2024 Draft

[FLAMESFAN]

Thought the goalie coach would've called up a goalie....

 

[Double Dion]

I ha

I have him early 2nd

Could be. I like him, but like I said, no one left I'm pumped about after Hage went.

Was hoping we could get Beaudoin. It's gotta be Miettinen now

 

[Bounces R Way]

Tij sounds exactly like Jarome wtf

 

[Anglesmith]

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

Too early for Miettinen. There's no skill there. Bottom 6 forward. Can't take him in round 1.

I don't think you put up ppg as a rookie, and new to NA if you don't have skill.
He's also good at FO's

Greentree was ranked 10-15 for most of the year, but really dropped after the U18's

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Nah, let's grab Ritchie. I'm enamoured lol

Nah, I've seen him lots. There's no skill there. It's size based scoring against smaller dudes. That's not a player you take round 1. He won't even go early in round 2.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Ryder Ritchie is from Calgary and is listed as a centre or RW. They should take him.

We'll see

I do think we'll see another run of D: Freij, Wallenius, Emery, Elick, Pulkinen, Shurivan, Kivi,

I like the first 2 on your list. I think we're going to Russia with this pick.

 

[FLAMESFAN]

Chernyshov to play with Bedard?

Nope, Vanacker - another late riser

Son of Flames Legend Byron Ritchie.

Son of Flames Legend Byron Ritchie.

It's super important they leave with at least one legacy kid

 

[Backlund]

Emery, Hemming or Elick maybe

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Emery, Hemming or Elick maybe

I could absolutely see Elick.

 

[Double Dion]

Emery, Hemming or Elick maybe

Hemming. Now that's a guy. Good call.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Who?

 

[FLAMESFAN]

Huh, thought he was an option in the 2nd

 

[Double Dion]

Funky pick here. Not a good pick.

EDIT: Bear in mind I haven't seen him...haha

 

[FLAMESFAN]

Funky pick here. Not a good pick.

Maybe our Russian scout stayed in NA?

 

[Some Other Flame]

Okay

 

[flames23]

Not a first rounder from everything I've seen. Lindy pick turned into a 2nd as it turns out.

 

[Mobiandi]

Conroy’s drafting reminds me of Jarmo Kekalainen. Not a huge fan
