NHL Entry Draft 2024 NHL Draft Talk

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Perhaps scouts of nhl teams see something that fans don't.

The problem is that fans think that they know everything and they don't understand what the actual job is that Senators scouts have to do. Fans have this oversimplified view as if the scouts job is to take the most TALENTED player who will project to be a star, but the reality is that most Senators scouts are demonic entities that require negative emotions to feed off of, and the only way that they can create those negative emotions is to go off the board and select a player who they could have had at 15.

I’m guessing teams are prioritizing size on D especially after the last couple years the top 4 teams all had big mobile dmen .

Perhaps that’s why Parekh and Buium fell

 

[WallyD]

Really fantastic work by San Jose to end up with the 11th pick from Karlsson, when he was basically unmoveable.

So Celebrini and now Dickenson... Such a rough night for SJ! Poor suffering team! Wow!

See, this is a better post than Grieg plus a pick for Tanev that you made yesterday

 

[SensFactor]

Sharks improving fast...Celebrini, Dickinson, Walman

With the track record you can see why there’s no faith.

Colin white Logan brown lassi Thomson jbd Boucher Ben Roger

Our fans actually really wanted Logan Brown that year………….

 

[Burrowsaurus]

You think Galchenyuk is a good hockey player. I don't know if you have any merit for player assessment

Yeah that’s a real shot. Go see that clap bomb against Winnipeg

Our fans actually really wanted Logan Brown that year………….

Yeah and our pro scouts seemed agree with them. Scary.

 

[2CHAINZ]

I dunno. I've been listening to the rap battle between Drake and Lamar on repeat. hahaha.

a cease and desist is for hoes

 

[DrEasy]

If anyone is curious who we're going to take on day 2, check this out:

https://www.eliteprospects.com/draft-center?view=stats&sort=pim

PIMs and toughness is #1 priority for this scouting staff. Overrules all other factors.

We're drafting Richard Kiel next. He doesn't play hockey and has been dead for 10 years, but he is big and mean.

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

If Yakemchuk pans out then we could have a blueline with both Tyler Kleven and Yakemchuk. Sounds not fun to play against.

 

[hockey20000]

not just the sharks the god damn devils gonna be a legit force within 5 years with the players there taking

Sharks improving fast...Celebrini, Dickinson, Walman

 

[L'Aveuglette]

This won't go over well, but maybe they were struck by how tissue soft the team was when they watched all year, and decided when guys are close, they're going for the one with an edge.

You have dozens of those guys left from the 2nd round on. You don't need to find grit at #7.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Yeah, but this is literally a new era. We have a new GM, we are building a new scouting staff. We have a new owner. This isn't the same Senators of the Melnyk era. Please let go and try to be a bit more trusting of the process. I trust Staios. He has a vision and I believe he knows what he's doing.

With the track record you can see why there’s no faith.

I didn't.

 

[Liver King]

It's like we're afraid of star quality. Flames and Devils must be ecstatic at what fell in their laps.

A 30 goal 70 pt 6’3 dman

If he was a 5’10 Swede half you people would be stoked

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Size and skill usually are pretty helpful in the NHL too lol.

Absolutely. But you need to be able to play. I’m not saying he can’t. I’m saying he looks like the one guy here that may not play

 

[bert]

@bert offered to bet me everything he owns Buium would be gone in the top 6

I also said the next 12 could go any which way after 1. I also guaranteed Yakemchuk would go top 10. Sens should be trading chychrun and their 2nd for this pick to get Buium.

 

[Senscore]

Philly trading back?

 

[h2]

I didn't.

A lot of our fans did, it was a very popular pick at the time.

 

[Senscore]

Minnesota moves up one spot for a third.


Uh ok

 

[SensBrawler]

Moving up one spot?

I remember when Dorion did that to get Logan Brown.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

The Logan Brown special.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

What a dumbass move lol.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Minnesota moves up one spot for a third.


Uh ok

It stops someone else from swapping with PHI.

 

[Ouroboros]

People savaged Dorion when he did this for Logan Brown.
