HF Habs: Flames or Panthers 1st Round Pick 2025

[rahad]

Edmonton has passed them. I don't have a lot of confidence in Colorado due to their absolutely horrific goaltending.

Right now, Calgary is really strong at home (.750 winning percentage), and really shitty on the road (.385).

I expect them to eventually fall into .500 territory, as long as they stay there that'll keep them out of top & around 12/13.

If they decide to sell because they don't want to give us that high of a pick, I would go all in on Andersson. And, if they fall to bottom of standings due to that, oh well.

Colorado won't be out of playoff. Not with a semi generational forward and defenseman. They will make it into the playoff.

I hope you are right. The last 3 years, we did not have much luck with our second first round pick. This year will probably be our last year of tanking. Having a top 5 and a 11-15 pick in the first round will be great for us. The dream scenario will be to draft in 2025 like San Jose (#1 and #11 2024 draft)!

What are you talking about. Hage is probably the 3rd best forward in the 2024 draft.

Nope.
Celebrini, Demidov, Sennecke, Ignila, Catton to name a few.

I just checked our extra first round picks and one is one of the best players in the NCAA with a terrible supporting cast and the other was playing PPG hockey in the AHL before his injury.

I has talking more about our second first round pick being late. We did not got ''lucky'' and had 2 first round pick in the top 15 Like San Jose, Chicago or Ottawa (#2 and #5 in 2020 draft).

2022: #26 2023: Florida going to the Stanley cup and 2024: 26 (before we trade).

We are all hoping Calgary pick end up in the range of #11-15. So we have 2 first round picks in the top 15 in the 2025 draft.

I'm losing confidence in Calgary. The losses are starting to come way more often, as expected. I don't think they'll stay out of the bottom-10 much longer.

Ah I got you!

My bad.

The west is pretty weak, they should consistently beat up on Anaheim, Chicago etc.

Not all is lost.

I give you Celebrini and Demidov. For Sennecke. Iginla, and Catton, I will put it under remained to be seen.
