Prospect Info: 2024-25 Ducks Prospects

[FiveTacos]

He's not AHL eligible based on the NHL/CHL agreement. The new rules allowing CHL players to jump to the NCAA, would allow him to play college hockey next year though.

Except he signed an ELC, so that option closed for him.

Ah that's right

As a guy who doesn't know anything about restrictions for prospects, what are Sennecke's options next year?

Cause I don't think throwing him into the NHL is the way to go and I definitely think he's outgrowing the OHL.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they do what they did with McTavish and Luneau. Give him up to 9 games in the NHL spread across October and November. Maybe give him an AHL conditioning stint in that time. Then send him to the WJC and back to the OHL after the tournament is over.

Sennecke will probably take the Luneau route than Mac route. Sennecke needs to bulk up heavily or he will be broken.

Luneau's purpose at the NHL level was to bulk up for half the season. He complained about all he did was body build and just wanted to play games. Tristan got 7 NHL games and 6 AHL games on a conditioning stint, all being healthy. On Dec 10, 2022, Luneau got assigned to WJC camp.

Mac got injured in his third NHL game on Oct 18th. Then got assigned to go San Diego for a conditioning stint on Oct 28th. Played 3 games there. Called back up to the NHL club on Nov 6th. Afterwards, played six consecutive games at the NHL to reach his 9-game limit on Nov 18th. Mac played LW at the NHL level and Center in the AHL. Anaheim was finally getting some forwards back from injury and there was no room for Mac on the roster, which made it easier to send Mac back to the OHL to play center. Re-assigned to the Petes on Nov 25th.

Out of curiosité, how would you rank these 4 young d prospects in order of best career (#1 the best career out of the 4, #4 the worst career out of the 4). And use your own definition of ''best'' or ''worst'' career.

Pavel Mintyukov, Olen Zellweger, Jackson Lacombe, Tristan Luneau

Tough to say because defensemen have a tendency to break out later than forwards and a lot of these kids are still really young.

Ranking them by how they're going right now,

1. Lacombe
Big gap
2. Zellweger
3. Mintyukov
4. Luneau

Ranking them by the flashes of overall potential all of them have shown at one point or another?

1 Mintyukov
2. Lacombe
3. Luneau
4. Zellweger

But I really wouldn't feel confident trying to project who will have the best career. Everything can change here if the Ducks revamp their development staffing or any of the guys not named Lacombe have a late breakthrough.

Masse finished with a couple goals tonight.

Started out hot, had his injury and hasn’t seemed to really get going yet(tho seems like he’s starting to heat up now)
