HF Habs: 2024 NHL Draft Thread

[Seb]

I'm terrible with comparisons but he makes me think of Anderson. I'm hoping we end up with someone with more skills with our top pick.

Who is the best offensive talent with size?

There’s not many. The top 4 ‘’elite’’ forwards are all relatively small.

With size it’s probably Trevor Connelly, Cayden Lindstrom and Michael Brandsegg-Nygard

Much smarter and diversified than Anderson.

I have a feeling that this thread is about to get a lot more popular

Hemming, MBN, Connelly, Lindstrom are some interesting names to watch.

Heading to the London Knights, Erie Otters game on Friday. Will be watching for Malcom Spence, Matthew Schaeffer and of course Dickinson. Guys we should be watching for the next two drafts. Mostly Spence. High OHL draft pick. Late 2006 forward.

Ill give an update Saturday.

Adding Celebrini Eiserman Demidov or Catton is exactly what the rebuild ordered.

Celebrini or Eiserman or Bust for me.

 

[Habbietat]

are the defenceman good enough to push the better forward prospects down to 5-8 range or we go top 5 or bust?

 

[WeThreeKings]

Celebrini or Eiserman or Bust for me.

That would require winning a lottery.

I BELIEVE

Who is this Bust kid? Is he any good?

Any relation to Daniil Bu(s)t?

Related to Michael Busto

A team will take a defenceman top 5 regardless of rankings. Which will cause a few teams to panick and reach for Ds leaving the forwards to teams who don't need Ds. Happens every draft.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Dickinson might go 2 that's how good he is.

Levshunov also has a big case for 2/3. I wouldn't be surprised to see Eiserman go at 4 just because of how valuable defenseman are and how good those two are.

Isn't Eiserman not considered the next big thing out of the USNDTP?

He's gonna challenge Caufields goal scoring record, but he isn't viewed the same way Hughes, Matthew's etc are. He's not a big kid and he's a scorer rather than a full on play controller.

Teams will likely value all situations defenseman with size and skating over the smaller scoring forward.

If we don’t win the lottery or top 3, i want Lindstrom.

Get some size with skills and physicallity. And he’s a center and already good at faceoffs So he could fill in when Dach gets down. I’m more than confident that he’ll be a beast.

Let's fill the team with Chads and bully our way through the playoffs.

We have a prospect pools filled with midgets. And no top 6 potential center. Unfortunately, with Dach’s history, we need something else in the pipeline.

I don't disagree.

I didn't get to see any WHL games last year and that is looking like the case this year but Catton sounds interesting, I am trying to focus more on the draft this year but I'm not a big fan of watching draft eligible prospects outside the Hab prospect games. I have access to a bunch of USNDTP games but so far I just don't feel like watching them yet.

 

[Jaynki]

Draft junkies, How are Celebrini, Eiserman, Demidov, Catton faring against Fantilli, Carlsson, Smith and Michkov?

MBN or Leonard?
