Just give us both.

 

[DG93]

I have been reformed and voted for Sennecke lol

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I could be convinced to take either of these guys at 14 if that's the final option.

 

[Bizz]

Let's see, a player who has done something only Sidney Crosby and Johnathan Toews has done at the Junior level, or some "late riser" that barely anybody has heard of when late risers rarely become something at the NHL level.

I'll stick with Eiserman.

If we got sennecke at 14 its robbery at this point. Ik eiserman is the more well known name and has the boom perception and id be fine with him at 14. but having watched sennecke live multiple times this kid is one of the most skilled players in the draft and has tons of room to grow, he is a clear top 10 talent and would make our forward core absolutely disgusting with macklin smith and 2 big high skill wingers in sennecke and musty to build off.

Anyone they get at 14 could be great value out of the pick but it may make sense for them to trade back. This sort of mock pretty much guarantees a solid prospect where Chicago is picking at 18. My guess is that 18 and 50 would be enough for 14 but 50 might be too far out for a reasonably good bet on a prospect but 50 could be used to move up from 33 or 42. A lot of the D that we were looking at with our early 2nd rounders look like they're creeping into the late 1st.

I get where people are coming from with not wanting our whole top-6 to be playmakers-first and Sennecke is certainly not a slam dunk or anything, but he’s got really high potential, size, and a ton of skill. Add that he’s a RW and I like his chance of developing a B game better than Eiserman’s and this is a no-brainer for me.

Eklund-Celebrini-Sennecke
Musty-Smith-Zetterlund

Eiserman is an 06 bday. That alone makes me feel a lot older than I already feel lol. He could’ve been one of the top picks in the 25’ draft. Kids got room to grow in a lot of areas but he’s elite in one area which is pretty important in the game of hockey; he can score goals with the very best of em. I honestly don’t care if he’s nothing more than a sniper who doesn’t ever do a lot of other things great. As long as he’s not a Hoffman level liability then I’m ok. Imo though, you take guys like him when you can get em. Sennecke is tempting ,and I feel like this is all a matter of your own personal opinion and taste, but I’m going with the guy with the established scoring pedigree. With all that being said, I can still totally get behind the choice if it’s Sennecke @14.

 

[matt trick]

Sennecke for me. We need a goal scorers, right wingers, and dmen. Sennecke brings excellent size, puck skills, and skating, and he's still growing into his body having grown four inches. I feel like he's maybe just a bit more projectable, but Eiserman's shot and instincts are elite. I'd be intrigued at trading up for Eiserman if he makes it past 20. I do think having Celebrini makes picking up Eiserman extra intriguing.

Like the idea of Musty and Sennecke adding size around Celebrini, Smith, and Eklund.

Step 1: Draft Sennecke at 14
Step 2: Acquire JGP + #20 for SJ 2025 2nd round pick
Step 3: Trade up to #15 using #20 and #42 and draft Eiserman to resolve this run-off debate
Step 4: ??? (future top-9 = Eiserman-Celebrini-Sennecke, Zetterlund-Smith-Eklund, Musty-Bystedt-Edstrom)
Step 5: Profit

Anything that has us have too much of anything would be a good problem to have.

 

[themelkman]

Not the same situation or player by any means, but Sennecke feels like an Ozzy Weisblatt type riser to me.

Ill risk it for the upside always.

 

[jMoneyBrah]

I’m switching back to Sennecke, but I’m torn and would be happy with either.

 

[fasterthanlight]

Randomly going eiserman because he's ranked higher by most professional scouts and what do I know

 

[Patty Ice]

Per request having a runoff election.

Who asked for this?

 

[spintops]

Just got done watching a youtube video on Sennecke sneaking into top 10 which has made me vote for him lol

Wiesblatt was not a “riser.” He was just inexplicably drafted 10-15 slots higher than anyone had ranked him by a nepo hire.

"ain't no fun when the rabbit got the gun"

What is true is that people often misinterpret polls to mean predictions. Polls are meant to give a pulse on the moment - and this far away from the draft, is almost impossible to predict this early on.

So what these people caution is against basically a self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts on polls - i.e. don't call it quits because a poll a month before draft day. Polls can and do increasingly become a story of their own that can discourage momentum and engagement and thus, eventually turnout.

Also non sharks fans are voting = gerrymandering. Demanding a recount LOL

 

[Munnyro]

My vote in my other thread was for Sennecke but I'm warming up to the swing for the fences Eiserman move.

 

[CanadienShark]

Give me both please. Gun to my head I'll vote Eiserman.

 

[Shark Finn]

I'll go with what my dream told me the other night.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

I doubt Esierman falls to 14 but apparently he and Celebrini have played together before

Yes but we must not fall into the trap of drafting guys for the sole purpose of us wanting them to fall in love with each other. Remember all the Czechs that we got for Hertl? Marty Kaut who wants nothing to do with the US anymore; Zadina; and countless other Czechs. Hertl doesn't even anything to do with us anymore.
