Here is a potential Rookie Tournament lineup that we could ice (yes, I'm that bored):
Sidorov-Gauthier-Colangelo
Myatovic-Gaucher-Sennecke
Pastujov-Terrance-Pitre
Blais-Procyszyn/Mysak-Masse
Dionicio-Luneau
Hinds-Warren
K. Smith-Port
T. Smith
Suchanek
Buteyets
I excluded all of our European and NCAA prospects because they don't usually participate in these tournaments. I kept Dionicio in because I have no clue where he will be next season.

I think Lucas Pettersson is going to start appearing in the top 10 sooner rather than later...
He really does look like a young William Karlsson in the videos I've seen of him. That should put him in any top 10 list. He'll definitely be an NHL player...the only question is how good he'll be.Anything particular makes you feel that?
I have him already ,btw
Sennecke iMO is the linchpin between the Ducks and Sharks young forward groups. If he really becomes something, i'd give us the clear nod overall in the long-run. I like Leo more than Celebrini by a decent margin actually but Smith is probably gonna be better than some of our other top Fs.

Yeah Smith probably will be better than Zegras and McTavish. Smith has that dynamic creativity but with a very good shot that should make him a better goal scorer than Zegras. Defense side SJ needs a few more Dickinson like picks but they could always trade for one in the future.
It's gonna be interesting seeing the Rivalry return and it may happen when LA has hit rock bottom after Doughty/Kopitar retire.
I think with all of these highly skilled guys the difference will be which of them manage to hang in the NHL physically that ultimately decides who wins championships. They all have enough skills to fall victim to trying to finesse things too much.
The systems are both big and skilled so it will be interesting to see these battles. Notably most of the Sharks big forwards have a couple years on the Ducks. But Ducks have the Solberg.

Given Smith and Leo are same draft year I feel he should be included when comparing the 2
Also I guess I am higher on Pettersson than some are. I think he is definitely top 10 for us

I have never heard of Ratzlaff before but man do we need him and I have so many photoshops that I will need to see!

Is he 6'4 and yells at refs a lot ? If he is then definitely need to acquire him.
That doesn't mean he is playing in the CHL, it's just an option.
Well the high picks usually mean something. It's the late picks where teams take fliers on players, this case is somewhat up in the air.
Ducks have very positive history with Saginaw, so I would not mind at all: Mintyukov, Dionicio.

They used genetic splicing to create an embryo from the DNA of Perry and Getzlaf, then abandoned the child in western Canada where it was raised by wolves and wendigo.

Apparently a BUF prospect. Was hoping we’d draft him in '23 for shits and giggles. Dec '22:

Hvidston is also again participating (on Colangelo's team), wonder if anyone ends up signing him. Think that rumor people started that him complaining about the camp is what led him to not be signed can officially be considered BS though

Or... it could be what blackballed him. He was the only one not signed to an ELC contract that went to the training in Florida. We know he didn't get drafted in the re-draft and will be heading back to juniors. It's kinda odd nobody took a flyer on Hvidston in the draft.
Maybe now he knows to ...
The fact that Hvidston did not get drafted in this draft is curious for sure though.
