Not a big fan, but gotta trust the scouts I guess.
Really interested to see what Verbeek says about the pick.
“Beckett is an impact player that plays with high-end skill and intelligence, and has the potential to be a dynamic player.” said Ducks General Manager Pat Verbeek. “He plays with purpose, drives to the net, has incredible hands and vision. In our many viewings, his drive to be successful was evident. He will fit in well with our current group of elite young players already in the NHL and support our goal to build a perennial contender.”
Inspired pick? Is that same as disappointing?actually, he was 6.02.75 at the combine and his upside is thru the roof. And he's a right shot RW. Not my top choice but this was an inspired pick.
the oppositeInspired pick? Is that same as disappointing?
He said two teams interviewed him yesterday and neither was Anaheim, not that we never interviewed him. Sounds like Verbeek had his mind set.
Senneke is more dynamic especially with his hands and vision. He has as much potential as a gamebreaking wing as anyone in the draft... but it's a risk. Kind of shocked the Ducks made this pick at 3Do you guys consider Gauthier or Sennecke the superior prospect?
