NHL Entry Draft: 2025 Draft Pick Watch

... Let them bang their chests, they have such an embarrassing franchise the hockey gods just felt bad.

Agreed. After the 80s they've basically done nothing with horrible GMs.

Ive been posting here for about 10 years on and off, and without fail next year's draft is always generational.

The draft is always N-1 picks deep, with N = where the Rangers' first pick is.

The word generational makes me nauseous. Two players can have a nine year age difference and both be called it. That's not what it means.

Same with superstar. There can't be more than one at a time but it's used to describe any AS. That's not what it means.

I just took a look at the photos of all 40 potential 1st rounders and I can tell you this year is a massive bust when it comes to alpha personalities that will become a true superstar. You really have a pool of Yakupovs and shane Wrights. This is undoubtedly the ugliest 1st rounders I’ve ever seen and I’ve been in the business longer than Bob McKenzie. Give up this year’s 1st rounder is my choice.

Came here to ask this basically...

Realistically who could we nab at 12? Are they even worth it?

Yes.

Someone always drops.

I don't know who it will be but McRanger just posted this, you can get a good player at 12.

You have a point about generational.

What about the word "superstar" implies only one at a time?

I think they keep it. Top 12 is high and they will be competing next season. No matter who we trade or not.

 

[MrAlmost]

Also some good prospects will be there. I'd be looking at Jake Obrien and Jackson Smith. Rangers do love their college players though and Hensler is good too. I'd venture a guess that at least 1 of those 3 will be there and I wouldn't even be looking at anyone else. Defense and center. Thats it.

even if they get the 1st overall pick lmao

Some teams can, the Rongos are not one of those teams

the mental math going on last night...

Isles fans go into bidding war among each other for the piece of paper that has the chicken scratch calculation that resulted in the 1OA pick.
