HF Habs: 2025 NHL Draft: Part II

[Riggins]

Didn’t think we had a chance at Desnoyers, but things have changed quickly in the span of a couple of weeks

Working our way into the top 6 picks would be nice to guarantee one of Schaefer, Hagens, Misa, Martone, Frondell or Desnoyers.

is schaeffer injury prone? why did he only play 56 games 2023-2024, and 25 of 39 in 2022-23

If I had to pick a player who surprised top-3 like Sennecke I think it would be Desnoyers. Does anyone else think somebody different?

 

[Nevins]

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

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

And Carbonneau

I wonder if the Habs finally select him.

He's up to 6'1 now according to EP

Maybe in the third/ fourth round.

5OA for 3rd year in a row looking very likely

 

[Nevins]

What are people looking at for the 2nd round picks? I just don't see a lot of talent pass 20 this year. Might be a good year to package some picks to move up a couple spots. I think if Calgary ends up 16th, and a 2nd rounder takes us to 12, I would do it. I think the possibility of ending up with McQueen, Desyoners, Eklund or Frondell (IMO, one of these 4 might fall a bit) would be a fantastic pick up.

I'm just unimpressed with this draft. Maybe I just haven't been watching enough jr. hockey or the players have become so bland, but outside the top 20 guys I just don't see a lot of NHL talent.

Not in Order:Genborg,Horcoff,Vansaghi,Brzustewitz,Amico,Zonnon,Czata

I’d happily draft Carter Bear if we stay where we are right now in the rankings

If we're unable to drop low enough to grab one of the top 5 Cs, I'd have no issues with Bear + Spence and converting Demidov to C.

I don't think much difference between Desnoyers or Bear or O'Brien actually. Each future #2 center. Desnoyers probably gets the edge where he is from here. Any of the above plus take Martin with Flames pick solves our center woes for a decade

Definitely a concern to me. Schafer the best player but I may take Misa. We full on left D and first line centers are hard to find. Might not get another chance at one

 

[WeThreeKings]

I would expect that outside of being able to pick a talent like Misa/Hagens.. the defining characteristics of this draft class is gonna be snarl and compete.
