NHL Entry Draft 2024 NHL Draft Talk

[DJB]

Here is some more stuff Martineau:

One of craziest things about the combine is tracking which players are getting exclusive dinner invites with a team or team(s)

Sennecke has been linked to Columbus and Utah.

Iginla linked to Habs

Martineau has a ton of draft content from the combine.

Keep these tweets coming if they are draft relevant

He's been posting all day. There's tons of them.

[Senscore]

Did the Habs spring for dessert with Iginla, yes or no?

This is vital information.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

I'll be salty af if the Habs take Iginla, but everyone and their mom is linking him to them.

 

[BondraTime]

Hopefully they do, would be great for the Sens

 

[Micklebot]

Agreed, I like Iginla but if he goes in the top 6 it's pushing someone I'd prefer down to us.

Also with Lindstrom

 

[Dionysus]

A little bigger than I thought, saw this on Habs draft talk from the combine
Catton at 5.10 3/4 175

Some reason I though he has one of the generous 5’10 160 guys lol

Interesting, a bit slight, but will certainly add some strength and weight.

One of the few guys in this draft who could be an elite scorer.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

You're sleeping on Iginla my friend, he has had a great season even while being on his team's 2nd line and PP2.

 

[BondraTime]

Yes I have paid attention to him as well

 

[Hale The Villain]

I think they may want to shift Iginla to center.

But I definitely see him as a better fit at wing at the NHL level

I haven't watched any prospects this year, nor for the last few years since 2020 when we had the two high first rounders, but going off what I've been reading there's a few players that stand out from where we're selecting.

Carter Yakemchuk
Beckett Sennecke
Cayden Lindstrom

All size and skill. I'd be happy with any of those three.

Iginla/Buium/Dickinson seem alright as well. I'm leaning towards a forward preference at #7 and then taking dmen at #25/#39. Ultimately you just take the BPA though.

Very intrigued with what I've read about Yakemchuk, seems like he has all the tools you'd want for a RHD with a physical edge to boot.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

I’m kinda getting the feeling that demidov iginla and sennecke all go top 5.

[Emerica]

Really hoping for EJ Emery with our Boston pick. Tall mobile RD on his way to UND seems like a match made in heaven for the Sens.

Yep, he’s been on my radar since about Dec. I hoped there would be a chance he’d be there with our 2nd rnd pick back then but now i think there is no chance. If he makes it to 25th i would love the pick

7 - Sennecke
25 - EJ Emery
39 - Cole Beaudoin

Nice haul

 

[GermanSpitfire]

There is no Iginla market up yet, but the only avaailable slots are 10.5 and 13.5 so I would safely assume he would be in one of those positions once they were released

If either of those are the line, you gotta bang the over

 

[GCK]

Iginla going to the Habs would be hilarious. To me he’s not a top 10 pick. My list of forwards after Celebrini is

Demidov - based solely on others views
Catton
Sennecke
Lidstrom
Helenius
Iginla
MBN

I’d avoid Eiserman

Will be hard to pass on dickinson if he’s there

 

[Wondercarrot]

I can’t even decide if I want a forward or a dman in the draft anymore lol
I was all over Silayev, then Buium, now Iginla

….then just thinking of having Sanderson, Silayev at 6’7 and Kleven at 6’5 each anchoring a pairing seems extremely appealing.

 

[SENATOR]

Sens list should be, when taking the best player available:

1..Tij Iginla
2..Cayden Lindstrom
3..Zayne Parekh
4..Zeev Buium
5..Konsta Helenius

 

[BondraTime]

Dickinson an absolute freak

3.6% body fat. Next closest was at 7.1%

Not sure what to think of that. That’s very, very low.

 

[JungleBeat]

I remember when people here were getting hyped from Colin White's draft combine results.

Is it the Chychrun diet?

 

[Senator Stanley]

Pretty sure Josh Norris was a combine stand out in his day, too. Never hurts to know who the exceptional athletes are.

Results, or at least top 25 in each category, are being updated here - https://link.nhl.com/centralscouting/public/

Where do you get the combine results from?
Edit: see Stanley posted a link

I've only watched the defence so far, still getting to the forwards. Can you give the sparknotes on Sennecke? Seems to be a big riser

Dickinson an absolute freak

3.6% is very unhealthy. I'm hoping for his own sake he just temporarily cut to impress at the combine, because staying at that for long spans can be very detrimental to your health.
