Prospect Info: 2024-25 Prospect Thread

[The Real JT]

Today’s fun fact which I suspect many of you already know.

Before the Caps selected Cole Hutson with the 11th pick of the second round in the 2024 draft there were five other defensemen chosen in that round before him including the Sabres who picked a Dman immediately before the Hutson selection.

Btw the Caps also chose Ryan Leonard in the first round of the 2023 draft.

Sometimes quality players fall into your lap depending on how the draft goes (e.g Eiserman), but when it is all said and done, nothing beats a great scouting department…. Oh, and picks. It helps to hold onto those too.

What a year he’s having. We need those later round picks to hit and an influx of youth talent so hopefully he will provide that. Smaller stature but the new age NHL is showing that players like Quinn can play

Quiet nights for Eiserman, Nelson, and Nurmi as they return to their college and junior teams

Cam Berg finally back from a long injury for North Dakota

Xavier Veilleux continuing to impress in USHL 19 points in 32 games. 6th round defenseman

Goal for Eiserman in his 2nd game back from WJC. 2 periods to go

 

[SI90]

Eiserman again lol back to PPG



Eiserman again! With his 2nd of the game he’s back to PPG

 

[SI90]

The pass he made on the 2nd goal and then to get around the net looks like a set play. Even if it wasn’t it’s a hell if a play and anticipation by Eiserman

It’s funny the criticism of Eiserman on the main boards is all he does is score goals. That’s the one thing you can’t teach you can learn and get better in the other aspects of the game if you have a good work ethic which from all I’ve read he does. I’m sure some here remember a certain quote from Buddy Ryan all he does is catch touchdowns.

Yeah. Combine that with his draft age (3 weeks from being in the 2025 draft), and what he's doing looks even better. He appears to have better offensive instincts that Wahlstrom, as well as better agility. imo he still looks lost in the D-zone. But he looks a little less lost.

It's going to be interesting to see how it all turns out especially wrt the strength of the '24 draft class being possibly far better than expected.
