HF Habs: 2025 NHL Draft: Part II

[The Great Weal]

Let’s say we win 2nd OA and Schaefer is gone, do you go Hagens or Misa?

Hagens

Trick question, trade down to 3 and take whoever is left lol

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

Here’s a player that might be a good snag in Round 3.

No doubt that along with more elite talent, the Habs need to re-tool the 3rd and 4th lines and a kid like Moses intrigues me.

 

[SakuKoivu11]

Trade our pick along with a second to move up 3-4 spots.
C caleb desnoyer is a gamer. Anthony Cerelli like.
Package Calgary’s pick and prospects for someone in the NHL.
Alex Newhook and first for Dylan Cousins?

 

[themilosh]

That's awesome. And the kid is super smart for sure, would like to see us package our picks and something else if needed to move up and grab him.

He's very good friends with my son - we go and watch him play (when Saginaw comes to town), I've been telling him one day he will be selected 1st OA by the Habs, but I'll take 3rd OA regardless! lol

 

[SlafySZN]

Ridiculous pass from O’Brien

Misa has the higher ceiling, and the bigger body..

I'm surprise people are calling it a ''weak draft''. Schaefer, Hagens and Misa are a solid top 3. I will 100% go for Misa. Skill and NHL size.

 

[Goldenhands]

I have to agree with Grant, both Frondell and Misa have passed Hagens for me as well. Hagens has been the same since the start of the season, not much improvement and he is a late, projects as an undersized 2C at that point. There is a case for Desnoyers as well, he might not be quite as talented as Hagens, but clearly has the size advantage and a most well rounded game.

Big improvement this year. Certainly worth a 3rd.

 

[Thomas Sowell]

So if we did by chance win the draft and Hughes selected Schafer, do you think ghule hits the trade block?

 

[Toene]

Let’s say we win 2nd OA and Schaefer is gone, do you go Hagens or Misa?

Misa. He's a rare talent.

 

[Benstheman]

So if we did by chance win the draft and Hughes selected Schafer, do you think ghule hits the trade block?

No. But Hutson might.

 

[1000eeer]

Looking at the current standings, my guess is:

Mtl picks 9th OA
CGY picks 13th OA

The most probable outcome would be that we don't use both of those picks to draft someone.

But putting that aside, who would be your picks at 9th and 13th?

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Mtl picks 9th OA
CGY picks 13th OA

Walking out with Bear and Mrtka is doable at these spots , which is a very strong first round haul IMO. Some could argue it's a bit of a reach, but this is where I have them both. I'd switch Mrtka with Jackson Smith, but I'm starting to think he might be gone by the 9th pick.

 

[WeThreeKings]

So if we did by chance win the draft and Hughes selected Schafer, do you think ghule hits the trade block?

No, Guhle would just play right side.

It is a weak draft because there is very little depth, the top picks are not what makes a draft a great draft it is the amount of good players available into the 3rd round.

 

[Estimated_Prophet]

So if we did by chance win the draft and Hughes selected Schafer, do you think ghule hits the trade block?

Matheson would be the odd man out, maybe not immediately but in the relative short term.

Trading Guhle is nonsensical at best.

What do we think of Brady Martin

 

[crosbyshow]

How in the world Ben Kindel is so low on lists ??

The dude has almost...2 points per game in the Whl.....jeez.. (1.70)


Ah ok...got it...he is 5.10 175...

Dumbass G.M will miss another great player


.the dude should be in the Top 10...

So tired of the 6.0 200 shi...

 

[Erika]

I've read more about this draft year and checked a few videos of certain players now that the Habs are probably going to end with a pick in the top 6 at worst.

Here's my early February preferences:

1. Matthew Schaefer
2. Michael Misa
3. James Hagens
4. Caleb Desnoyers
5. Victor Eklund
6. Porter Martone
7. Anton Frondell
8. Carter Bear
9. Radim Mrtka
10. Jake O'Brien
11. Roger McQueen
12. Lynden Lakovic

At equal talent evaluation, I'm prioritizing the center and then the defenceman. Roger McQueen is a special case, because his injury seems like an enigma and I don't want the Habs to have a Cayden Lindstrom situation so for me, he's outside of the top 10 for now.

What do we think of Brady Martin

I like him a lot. He’s skilled, sturdily built and plays with consistency and an edge.

Plays a responsible, 200-ft game. Excellent shot.

Seen a lot of him and try not to let hometown bias distort my outlook.

I see him as a 25-35-60 contributor in the pros, and 6’0, 195-ish.
