2025 NHL DRAFT Thread

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Do you like him better than Hensler?
I’m honestly starting to, yeah. I think you have to do a lot of projection with Hensler. He’s older for his draft year, but he doesn’t really excel at anything, and it would be hard for him to in the league he’s in. I think his skating and defensive skills are overrated, and if you take those away then what is he?

With scrabble it’s all right there. He’s a good piece on a good team. I like his skating and the physicality is better than what you would expect from this type of player. He’s well-rounded.

Hensler is to Kessel as Brzustewicz is to Jiricek. I think that’s kind of where I’m at on them in terms of style comps.
