NHL Entry Draft 2024 NHL Draft Talk

[Senscore]

Harder to call shots later in the draft, but these are Sens-types for their three picks coming up...

F - Burnevik, Powell, Montgomery, Ellinas, Thorpe, Pridham, Sterner, Solovey, Allard, Boilard, Aspinall
D - Roberts, McIsaac, Misskey, Woolley, Golicic, Muhonen, Mayes
G - Gidlof, St-Hilaire

2 out of 3 not bad.

 

[Senator Stanley]

We have a type.

 

[Hale The Villain]

6'2 Lucas Ellinas is probably going to be the smallest player we take this year

 

[BondraTime]

lmao Bondra called it

Nope, close but was 3 months from being an overage

Obscure US league though is a go to for the Sens

Nevermind, there it is with Montgomery

Sens scouting team has a checklist.

The 4th is the Bob Janecyk zone, and he’ll never be denied!

 

[Speatleysson]

Yep... 6'3+ or bust. Welcome Montgomery

I like this pick for some reason. He looks athletic.

Most important scout to fire honestly.

 

[Joeyjoejoe]

I somehow like our 4th round picks than the 2nd round.

Just like how I like the Stephen Halliday pick more than the Nordberg one in 2022.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Three solid projects at forward.
This draft has been steady and well-calculated, low risk with medium-high reward.
No "sexy" high risk-high reward pick.

 

[thinkwild]

Got some good potential big lumps of clay to mold.

 

[Golden_Jet]

Not sure why I bother getting excited for the draft anymore.

Same clowns still running the show = same results. Made obvious picks in 2020 at 3rd and 5th but after that haven’t done much at all to warrant keeping their jobs.

Disagree, there were only a few of us , who wanted Sandy at 5.

Drafting for size and grit is also not something that is unique to Ottawa. Every team values that, and the only teams I see consistently taking undersized skill players are basement teams. Maybe there's a correlation...

Exactly.

I think Yakemchuk is a pretty good high risk/high reward pick.

 

[GCK]

I think Yakemchuk is a pretty good high risk/high reward pick.

Same with Eliasson. That frame and aggression at 17, nice.

 

[Big Muddy]

104, 112, 117th - lots of 4th round picks this year. Hopefully we get lucky and one pans out.

 

[Wondercarrot]

Ah the doom and gloom throughout.
Love this place! lol

Our 1st 2 picks are home run swings. Love it.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Brian Burke is has sent Staios his resume.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

I think Yakemchuk is a pretty good high risk/high reward pick.

I think he's a safe bet to play in the NHL with his size and physicality. Developing into a Pietrangelo/Burns hybrid will depend heavily on how he progresses in his skating and defensive IQ.

First one is. Not sure what the upside is with the Eliasson guy.

 

[Micklebot]

Interesting

 

[RAFI BOMB]

I would like to see the Sens draft the Vaughn twins with some of their remaining picks. Jaxsin and Corbin Vaughn certainly fit the kind of player they have been targeting so far in this draft.

Think we can poach anyone from the Ducks?

Only have one pick left (136)

That tracks. Lots of down time in the amateur scouting department until the season starts.
