the pack.
