gonna be banging the table for desnoyers all year

I also live in NB and find he looks very raw. Good tools though

 

[Vachon23]

Should be a better year in the Q

 

[The Great Weal]

As of now, it doesn't seem like there's a stud dman with the potential of being a top 10-15 in the league right? I feel like the last time that has happened was with Dahlin in 2018.

Hensler looks nice. But he's pretty much never getting past San Jose.

 

[Fuonki]

The Euro countries should have a bounce back year in 24-25 and bolster the 2025 draft class. Crazy how few prospects there were from Sweden, Finland, Czechia, Slovakia in the early rounds this year.

Sweden has a very strong class for 2025 but for Finland it's looking up to be one of the weakest years in recent history. So far I don't see any clear 1st round prospects, with maybe only Jesper Kotajärvi having the potential to climb up there if everything goes well for him.

Hensler and Schaefer are the only notable ones right now

Hensler and Schaefer are the only notable ones right now

I just wonder if they have star potential.

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

It will be fun when it happens 365 days from now!!

 

[Mrb1p]

gonna be banging the table for desnoyers all year

Desnoyers or Martone and I'll be screaming like a little girl.

 

[Jaynki]

My boy is Porter Martone.

I do really like Frondell and obviously Hagens.

Won't be near picking those guys though.

Doesnt feel the need either since we will thrive on Demidov for a while.

What ~rank do you think Alex Huang is going ?

 

[Trabdy2]

Lots of guys will be shuffling around in the conversation so I'll probably wait a while into the season before looking hard at this class. Martone and Hagens both look amazing so far.

 

[Estimated_Prophet]

keep it about the draft, no tank talk.

Demidov in a Russian T-34 vs. Hagens in a WW2 Sherman in a race?

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Give us double Ivan!

 

[Team_Spirit]

Sub 6ft prospects after the last draft...

LLS is brutal. HT scares me enough, no way I would have the guts to do this.

 

[David Suzuki]

I also live in NB and find he looks very raw. Good tools though

He's gotta fill out, but assuming we're in the 10-16 range next year I'd be fine with him in there.

 

[Banjo Cat]

The suspense is killing me.

 

[The Last Red]

We should add another Ivan to the collection : Ivan Ryabkin

Drago.

 

[DiglettDangles]

I can't wait to see who's the 2025 pick that would send our beloved @KevSkillz4 into a full-blown villain arc - the Silayev banter was hilarious!

 

[Weber Fan]

Caleb Desnoyers will be a good option in the Q!

 

[SOLR]

Let's trade for Ivan Ivan, play him with Demidov and Ryabkin.

 

[SlafySZN]

Don’t know if we will be in a range for McQueen but he’s for sure gonna be one of my guy.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

Don’t know if we will be in a range for McQueen but he’s for sure gonna be one of my guy.

It wouldn’t surprise me if by the draft McQueen is pushing for 1OA consideration. 6’4’’ with strong skating and elite offensive skills, this kid is a franchise level player.

 

[Egresch]

Adam Benak from Czechia will probably be an early pick.
Keep an eye on Slovakian defenseman Luka Radivodjevic. He played at the World Juniors in his D-1 year. That's very telling of his skill.
Russia has a clear top prospect in center Ivan Ryabkin

No top prospect from Finland as of yet.

Overall looks like a good draft for forwards, not as strong for defense

Adam Benak is 5-7 tall, he would be lucky to make top 100. Hopefully he grows up to 5-9 at least.
Luka Radivojevic was listed 5-10, but I guess he will grow a bit. His father Branko was 6-2 and his mom is not tiny, so there is room to grow. He is great with the puck, very calm and smart. Already played at WJC U20 and he was very good. U18 WC he was voted to All Stars team. If he can grow to 6-0, he will be heading to top 10.
2024 was a good year for Czechs with Adam Jiricek, Badinka, Jecho. Slovaks only had one player drafted 7th rounder Miroslav Satan jr.
2025 expecting around 6 Slovaks (Radivojevic, Chovan, Svrcek, Zubek, Pobezal, Straka). Czech will have Radim Mrtka 6-6 RHD as their main draft prospect.
