F Tij Iginla - Kelowna Rockets, WHL (2024, 6th, UTAH)

[CanadienShark]

There aren't many weaknesses to his game. He plays bigger than his size, has translatable offense, solid skater, and has good hockey IQ. This might be another Brady and Matthew Tkachuk scenario.

Who is this year's Juolevi or Kotkaniemi?

 

[Zirakzigil]

Probably, but at the end of the day I'll choose picking at 32nd again. But if every GM between 10-31 got really drunk and forgot to draft him, that'd be fine too.

Whaaat?

Vegas doesnt draft players or have prospects.

 

[BruinsFan37]

Still find it funny that his son's name s so short when His (Jarome's) full name is ridiculously long (5 or 6 middle names)

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

He does so many things well, & he's got pro attributes.

The question comes down to whether he's a middle 6 forward or a legit top 6 forward. If the latter he's a 10-20 guy, if the former he's late first.

Who is this year's Juolevi or Kotkaniemi?

Probably one of Brandsegg-Nygard or Emil Hemming

That's why it makes sense for us to draft 32nd.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

If he plays anything like his dad, I’d love for the Leafs to be able to snag this kid. No doubt he will be gone way before our pick though

 

[Bond]

If the Flames get another pick in the 20ish range then they have to draft him

 

[Dion TheFluff]

would not be suprised at all if he's a top 10 pick. Similar to guys like Danielson and Kasper, the production make not be eye popping but there's so many pro attributes that it may be hard to pass up on him.

Who gets to draft 32nd?

 

[Zirakzigil]

Who gets to draft 32nd?

No one going to Vegas.

That pick most likely is from the team that traded with Calgary for one of their UFAs

But it will be our pick. Your not gettingitness is really making me explain I'm happy to draft 32nd again because it means we went back to back.

Oh I know the 32nd pick goes to the winner in theory. Excepting youre not winning it again and the team that does wouldnt have kept the pick

Hmmm…maybe a new school version of Nino Niederreiter?

I feel like this is probably pretty accurate.

Nothing flashy, pretty simple straight-lines player ... but powerful and with a shot that will beat NHL goalies.

Well, he is a lot ahead of his dad (draft season year goal and points)

 

[horner]

Calgary will draft him it just makes to much sense.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

His 26th

 

[Artorius Horus T]

2 more points; 17 in his last 8 games, 3 points shy of 50.

50 goal 100 point pace

 

[Artorius Horus T]

27 goals, 50 points

 

[Bubbles]

3G, 1A tonight. Tij has 30 while his dad had 33 in his draft season. I can definitely see him sneak into the top 15. There's a lot to like in his game.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Was at the game. First goal was ridiculous
