NHL Entry Draft 2024 NHL Draft Talk

[hockey20000]

they must be going for buium i would think

 

[bert]

A 30 goal 70 pt 6’3 dman

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

Im fired up about Yakemchuk. Unicorn type player. Unreal skill, size, mean, righty. What's not to like. 30 goals as a d man lol. 120 pims, 5 fights!

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I don't think that's a fair point. Dorion played goalie in Junior A, and he never could draft them.

Dorion, a former goalie who played minor hockey between Cumberland and Gloucester, realized after high school during a tryout with the Jr. Senators that a career on the ice wasn’t realistic.

 

[Qward]

All this wasted time. If they trade up 1 spot, you know who you want. Go up and make the f***ing pick.

Well... from scouting reports. Skating backwards.

To be fair, Karlsson couldn't do that either for his first few years in the league. (and after Cooke) lol

Not the guy I'd have picked but the upside is really intriguing.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Same head scout.

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.

 

[SensFactor]

There goes my boy Zeev.....Wild got a good one

 

[DylanSensFan]

a cease and desist is for hoes

2 Chainz say you good, but he lied

 

[Micklebot]

And Buium is off the board. Would have loved to add him,

 

[albator71]

I agree some fans around here don't what they're talking about. They're acting like spoiled little kid because they didn't get what they wanted Lol

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

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

There aren't many 6'3 RHD that score 30 goals in the 2nd round.

And on the contrary, grit is harder to come by with this younger generation of players. Skill is the thing that there seems to be an abundance of. Pretty much everyone drafted so far has a wicked shot for example.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

I'll sound like a drama queen but my entire evening is ruined.

This team sucked for months only to draft a guy with a bunch of red flags.

 

[coladin]

Way back I had my eye on Yakemchuk, and I am glad we got him. Big kid, has edge and can wire a puck like nobody business. How nice to have our own Bouchard back there!

 

[DylanSensFan]

I thought we got a new head scout?

Same head scout.

 

[Laphroaig]

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

I wanted Chychrun and was pissed that Tyson Jost was off the board. I am not a professional scout.

 

[Micklebot]

I thought we got a new head scout?

Sort of, we fired Mann a while ago and promoted from within

 

[Hale The Villain]

I'll sound like a drama queen but my entire evening is ruined.

This team sucked for months only to draft a guy with a bunch of red flags.

But have you considered that he's tough and takes a lot of PIMs?

 

[SlapJack]

I didn't realize Yakemchuk had sick mitts. Thought he was just a big guy with a big shot, but his hands are not D like at all.

Honestly with the draft being so unpredictable this year, it could turn out to be a genius pick. Or not but we'll just call Ottawa losers of the draft now because it's not too early or anything

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Sharks improving fast...Celebrini, Dickinson, Walman

lol we targetted Walman every time we played them and absolutely bullied him

 

[PatrickEaves]

I thought we got a new head scout?

It's not really our head scout that's the problem. It's that one dude that keeps convincing the team to draft those useless overagers playing in some random US league.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Well... from scouting reports. Skating backwards.

To be fair, Karlsson couldn't do that either for his first few years in the league. (and after Cooke) lol

Nevermind who is showing this... Watch what he shows. This and HockeyProspect's review of him should scare you from drafting him in the top 10


And I will say where he is good. Parekh is better

RD with Nasty... and so much to learn to defend in the NHL

 

[DrEasy]

Moving up one spot to get Buium tells you the drop off they felt there was after him. Minnesota must be ecstatic he fell in their lap too.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Not the guy I'd have picked but the upside is really intriguing.

The upside on every first rounder is intriguing it’s why they get selected there.

 

[2CHAINZ]

2 Chainz say you good, but he lied

When you put your hands on your girl is it self defense cause she bigger than you?
