2025 NHL Entry Draft

[Leto]

It's still the herniated disk .

He’s been dealing with it since mid-season 2023-2024. That's why he wasn't able to finish the U18 tournament. He's been rehabbing since then. I am getting flashbacks of Lindstrom's timeline being continuously pushed back.​

 

[Goldenhands]

He's basically 2025 Dvorsky. I'm not surprised at all he's right up your alley.

Dvorsky has 19 pts in 23 GP in the AHL in his D+2.

That wasn't meant to be a shot

Blues did the right thing getting him into the OHL.. he was looking ROUGH before that.

 

[Hannibal]

I think some are sleeping on Desnoyers’s offensive game.

Yep exactly, the skating wasnt great, the reason he was struggling against men on big ices. Joining the CHL has been great for his development.

 

[Playmaker09]

Peters and Robinson just talked about him falling into the teens, EP just ranked him there as well.

I still really like Frondell, I think those takes will age poorly as he gets healthy.

But if he's there for the Calgary pick I will be more than glee.

I think our list at this point is pretty much Schaefer + Martone + 5 Centers (Hagens, Misa, Frondell, Desnoyers, McQueen).

Unless the injury is career-threatening, I don't see how we can justify not addressing Center again. Edit: Quoted the wrong post but talking about McQueen here.

It's just that he's so tall and already a back injury, you might be forced to look elsewhere. But that's essentially what I mean.. I'm only taking McQueen if we are forced to.. i.e. we pick so low that Those guys are gone and you are looking at McQueen vs. Smith vs. Eklund

 

[waitin425]

The premise of the poll needs to be changed. Hagens in no longer consensus #1. Hell he may not be top 3 after Schaefer, Martone and Misa. Also, please allow us to change our vote. It's a long season, it will be interesting to see how that changes above throughout the year!

 

[KevSkillz4]

I'm Caleb Desnoyers hype train. If Habs don't have top 4 pick, it's all fine to me because we are still be able to grab Desnoyers in the range of 5-8.

Desnoyers is the guy Habs miss for complete that rebuild.

A fantastic two-way guy, great leadership, great hard work, great skillset. Can become a really good producer at NHL level. Very underrated offensive game by some people. This guy is more than legit.

That's 100% my guy after the top 4 (him and Frondell are my guy, if Frondell isn't picking in top 4) my top 4 is Schaefer, Misa, Martone and Hagens.

 

[SOLR]

Never even talking about McQueen. No interest.

 

[Jabba11]

Caleb Desnoyers is Vontae Mack.

NO MATTER WHAT

I agree with Kevinskills above. This kid is legit. Plus, he is Quebecois. He would thrive in Montreal. Kid seem to have great work ethic, great sense of the game and likes to raise when it matters and clutch in big stages. Kid is skilled, insanely good at faceoff, has dangles, can pass, can shoot, can hit, can play dirty, can curse in French, this kid is a machine.

I would take him as high as 4th overall. After Schaefer, Martone and Hagens. Over Misa.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Hagens was far ahead of everyone in his age group at the WJC-18 this summer, let's see if that continues at the WJC in a couple weeks

Misa has 19 more points in 3 more games played in a better league. Picking Desnoyers over Misa is pure tribal bias.

They aren't close.

He's more RAY JENNINGS than VONTAE

plus I dont think he brought his nephew's tumbling so he can't be VONTAE

"Over Misa" t'es tu game d'appeler BMPsport pis de leur lancer ça pour voir, tu vas donner une crise au serpent

I don't know, on international plays and CHL vs USA games, Desnoyers stood out more to me. Desnoyers is a competitor with a killer instinct. We'll see

Short tournaments don't mean much.

 

[The Great Weal]

Desnoyers at 5 seems underwhelming. I get that you can do nothing about it, but I'd still be upset. Frankly, anything after 4 seems kind of meh to me.

 

[montreal]

impressive game from him today in the MHL, brought his physical game, could easily of had 4 or 5 pts,



Assist 5:01
Nice Pass 8:41
Assist 9:19
Just Misses Scoring 2 on 1 9:59
Big Open Ice Hit 10:36
Nice Steal/Pass 11:22
Nice Effort on Assist 13:14

 

[montreal]

also not sure if posted in here but heard a rumor that Ryabkin might get traded to Omsk.

Yeah. i really want a player from the top 4 of this draft. But f***ing Nashville and Buffalo are pushing us out of a top 4 picks!

I’m a massive Desnoyers fan and would go to war to draft him if I was a scout but never over Misa

It's just temporary
