I think Desnoyers & Frondell are my top two choices based on where we are most likely picking. Going to be strange to circle the draft lottery date on my calendar.
If they can get Zonnon in the 2nd rd or if they get another late 1st, he would be a good choice, I saw him play against Moncton and he was one of the best players on the ice.He play here in my city
Great hockey sense and so nice person , very calm humble and mature
I think the Bruins have always been good at identifying D in later rounds or through free agency/trades. I think the 1st needs to be used on pure offensive ability. This system needs scoring way more than anything else, and I don't think the couple prospects they brought in yesterday move the needle that much.After all these young forwards just got acquired i wonder if they go defense with the pick. They need centers for sure but their defensive prospects are kind of non existent. At least at forward theres a ton of lottery tickets. Maybe jackson smith kid or radim mrtka?
Also theres this huge kid who missed a bunch of time this year still projected top 7 but maybe hes slips with the lack of games played this year, roger mcqueen
Thats what they did when they drafted lysell. I liked it at the time but now i just want them to not miss. I want an impact player at a position. No more projected bottom 6 forwards, no more bust top 6 projected forwards. Someone who is good that becomes good.I think the Bruins have always been good at identifying D in later rounds or through free agency/trades.

You could be looking at solid picks like Frondell, Desnoyers and O'Brien, all would be great adds. Desnoyers reminds me of a young Bergeron.So since I dont know diddley about these kids but am in full tank mode now. What does say picking 5 thru 9 possibly get you?
Definitely not the time to get cute and pick positionally. They better spend a couple years taking the best guy on the board. All set on Sweeney overthinking things, thanks.After all these young forwards just got acquired i wonder if they go defense with the pick.

My thoughts, admittedly a composite of reading lots of other people's thoughts since September and watching relatively useless highlight videos.
I feel like we are likely picking 8th or 9th based on current standings, games remaining, etc. Feel like there are a couple of tiers that kind of break with pick 8, probably could put Frondell in the top tier if you like
Tier One
Schaefer
Misa
Hagens
Martone
Tier Two
Frondell
Desnoyers
Eklund
McQueen
McQueen could be a do not draft for some teams picking this high. He has Spondylosis which I understand to be chronic but not sure if there are different levels...tends to be a repetitive use injury as we thought my son had it at one point.
Looking around where we'd be picking today I really like Carter Bear. Helps that his name fits the team well, but he seems like a player that competes hard and produces offensively.
precisely, we don`t need deep thinkers, take BPA and be on with itDefinitely not the time to get cute and pick positionally. They better spend a couple years taking the best guy on the board. All set on Sweeney overthinking things, thanks.
He is a really good player Wally.That said though, I think Bruins will slip further down yet with those road games left.Mock draft has Bruins selection as 10th
10. Boston Bruins: Justin Carbonneau
Years of sacrificing draft picks in trades to shore up their roster left the Bruins' prospect pipeline depleted. Fabian Lysell is their only natural right winger among their top prospects, and it remains to be seen if he becomes a full-time NHL player.
Justin Carbonneau of the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada in the Quebec Maritime Junior Hockey League could address that need for the Bruins. The 6'1”, 192-pound right wing leads the Armada with 46 goals and 87 points in 58 games, sitting second among QMJHL scorers.
NHL Central Scouting has the 18-year-old Carbonneau at No. 13 on their mid-term rankings of North American skaters. The Athletic's Scott Wheeler ranked him 10th on his list, citing his strong skating and offensive skills, including his quick release.
The limited depth among quality right wingers among this season's top prospects leave the Bruins with few options to address that issue. Unless Porter Martone is still available at this stage, they should snap up Carbonneau with this pick.
With the Wings winning today the Bruins are 9th from the bottom - in the points % column. The Pens and Ducks could pass them, the Flyers seem to be tanking. The Bruins will probably end up as I said right from the start of the year a .500 club. As of today that is exactly what they are. Getting a good player would kick start the return.He is a really good player Wally.That said though, I think Bruins will slip further down yet with those road games left.
Islanders only 2 pts back of Bruins with 3 games at hand too.Falling definitely helps longterm..With the Wings winning today the Bruins are 9th from the bottom - in the points % column.

If the goalie Ravensbergen is still there , I definitely take him in round 2.now picking in 2nd round, who ya`ll got?
hmm, I`m not a fan of taking a goalie that early but I also have zero knowledge of this goalie, hell, unless it`s a player who plays in the WHL and who visits Victoria (entire league does not visit here) , chances are I haven`t seen them play live so I tend not to comment but...If the goalie Ravensbergen is still there , I definitely take him in round 2.
I think this goalie prospect has a lot of Carey Price in him, could be the next star goalie. I would absolutely take him in round 2 and also sign the U Maine goalie as an NCAA free agent. Chances are that Bussi goes elsewhere next year and maybe even Dipeitro, they have Sevdberg who looks pretty good, but goalie depth is something they need.hmm, I`m not a fan of taking a goalie that early but I also have zero knowledge of this goalie, hell, unless it`s a player who plays in the WHL and who visits Victoria (entire league does not visit here) , chances are I haven`t seen them play live so I tend not to comment but...
...I`m not as convinced as many that Swayman`s year is an outlier brought on by missed camp. Not me, by this time of year, you`d figure he`d have gotten into the swing of things so maybe a goalie might be the way to go but in all honesty, I want the simplest of picks, best player available and if that`s Ravensbergen, so be it
Team in front of him hasn`t been good but his rebound control, movement is nothing that he showed in previous years , surely he still can`t be behind the 8 ball of missed camp in game 60 something?
