GDT: 2024 NHL Entry Draft (HFSJ Edition) - Round 1: Fri, Jun 28 4pm PT/7pm ET | Rounds 2-7: Sat, Jun 29, 8:30am PT/11:30am ET

[The Nemesis]

Hodge in shambles.

 

[coooldude]

Pulkkinen was intriguing to me but Wallenius is a good pickup from what little I know about these prospects.

 

[hohosaregood]

So #17 still taken and freeing up #71

 

[Munnyro]

Hodge in shambles.

Me too. Sad how it played out.

 

[Le Rosbeef]

Love that latest pick - LSW, quality add. I can't recall a much better draft at this point for SJ... on paper, at least!

 

[pappaf2]

Yeah sharks have 0 right dmen. Maybe they can trade Ferraro for a right D. Ferraro for Fabbro?

 

[NiWa]

Sahlin-Wallenius, wasn't top of my list, but very close. Fine pick.

 

[ChompChomp]

Oh welp, there goes Carter George. Good pick.

 

[weastern bias]

Knyzhov bought out per Chris Johnston, there's your #71 jersey, Mack

 

[Jts4thgoal]

Knyzhov was gone the second Mack had the 71 jersey on.

 

[coooldude]

Knyzhov bought out per Chris Johnston, there's your #71 jersey, Mack

Hell, his 1OA jersey yesterday had 71 on it already!

 

[landshark]

No show girls to tote coats today...

 

[Bizz]

LA fans hate the Jeannot trade, so I love it.

 

[The Nemesis]

Knyzhov bought out per Chris Johnston, there's your #71 jersey, Mack

"Alright Macklin, what's it going to take for you to sign this season?"

"I want jersey #71"

*Grier looks at Knyzhov icily*

"Hey Nik, can you come join me out behind the parking lot of the building for a few minutes?"

*grabs a shovel as he walks out of the room*

 

[weastern bias]

Hell, his 1OA jersey yesterday had 71 on it already!

I noticed, jersey numbers are kind of my fixation, I just think it's funny they gave it to him BEFORE it was technically freed up

 

[ChompChomp]

I don't mind Knyzhov being bought out, but he could have just been buried in the Cuda next season and then walk away.

 

[Juxtaposer]

I noticed, jersey numbers are kind of my fixation, I just think it's funny they gave it to him BEFORE it was technically freed up

On the walk over to the Sphere yesterday, there were two guys who looked either like prospects or tagalongs to prospects who “guaranteed” Celebrini would be #71 instead of #17. Probably friends of Mack.

 

[landshark]

Isn't Jeannot a goon? He had a good rookie year but kinda shitsplat after that from the counting stats. I only bring it up because he's a new, young goon in the division.

 

[spintops]

MG must be using Corey Pronman's board:
#1 Macklin
#11 BDE (Although he had Zeev higher)
#18 Igor
#21 Sahlin - No one close to this tier still on board.

 

[themelkman]

Hodge in shambles.

He gets to see Kunin play big minutes for one more year so hes probably still on cloud nine

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Buying Knyzhov out helps them get to the floor more than burying him. lol

 

[DG93]

Two more great picks already today, Grier masterclass continues

 

[ChompChomp]

Buying Knyzhov out helps them get to the floor more than burying him. lol

Good point, that makes sense.

 

[sharks_dynasty]

I ran into them again later and it turns out they are from Vancouver and know Macklin’s brother. That’s why they were confident about the jersey number.

On the walk over to the Sphere yesterday, there were two guys who looked either like prospects or tagalongs to prospects who “guaranteed” Celebrini would be #71 instead of #17. Probably friends of Macklin

 

[weastern bias]

Hopefully it's because he wants to be the opposite of Ryan Kesler, you know, a winner
