2025 Draft Discussion

The 2024 thread started about a year ago so let's start this one. Looks like there's more forward talent at the top next year with Hagens, Frondell, Martone, Spence, Misa, and McQueen. On defense there's Hensler, Schaefer (who I really liked at the U18s), and Radivojevic getting mentioned a...

Who will the Wings pick at #16?

 

[HisNoodliness]

Who will the Wings pick at #16?

Jackson Smith

 

[Konnan511]

I'm hoping the Russian factor drops Ilya Ryabkin down to us at #9. Jakob Wozniak would be a dream as well. William Moore is interesting, seems to be a high scoring center.

 

[GoBoltz56]

Are there any big 2-way forwards with questionable offensive upside?

 

[lilidk]

Who will the Wings pick at #16?

Big two way LW

 

[lilidk]

There are always prospects in mid 20ies I like. Year ago was Musty and last draft Hage. So I hope we draft late

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

Ryakbin yes please

Seems we are on the same page for prospects. They'll most likely be gone where we pick, but one could dream.

 

[lilidk]

Plan is go after NTDP kids , then in the middle of draft get previously undrafted players who were good in u20 world cup. In the end we could get some more NTDP and one guy from Sweden

Wozniak gives be Filip Forsberg vibes. I dont know how he wont be a top 10 pick. I do think we'll have a down year so we still might have a shot at him.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

Max Westergard looks interesting.

EDIT:

Bill Zannon
Caden Taylor
Jorgen Nyhus Myhre( I'm hoping I spelled that right)
Dominick Pavlik
Viggo Nordlund
Ben Kindle

As far as the 1st round, lots of players I like.

Detroit won't be in a position to draft them.

Hyphenated last name too.

 

[Run the Jewels]

I'm going to be cautiously optimistic and say Detroit makes the playoffs and we draft around the 20th draft pick. Two paths here, the NA scouting pick or the Euro scouting pick. I am relying on Corey Pronman's rankings for guys who will be available when we pick.

Euro pick: Milton Gastrin, Centre (MODO-Sweden)
Ticks off the appropriate check boxes: decent size, good skater, competes hard, two-way player with questionable offensive upside. That just screams Red Wings draft pick. If this is Hakan's pick then you know I'm down. It's boring but I'm never going to outsmart that dude and I'm quite OK with that.

NA pick: William Moore, Centre (USNTDP)
Big, good skater, can score some. Not a true two-way 200 ft guy but if we feel good about what we've got down the middle with Larkin, Danielson and Kasper then you can take a swing with Moore and worst case scenario you move him to wing.

 

[OldnotDeadWings]

I expect Wings to miss playoffs and have another 11-15 OA pick. C Caleb Desnoyers is a really good prospect, mobile two-way guy with size and skill who could go in that range.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

Malcolm Spence for Detroit's 1st if I'm betting.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

F Arvid Drott - Djurgårdens IF J18, J18 Region (2025 Draft)

Seems like a Detroit guy.

I know who Hakan is. I don't know what a "Hakan Pick" is or what "Hakan's Pick" is.

 

[Christien]
