Prospect Info: 2024-25 Ducks Prospects

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Sennecke is AHL eligible. He can go for a conditioning stint, but I'm pretty aure his birthday means it's NHL or juniors.
True, can't be assigned to AHL, as he is neither 20yo by the cutoff or has accrued 4 jrs seasons. But he can do NHL camp, along with NHL or AHL exhibition games and 9 NHL games, AHL conditioning games, then World Jrs and return to OHL for CHL playoffs.

It's debatable if that's better or worse than a steady OHL season, but I think to learn structure from Quenneville is the best way for him to spend most of the year.

Sennecke is going to get the Carlsson treatment I think

Probably plays 40 games in the NHL next year.
I don’t see it tbh, if the goal is playoffs and the roster is already

Gauthier carlsson _______
Zegras mctavish colangelo
Vatrano strome terry
Killorn _____ ______

And we’re openly talking about finding a top 6 forward, where does sennecke play? We’re prob grabbing a 4c in offseason, and sennecke shouldn’t be playing in nhl on 4th line.

He might get 9 games unless there is an injury of some sort

I thought it was crazy they had their choice of Dickinson and buium at that pick
Last year's top 12 was pretty crazy how deep it was.

I think he gets the Luneau treatment.

9 NHL games
AHL conditioning stint
WJC
OHL
AHL playoffs
 
I would expect the club to appeal his lack of eligibility. There have been success appeals in recent years IIRC.

Tangentially, I wonder why more prospects aren't loaned out to Swiss league. Seems like a good place in between Major Junior and Professional.
Who else has been granted eligibility other then Wright? And that was based heavily on Covid effecting things.
 
Yeah you can tell when Sennecke was able to control the play a bit he was the best looking player on the ice, at least for Oshawa. They just don't or couldn't focus their play around him when he is on the ice. He has great vision. Countless times you can see him looking at his teammates and creates room for himself to make a play to them but it doesn't turn into anything.

London is just a crazy good team. 1 loss all of the playoffs, a complete team.
 
IIRC it used to be AHL-eligible for NA skaters on e they hit age 19, no?

A signed CHL prospect is eligible for the AHL if they turn 20 years old before Jan 1st or they have played four seasons in the CHL (they are usually exceptional status players granted to play a year earlier in the CHL). Thus, it is only NHL or CHL for those who turn 20 years old after Dec 31st.

Signed NCAA or European players are eligible to play in the AHL as 18-year olds.

Here's an in-depth article on when a prospect can play at the AHL level by Defend the Nest (a San Diego Gulls blog site).

That's some serious high praise for Dickinson. I love his defense (which is why he was one of the prospects I wanted at #3), but he dropped because scouts didn't believe his offensive ability to be high. He put in work over the summer and he's showing he has that offense. What a find at #11 for the Sharks!
He is a great prospect, but it can be difficult to evaluate on such a dominant team. He struggled at the WJC last year, so I will be curious to watch him at his next stop. It's still tough to see how good he really is.

Dickinson is so young that he doesn't turn 19 until June! His path is gonna be a crazy one because he is too good for the CHL and will probably be bumped up to the NHL. I just hope the Sharks ease him in on the 3rd pairing and go from there. Another possibility is for the Sharks have a deal with some SHL team to loan to for a season.

I hope they rush him into a 1st pairing and ruin his confidence and potential

It's based on birthday, not season. If he turns 20 before January 1, he's AHL eligible. If not, he has to stay in juniors. His birthday is in January, so no AHL for Sennecke next season.

I think nhl is the move for Dickinson, and find him a safe partner to pair with him.

I say give him the 9 games over a period of a few weeks to see where he's at then send him back so he knows what he needs to work on.

3rd overall picks shouldn't be used on long term projects IMO I am hopeful for his future but out of a 3rd pick i think you want a little more certainty. We'll see
 
Unless Sennecke really stands out at training camp and earns his spot, I think he has no business playing in the NHL next season. Not sure the OHL is the right option for him either, and sadly he’s not eligible for the AHL, nor the NCAA given his ELC.

Yep kinda unfortunate situation for us on what to do with him
