KD mentioned he wants size on the back end. Im not a fan of smaller PP D. look and Sanderson from OTT does he effect the game more vlasic? yes he puts up more pts. would you rather have vlasic for 6 X 4.6 or Sanderson at 8 X $8.05? me its Vlasic all day. its about how much you effect the game and at what cost. you spend $35 mil on your D and there is nothing left for your goalie or forwards. in playoffs depth seems to win out over stars. IE a few guys that take up a ton of space and then you have a 8 people on your roster at league min. the next D in the hughs maker, fox mold is going to get $11 mil
2 games that could effect the hawks draft. Vancouver vs Nashville and Dallas at Vegas. tonight

I agree but its about salary cap and were you spend the money
factoring in how much of the salary cap they use up. Sanderson is bring paid like a #1 vlasic is being paid like a #3

In this scenario, I want him too. Give me the highest offensive upside player available, and he's probably it.

Having him with Bedard would be like having Draisaitl and Kucherov on the same team. Offense would be scary good.

Pronounced T-Lay
He is the highest ceiling offensive player in this draft, and he also can play defense and he competes. I like him a lot. Gladly take him at 2.

I agree with 1,2,3,4 . Sennecke is looking more and more like top 10 at the very least

Through 'unimaginable' loss, top 2024 NHL Draft prospect Michael Hage carries on
Hage, a projected first-round pick at the draft, lost his dad in an accident last summer. Their shared hockey dream has carried him through.

I’d be happy with Demidov and Hage in the 1st

Meet Cole Beaudoin, the fittest, strongest player in the 2024 NHL Draft
Projected as a late-first or second-round pick, Beaudoin has earned the respect of everyone he's worked with on his path to the NHL Draft.
theathletic.com
This kid is projected to be a late first, early 2nd. His development jump has been tremendous. Will likely be the talk of the town when prospects compete in the combine. Could be a guy Davidson and company really take a hard look at later.
With the Golden Goldens now taking it to a game 7 with Dallas...a victory in the series finale keeps the slim hopes of thatcTB#20 turningbinto#19 if Vegas then goes on to win their next series in such a scenario...So let us all hope for Vegas to beat Dallas in Game 7 and advance to keep these hopes alive.
It may not seem like much ...just1spot difference ...but if tgerevisxacorosoect JD likes better to draft then it would suck if he just goes off the board thatc1 spot ahead of our TB pick...so always better to draf at that 1 slot earlier....Go Vegas!

Sounds like a KD favorite, assuming his skating is good enough. Could be a target at 34. He’s definitely a type of forward we need more of in the prospect pool.

That article really sells him! One thing I thoroughly believe is that hard work is just as much of a skill as any other.

I doubt he's there at 34. Power forward and a coaches dream. Character guy that projects as a 3rd line center or so. His skating is very so-so. He is hard to move off the puck, good penalty killer, and great around the front of the net. His offensive upside is limited. Think Colby Barlow with more playmaking and less goal scoring. Not really sure he's flashed a ton of offensive upsideMeet Cole Beaudoin, the fittest, strongest player in the 2024 NHL Draft

I don't think Davidson will be sold on skating that "may come with time".

He has one more year remaining on his KHL contract and is expected to come over to North America after the season, so this wouldn’t be a Michkov situation
Sorry, but all those naysayers about Lindstrom due to injuries have put Demidov in the same camp.....and then, of course, there's the Russian Factor....the injury just made him drop 5 slots, IMO.

I view EJ Emery as a candidate at 20. I’ve been pleased with his U18. Right handed defenseman. Granted there’s a lot of “Emery shoots wide and misses the net” but that’s ok, you’re not getting a superstar at the spot. 34th pick would be perfect but you don’t get greedy if the scouts like the player by hoping they last another 14 picks.

RIP Fugu
Assuming we stay at 2 how would people feel if Davidson rolled dice and went high risk/high reward
#2 = RW Ivan Demidov
#20 = LW Igor Chernyshov
Trade #34 + #54 to get back into late part of 1st round = RW Nikita Artamonov
#62 = RD Luca Marrielli
Thoughts?
