GDT: 2024 NHL Entry Draft, at The Sphere in Vegas, Friday, June 28, 7 p.m. edt | SN, TVA Sports, ESPN, NHLN

[CanadienShark]

The Sharks had a f***in monster first round

Habs too. Exactly who I wanted at our picks.

Woooooo! I've never had such excitement from a draft. Literally everything went perfectly.

 

[1909]

Right in front of Boston. Screw the Bruins!

UTAH with Iginla and Beaudoin: very good draft too.

 

[The Great Weal]

Is he m

Is he more a Kucherov or a Kaprizov ?

Just because of the skating difference between him and Kaprizov, I'd have to go Kucherov although I'm not counting on him to be that kind of player. 70-80 points that competes and isn't a liability defensively and it's an awesome pick, anything extra is just gravy.

 

[Koivu11]

Habs next pick is #70

Aatos Koivu

 

[Team_Spirit]

I love the family reactions replays on sportsnet

Beckett won't be topped though

[ReHabs]

Sure, he's not a guarantee, but I'm more confident that he'll be a top line forward more than anyone we have picked in like 30 years

Oh yeah he's so much better than Kotkaniemi and Galchenyuk at least.

And I know I have a rep here so I won't mention Slafkovsky but I reckon he'd be in the top3 of the 2022 draft too at the very least.

 

[Habs13]

Three years in a row Columbus take the guy I wanted us to draft. Lol.

 

[Trabdy2]

I'm surprised Greentree is still available.

 

[Tyson]

Three straight top 5 picks is promising for the rebuild.

 

[Captain Mountain]

Habs too. Exactly who I wanted at our picks.

Woooooo! I've never had such excitement from a draft. Literally everything went perfectly.

Enjoy it! Rooting for two teams who are terrible sucks. This is the one night in the year we can enjoy.

Woooooo! I've never had such excitement from a draft. Literally everything went perfectly.

iirc, last time everything went perfectly was in 2012.

 

[1909]

I'm surprised Greentree is still available.

Boston should pick him. That's their type of players.

 

[Trabdy2]

I didn't mind the idea of Beaudoin if we stayed at 26 but I guess he'd have just been gone. I like Hage better, though. It was worth moving up.

 

[Hope Of Glory]

Imagine going from Buium to Luchanko for a 3rd rounder lmfao poor Flyers fans

 

[The Great Weal]

Oh yeah he's so much better than Kotkaniemi and Galchenyuk at least.

And I know I have a rep here so I won't mention Slafkovsky but I reckon he'd be in the top3 of the 2022 draft too at the very least.

I don't think it's a stretch to say he's got better offensive talent than Slaf, but the size and athleticism favors Slaf for sure. I can't f***ing wait to see those two and Suzuki. A legit first line.

 

[sampollock]

Boston should pick him. That's their type of players.

To hit the figs in playoffs

 

[Playmaker09]

Greentree and Chernyshov still out there. Make something happen.

Bunch of nice RHD in the early 2nd as well. Sucks not having a 2nd two years in a row.

 

[OnTheRun]

Fig board must be wild they didn't take a guy

Don't worry, SN will jump to the rescue and give the Leafs an A+ grade for the 1st round. Silent winner bla bla bla.

 

[CanadienShark]

Why do you have to be the way you are?

Insert Michael Scott meme.

Seriously though, I'm ecstatic.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Boston finally taking the podium

 

[HuGo Sham]

Here comes seabass

 

[LaP]

Dean Laitourno

 

[morhilane]

Boston took Letourneau.

 

[sansabri]

of course the bruins draft a big dude

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Bruins take Dean Letourneau! Big, big center. 6'7.
