GDT: 2024 NHL Draft (June 28 - June 29, Las Vegas Sphere)

[Hivemind]

Gross. f*** Connelly

 

[Devil Dancer]

GMGM really getting after that Just For Men look.

 

[Random schmoe]

This one goes out to those who say GMBM doesn't take risks.

I'll let you know what I think about the pick in 5 years.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Hershey signed Thornton too. Seems the organization scouted Prince George a lot

Yeah...not really a fan.

OTOH:

I don’t think people understand how mediocre Eiserman’s game is aside from his shot. This is coming from someone who grew up playing with and against him.

he is very unimpressive and it was good to pass on him but not for someone arguably even more flawed. Connelly was right there.

“When I saw him, I love the skill, the brain, the creativity. Kind of reminds me of Andrew Cristall. He has first round puck play. He
probably slips to the second round because of the size, skating concerns.” – NHL scout, June 2024

Inflated numbers on a high scoring team...including our own Funk.

Yep just realized that watching the highlights.

 

[bacchist]

He won't even get to Hershey until Ovechkin retires.

 

[Calicaps]

they were never picking a kid with Connelly's baggage.

 

[Hivemind]

Connelly was right there.

Connelly is a shitbird. Don't want him.

 

[Ridley Simon]

I hate the pick. They could’ve easily moved back.

I mean shit, what do I know? But this is so far off the radar.

I am over it

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Sami wrote in her Q&A he wasnt even on the team board nor was trading 17 or CMM

they were never picking a kid with Connelly's baggage

 

[hb13xchamps]

Connelly measured in at 160lbs? Good lord that’s small

 

[NobodyBeatsTheWiz]

I was personally hoping Connelly and Buium would be drafted by the same team.

 

[Calicaps]

I was personally hoping Connelly and Buium would be drafted by the same team.

ouch

 

[Cappy76]

Maybe they tried to fall back but if Nashville was eyeing him it would have taken someone 18-21 also wanting to...if they couldn't find a partner then take your guy

I mean, it was a surprise, and tough with Eiserman sitting there, but he was generally rated in the mid-20s. Not that far off the board.

 

[Hivemind]

Who told Anders Lee he didn't have to wear a tie?


f***. Eiserman in our division. Blegh.

 

[Langway]

Eiserman to NYI will obviously be one to tuck away for future reference.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Isles running back their Kiefer Bellows pick from a few years ago, I guess.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Quite a bit of 30+ rankings on him, mid 20s was his high projections. Few people has third round grades on him.

 

[hockeykicker]

i dont know why anyone is making predictions or looking at insiders lol how often are those ever correct?
