NHL 2025 DRAFT - Bruins pick 7th III

[The don godfather]

Whoa cowboy

If Brady Martin is drafted by the Bruins I expect him to be much better then Sam Bennett if we don’t count the last 3 weeks a complete anomaly

Bennett averaged 26 points his first 6 seasons

He cracked 50 points this season (51) first time

He plays with likely first ballot HOF Matt Tkachuk

He had a 15 goalless steak of no goals and 1 assist this season

He didn’t even bring back a first when Calgary dealt him available to 30 teams

I drafted him in the SIM 10 years ago and wanted to strangle him - I considered him a bust and traded him after 3 years

Brady Martin better be better than the first 7 years of Sam Bennett

Sorry sam Bennett is a legend and possibly might win the con smythe trophy this year. If martin is 20 percent of him that's still pretty good.

 

[FONZIE]

Martin is hard to comp because his game is so rare, but the guy I keep coming back to is JT Miller.

Maybe he's just a Raffi Torres

 

[KnightofBoston]

Bruins need centres. Remember Savard, Bergeron, krecji up the middle? That team was a wagon.

And savard wasn’t even really here when they won, or for any of their runs after

Damn shame what happened to him. He’s healthy and you’ve got a potential dynasty in the 2010’s

Savard also had one of the best contract ever.

He wanted to retire a Bruin. Cooke deserves so much more than he ever received.

I truly believe they would have won more cups if savard didn’t get hurt. Savard was a playmaking wizard with a gigantic heart.

So…like 8-10 points a year?

 

[The don godfather]

Maybe 40 high ceiling but not close to Bennett legendary performances in playoffs .

 

[shelbysdad]

Maybe he's just a Raffi Torres

Maybe he's just a Trent Frederick

 

[KnightofBoston]

Christ almighty I hope we don’t waste the pick on a third liner that doesn’t even step it up in the playoffs

 

[Kalus]

Maybe he's just a Trent Frederick

I didn’t watch the Oilers until this series, but from what I have seen Trent’s been invisible.

 

[Jim]

Maybe he's just a Raffi Torres

Only guy in NHL history that has more games suspended than played

Bennett is the name everyone is talking about but honestly I think the better comp for Martin is Konecny.

Konecny had almost the same ppg in their draft years. I think Martin projects better as a winger anyways, where he can just focus on getting in on the forecheck as much as possible. Both right handed, both gritty.

It feels like Konecny keeps on taking a step every year but I see a more physical pre-extension Konecny. I think it's a heck of a player.

Second goal by Nurse he didn’t get an assist but he factored significantly in the events immediately leading to the goal

He also crushed Reinhardt in the second with a huge hit and Reinhardt was definitely shaken up not sure of any residual

He’s been overall not sticking out ~ apparently still playing with the injury suffered in Boston

Curious what he gets in the end

He will probably get a big goal coming up like Podkolzin did tonight

Definitely can see that - I said the wing part to a scout who watched him at U18 live the entire tournament and in OHL and he was emphatic he’s a C and a really talented one - who’s got a lot of room to grow

From 4 on I’ll be listening for his name

 

[gerrycheeversmask]

Maybe he's just a Trent Frederick

Or another Max Domi, or Lord help us, another Matt Beleskey...

FLA took note of that hit on Reinhardt and were targeting Frederic afterward. Thought he had a good game last night - physical, good on the forecheck, got a few shots off and didn't give up anything defensively. Not sure what more folks could reasonably expect from a 3rd line player in the Finals.

That one he almost inadvertently kicked in that hit the post probably would have counted. That would have been a huge one.

How hilarious would it be if Frederic pulls a Mike Rupp and scores the game winner in game 7 ?

I’m here for it ~ Florida delivered their first to Boston now to see them knocked out in game 7 works for me

Florida losses do we get Brad tears after on the ice before he handshake line ?

I will feel bad for Brad if Florida loses. That said I will feel worse if Florida wins, because so many of those guys are POS

I love Brad as a Bruins and enjoying him in these playoffs and if he was on Edmonton I’d be rooting for him

I rooted for Florida for 3 rounds - and 3 wins in the Finals. I hope Brad gets an OT game-winner Tuesday night.

They're so easy to hate and it's almost entirely that second line. Amazing how those guys manage being really good players and total frauds at the same time.

What makes them total frauds?

He probably means fraud tough guys.

Or a Max Talbot.
