2023 NHL Entry Draft

[MarkovsKnee]

He is back.

He played 1 game in the KHL around 2 minutes of ice time and he is now playing in the VHL.

4 games - 4 goals - 1 assist - 5 points

Gotta love those Russian clubs f***ing over their young players. A whole 2 minutes of ice time, eh?!

Did the same to Yurov & Miroshnichenko last year.

Well, at least he's back playing even if it's the VHL.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Emelin injured him in KHL game play, so he's out with a knee injury.

No, he's back and destroying the VHL.

Can we already skip the season and go right now for the lottery ?!?!

I've been asking myself this since last March.

At least in NHL23 you can simulate.

This kid is a franchise center. I won't be taking any questions

 

[Vachon23]

Why wasn't he born 1 year before ?

 

[Mrb1p]

Leo Carlsson feels like watching Barkov all over again. Just a guaranteed top 5 C.

Playing this way in one of the best man's league on the planet at 17 year old..

He would've destroyed the OHL/WHL/Q

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Andrew Cristall is having a heck of a start to his draft season. Paired with his good performance at the Hlinka, he's looking more and more like a top 15 pick. Definitely a riser.

It's not complicated, every prospect in the 1st round is playing great hockey

Classic KHL playing this kid 2 minutes lmao. That league is full of michelle therriens.

 

[tooji]

A top 4 pick sends this team to the next dimension.

 

[Mrb1p]

A top 4 pick sends this team to the next dimension.

Getting a top 3 pick at 15 really changes this franchise.

Such fools letting Caufield fall lmao

 

[Goldenhands]

Why wasn't he born 1 year before ?

To let us draft Slafkovsky first.

 

[Maitz]

I want Bedard but I don’t mind ending with either Carlsson Fantilli or Michkov. Damnnn this year draft is soooooo good

Ya whats 5 billion when you can have 2 billion 1 billion or 4 billion but in 3 years when youve been poor all your life

Yes, he's small. He's only 5'9 but he's a nifty little bugger. The size thing will work against him in this draft. But, considering he was rated late 1st, he's definitely the 1st big riser of the year.

 

[The Great Weal]

Leo Carlsson reminds me of Malkin so much

Such a shame, best talent they've had coming out since Ovechkin and they still treat him like hot garbage. He's clearly too good for the VHL and he deserves to play in the KHL. What a disgrace that country is; holding hostage their own players and ''comrades'' and not wanting them to flourish elsewhere. Anyhow, I don't want to get all political, but this kid would've challenged Bedard for the first overall pick if it weren't for the iron grip exerted by Russia. I value Bedard so highly that that speaks volumes on my opinion of Michkov. He's the only one close to Bedard, in terms of skill level and potential, in my opinion.

Hockey Twitter slowly finding out how good Leo Carlsson is.

It hurts being this right all the time.

I don't think anyone has posted Fantilli's 1st career NCAA goal. Here it is:



He as 1g, 3a and 4 pts in 2gp.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Connor Bedard showing he's not just a pretty boy. This is from Saturday's game. He had 1g, 2a.

It was me defending there

It’s likely we end up drafting a franchise or at least top-like centre this year given how many are available in the top 10. That being said, our centre depth will be pretty stacked next year with suzuki-Dach-Beck-Dvorak-Evans-Mesar. Even if if we trade Dvorak, and move Evans and Mesar to the wings, Suzuki, Dach and Beck will still be 3 out of our 4 centres. We’ll be pretty stacked down the middle and the only problem I see with that is that none of those centres are 4th liners so maybe a trade for a #1 D from our centre depth?
