Who will the Wings draft with their first round pick?

[Nut Upstrom]

Place your bets!

Feel free to add who you would choose if given the GM reins for a day

I think we will go MBN - just inundated with talks of him going to the Wings.

I would draft Hage unless a Helenius or Catton et al fell into our lap.

Sennecke if he is somehow available, or if not, Hage

 

[HisNoodliness]

MBN has been a Red Wing for 6 months as far as I'm concerned.

 

[schuelma24]

I'm going with Pronman's last mock - Solberg.

 

[jkutswings]

Mitch Marner.

Not really. Just thinking of the name that would create the biggest HFB explosion.

It would be great if somebody like Catton or Helenius fell. But I'm guessing it'll be MBN.

 

[Frk It]

Picking Hage to try to speak it into existence. But it will almost certainly be a Norwegian.

 

[LongTimeDRWF]

Other...I think someone will SY an offer he cannot refuse

 

[ZDH]

Rutger McGroarty

 

[DamonDRW]

That big Norwegian player. You're never wrong drafting a true viking.

 

[Our Lady Peace]

Luchanko is my hunch

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Voted Helenius. If he's there I can see Stevie tripping over himself to draft him. Although I suspect he'll be off the board and Detroit will draft MBN.

 

[PelagicJoe]

I haven't really paid as much attention to this draft since it's a weak one compared to last year. It will likely come down to best player available, and I'm putting my dollar on it being a forward.

 

[RedWingzz]

think: MBN
want : Eiserman

 

[Michael Brand Eggs]

MBN seems like the safe bet. If he's not there, I think they go with Hage or Solberg.

 

[Holden Caufield]

I’m going to go on a limb and say Helenius is the most likely guy to drop a bit and I think we will pick him in that scenario.

If there are no fallers. I think Yzerman would have a hard on for MBN or Luchanko. So probably one of them.

Sennecke if he is somehow available, or if not, Hage

Wheeler and Pronman did a podcast Yesterday and they are convinced the Sennecke steam is even stronger then people think. Based on all their sources, they sounded very sure he will go between 3-7.

 

[Run the Jewels]

As long as it's a Euro / Hakan pick I will be fine. He's got the best track record of any of our scouts.

 

[izlez]

Think it will be MBN, and I will be happy with that.

Really want Iginla or Sennecke, but seeming less and less likely that we have a shot at them

 

[Henkka]

This guessing game is always so time wasting, because you don't know who are the first 14 guys picked up.

I'll answer later today when the first 14 are picked up.

Yeah...

2019 - Seider
2020 - Raymond
2021 - Edvinsson
2022 - Kasper
2023 - (Danielson) & Pellikka

Håkan has had a first rounder now 5 years in-a-row.

What a nice list of first round picks, excluding an excellent young goaltending prospect. Whoever was the director of amateur scouting for those picks must have done a good job, and surely wouldn’t be the frequent scapegoat if this message board

The YzerPlan. So nice having a GM who understands who are his best scouts.

 

[lilidk]

I'm going with Pronman's last mock - Solberg.

He's been more correct than wrong lately

Now it's a Draper turn. He will choose first and let Hakan pick rest.

 

[lilidk]

Went with Hage, because I like him the most among most likely available prospects.

 

[saska sault]

Think it will be MBN, and I will be happy with that.

Would love Iginla but got to think zero chance Calgary let's him slide past them if he's there.

 

[DamonDRW]

We need three big centers: Danielsson, MBN, and Kasper. I was too young when it was painful to play against us. Want to see it myself.

I want us to be 07 Ducks not 08 Wings

MBN is not a center.
