2024 NHL Draft

[crashthenet]

Bednarik let’s go!!!

Zeke replacement 2027.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

59th ranked on Bobby Mac list, picked where he should be. No reach, but no bargain. No reaches, good to see.

 

[mm11]

we could pick charlie Brown and you fellas would love it! Anyway, sounds like good picks. Keep it up Mr Lou. LGI.....

 

[The Wahligator]

Zeke replacement 2027.

I think he has a slightly higher offensive ceiling than Zeeker. I love this pick

 

[leeroggy]

Zeke replacement 2027.

More like a Pageau replacement

 

[Osakahaus]

Good job Lou with the past few picks

Now I shall leave

 

[Strummergas]

Zeke replacement 2027.

Let's hope he projects as a 3rd line center.

 

[crashthenet]

we go at 115?

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Honestly, I don't know much about these 2 picks, but historically Mac's list is a good one. I like that the Isles got value in the first rd, and in the 2nd rd also. No big reaches this time. This is what Isles fans need, an influx of youth!

 

[The Wahligator]

They might lack top end skill, but I think Isles have two slam dunk NHL centers in the system now with Nelson and Bednarik.

 

[Taswell]

Happy with our picks, surprised we used all of them though. We really running it back again next year, eh?

How about waiting a few more days before assuming that . . .

 

[Strummergas]

Why? Reporting on what you KNOW Lou is going to do has worked out so well since the trading deadline...

 

[MichaelK]

More like the asking price for trades did not justify making a move

 

[crashthenet]

Big trade day.

 

[SI90]

FYI we don’t have a 3rd round pick

 

[PK Cronin]

FYI we don’t have a 3rd round pick

Yet.*

 

[SayItAintSoJohnny]

Three really good quality picks, and none of them were reaches. Call me shocked that he used all of them to upgrade what was a really thin prospect pool.

Hats off to Lou on that, but now lets see what he can do with literally no cap space in free agency...

 

[Lights911]

Sigh.

 

[SI90]

Go get me AJ Spellacy somehow Lou

 

[seabass45]

Not going to pretend I know anything about these guys but the commentary so far is solidly positive so i’ll take it.

Hopefully the cycle of signing players to bad contracts and trading away valuable picks to get rid of them is over. If we have to run it back with something close to last year, so be it. This infusion of prospects of badly needed.

To be fair, Lou did not use picks to get rid of players he signed. They were Snow signings.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Viewed some tape on Bednarik, seems like a solid 3C projection. Nothing wrong with this. Need good depth down the middle, defensive players that can chip in with some offence. These are the type of players you need to win with. Good cap hits that are not flashy but oh so valuable.

 

[SI]

Jay Pandolfo is the head coach at BU - he will take care of Eiserman and Berdnarik.

Also Isles needed young C’s.

We could see Wahlstrom go and Isles bring in 3rd.

UFA stage is set bargain deals
