Wallenius has 10pts

 

[Burrowsaurus]

I love the BMo pick, I really like how they used their later round picks to get the likes of Ellinas, BMo, and Moore types in 2024 draft class (which with Yakemchuk as the top draft looks like a sneaky haul for Ottawa), but even Elliasson at 2nd pick is a high risk/greater rewards type pick.

It’s all relative to competiton, but BMo and Ellinas are jumping out with their start out of the gates.

Isn’t Ellinas well below ppg right now

 

[BondraTime]

Anyone who's watched Barrie know what slot Eliasson is playing in?

That was a stretch of truly atrocious drafting

That was a stretch of truly atrocious drafting

Sens should look at what they started doing differently in 2021 and fire everyone responsible for it.

Anyone who's watched Barrie know what slot Eliasson is playing in?

Have not watched but according to OHL site which provides lines .. He has been 2nd pair LD the last 3 games...

That was a stretch of truly atrocious drafting

I prefer this than having him and Donovan sit for 1/2 the season.

He never stood out as a great NHL prospect from the moment we drafted him.

To me, he is what a lot of people consider Branny - he just doesn't have any tools to fit the NHL.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Get him on team

Abramov 1g

Yakemchuk 1a

 

[Sens in Process]

Five games in and Yakemchuk has been really good to start the season.

A couple of interesting things about Calgary:
Listening to a recent broadcasters, Calgary is the second best team in the league in shot suppression. They only give up like 24 shots per game. Last night, they held a fairly good offensive team to just 17 shots and still lost 4 -2. What will be all too familiar to Sens fans, goaltending has been subpar for Calgary.

The team has a hard time generating offense 5 on 5. The team just doesn't have the horses to control the puck and make plays in the offensive zone. Tulk and Kindel( a draft eligible projected to be 2nd or 3rd rounder) are by far the best offensive players. But beyond that, there really isn't that much.

On Yakemchuck, he is currently paired with Hunter Aura (who just turned 17). Aura is a good young player who has some good hockey sense and makes some smart plays moving the puck up the ice. However, he is very risk averse , and will often opt to rim the puck around boards or direct a shot on net rather making the cross ice pass to the Yak. Yakemchuk, at times, won't get a ton of touches during long stretches of the game and then start will imposing himself with a shift or two that makes you take notice. . He is still picking up points on the PP and Calgary has like doubled its PP efficiency since his return.

His first game back was by far his worst. Calgary totally shutdown Swift Current, who only had 8 shots after the 2nd period, but the game was tied at 1-1. So, in the the third, Yakemchuk started making ill-advised pinches, forcing the play and it resulted in him being a -3 in the game.

But since then, I find Yakemchuk has been real good defensively, showing a commitment to the system and to reducing his unforced errors.

We are beginning to see the makings of a two way D-man. Paul McFarland seems like a good coach and I think he will help with his development.

Yakemchuk's skating has improved, especially compared to last year at this time. He looks stronger and less awkward, but there are times when he falls or loses his balance for no apparent reason. But as he continue to grow into his body, we will see this less and less IMO. He is currently listed at 6'4, 207 pounds according to the whl website.

We are indebted to your insistence on picking Yakemchuk and why he should be the pick at 7. Thanks for keeping us in the loop, in my case I didn’t really see much of him, he looked like a star offensive d-man in the video clips but internet scouts and media were talking about his IQ and combine interview. He takes a lot of risks, but much like EK65, has the skills to back it up. He is Makarish.

I do get a little satisfaction from hearing radio/podcaster personalities and our GM rave about his hockey sense, when so many scouts/pundits were saying it was average at best. Along with his skating, hockey sense (lack thereof) would be a fatal flaw exposed at the NHL level. His skating needs to improve for him to become a star player, but I think he gets there.

I didn't expect him to be so coachable. Green mentioned how quickly he absorbed and applied information. I can see that he is trying to be a more responsible player in the WHL this year, notwithstanding his first game.

Yakemchuk's skating has improved, especially compared to last year at this time. He looks stronger and less awkward, but there are times when he falls or loses balance for no apparent reason. But as he continue to grow into his body, we will see this less and less IMO. He is currently listed at 6'4, 207 pounds according to the whl website.

Wish advanced stats were tracking for junior. His lack of 5v5 production is worrying for me. This is his 4th season in the league

He looked good in the NHL, preseason notwithstanding.

I am not worried about 5v5 yet. Long way to go.

Montgomery, Ellinas & Yakemchuk out to a good start of their season.

Need to see some more offensive output from Ellinas.

Is it just me who confuses the names of Ellinas, Wallenius, Eliasson? Never know which one's which.

Canadian, Finn, Swede.

Not to rain on the parade, but 7 points in 11 games for Ellinas, even if 6 of those points are goals, isn't production worth getting excited about.

Also a PPG is the floor for a 19 year old prospect like Montgomery playing in the USHL. Almost all decent prospects his age are already playing in college, but he may be a bit of a late bloomer.

What makes Montgomery enticing is his tools. 6'4 with above average skating and some skill. Definitely a long-term project, but the assets are there to be a player one day.

Next year we will draft Aapo Eranus from the Finnish league.

I agree with all of this.

If Yak ends up being close to as good when he makes the Senators roster as he showed in preseason, I almost won't care if any of the other prospects make it.

The more the merrier obviously, but I like the look of Javon so far too.

Stutzle standing his ground. That shot from tkatchuk is wild but maybe he wanted the change

That’s happened a lot this season. Winger doesn’t get the guy with the puck and the d get backed up
