HF Habs: 2025 NHL Draft: Part II

[HuGort]

Schaefer is not dropping. He's the 1st overall. If you want Schaefer, you must dream up another scenario to get him.

Schafer certainly was impressive during Bob McKenzie mid season rankings. He's been through a lot. Only was we get him is win lottery

 

[montreal]

Czata certainly improved this season.


Impressive numbers but 157lbs at 20 years old. Maybe a 7th at most

He's listed at 192, if you watch the clip, does he look 157 to you?

Wow Kent Hughes was targeting Gavin Brindley with the 31th OV pick and then Fowler with the 37th OV pick if they hadnt traded for Newhook. The scouts told him that they thought Fowler would still be there early 3rd round so he made the trade.

Brindley was a favorite of mine in that draft year, had him around 12 th OV, he finally got picked 34th OV by Columbus.

I was in a similar boat with Brindley at the time, would have been an interesting alternative scenario.

A midget centre?

 

[Thomas Sowell]

I said it at the start of the year and I'll say it again. I want Michael Misa.

 

[SlafySZN]

I just hope we can get one of O’Brien, Bear.

The 2 guys I’d be most excited. Lakovic, too.

We were going to take Brindley? We already too small. Gauthier I remember most on here wanted late first. I imagine Augustine been one of those 2 picks though. Habs were angling goalies in that draft.

Yeah, if that's the pick then I'm even better on using it to try Newhook.

Many do

 

[Vachon23]

It’s Kent Hughes himself that said they where taking Brindley, so it’s more then a rumour

 

[Benstheman]

I'm ecstatic at the fact we will have a chance at Desnoyers after all (and better odds at Schaefer). And if Calgary drops out of the playoffs, we might also have a chance at Mrtka using a 2nd round pick to move up near 10-11 OA.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Yeah wasn't contesting that.

Didn't have much interest in Brindley, so the play for Newhook makes even more sense in my eyes if that was their draft target.

Is every scouting department this good at predicting when players will land?

Obviously there's always luck that's involved, but the team correctly predicted that Hutson, Fowler and Hage would all fall to us.

Also another interesting tidbit is that probably means the Habs were higher on Fowler than Gajan or Hrabal who both went in the early 2nd round.
