Prospect Info: 2025 draft discussion

[wingerdinger]

If Detroit needs to swing, then this is a player to swing on.

EDIT: O'Brien.

O'Brien would be add a dimension that we dont really have in our prospect pool. A pure playmaker.

 

[HoweFan]

Is Arvid Drott a good pick in the second or third

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

Is Arvid Drott a good pick in the second or third

Today, I would say yes.

Gotta see how his year goes.

I think Frondell will be a very good one from that 2nd Tier. He is way better than he gets credit for.

Agreed, he's been injured and gotten off to a slow start but I think he'll really come on and be a consensus 5 or 6. Would love to get him.

No. 6: Caleb Desnoyers, C, 6-foot-2, 178 pounds, Moncton Wildcats (QMJHL)
Plays a responsible two-way game with a high hockey IQ and top-notch compete level. His details are on-point and his offensive game is high-end.

Caleb Destroyer eh. If that is accurate description, Red Wings written all over him.

I would gladly take Desnoyers or Carbonneau.

great another person who refuses to shoot the puck

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Sell at the TDL get a top 5 pick and a new HC promote Cossa. I am very excited to see this scenario. Give Rantanen a brinks truck.

wings could offer Rants a max deal and he wouldn’t come here

Sure, why not.

How's that going to go in your opinion?

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

And why not?

 

[OldnotDeadWings]

And why not?

Because Rantanen and almost any other star player in their late 20s that has some control over where they play don't want to waste prime years on a team that isn't ready to win anything yet, even if they join the team. Half the needed supportiing cast is in the AHL, Europe, NCAA and CHL. When a few of them show up, the Rantanens of the world will think about Detroit.

Let's not even try then. I got more time to wait on prospects.

offer him league minimum

"we both know you'd pay us to come here because it means not having to face Brady Cleveland, but it's against league rules to pay you less than this so lets just pretend"
