The Hockey World is always changing. Players come and go from teams and even the league. We've got a passion for the sport so here are our takes on the ever-changing sport of hockey!
You have done a terrific job ! Love your draft boards . so happy to have Demidov and hage! i had the same reaction as you to your leafs pick ... so better players was availables but this year draft was so weird and unpredictable .
Thanks for the kind words! Montreal definitely made off like bandits from the first round this year. Demidov and Hage were amazing picks. Danford has grown on me but I still had some players who were my favourites that I wish we’d taken. Thank you so much for watching!!!
Hey! This is Ryan, thanks so much for the positive feedback to our video! It definitely sounds like MTL will be looking for a top 6 add, we’re just operating in a world assuming the picks aren’t traded for a player! We think Demidov and Connelly add two very dangerous playdrivers on each of MTLs top 2 lines but we’ll be exploring tons of different scenarios in our future mocks as we approach the Draft!
Bigdicker we were having a conversation on the sdpn network. It wasn't offside. Why did you delete your comments? Now it seems like im crazy just talking to myself.
Flames did not get robbed. Wasn't great however it was fair. The fact they did not sign the long contract offer he was asking for was a win in itself. have you noticed what similar players in that age categories were going for? Cap dumps basically. So he had a career year. Good luck getting him to repeat those numbers over the next few seasons.
from what I've read, Sale's issue is his compete level and work ethic. He has lots of skill but takes plays off. Really doesn't feel like a Yzerman pick to me, if you like at players like Seider, Raymond and Kasper... all have high compete. But really fun mock draft, you really had some hot takes with Gulyayev, Cristall that high and Dvorsky falling out of the top 10. I don't think Simashev falls that far either.
Hey thanks for the comment! In hindsight perhaps a guy like Honzek might have been a very nice pick for DET at 17 (he ended up falling out of our first round which in hindsight we don’t think is likely to happen) I do wonder where Sale falls to in the draft. His fit with WPG could be interesting, they seem to show that they value taking BPA, and any team after 20 should consider him purely off of value. Glad you enjoyed the video though! We had a lot of fun recording it!
Honzek is a pretty intriguing player, pretty productive in the WHL and with the combination of his skill set and his size could be very dangerous. Definitely needs to grow into his size and he does sometimes suffer with the attention to detail and consistency that Sale’s fall has been commonly attributed to. Good news is he isn’t afraid to leverage his size while playing in the dirty areas of the ice. Who do you think is in play for the Red Wings with both of their picks in the first round?
@@TundraCast jesus, a lot of people. We need a lot. Benson, Moore, Willander, Wood, Simashev, Barlow. Our biggest need is goal scoring, but another RHD is a possiblity as well. Simshev doesnt really fill a need for us, but man does he feel like a Wings pick. I would pay good money to see teams go up againt a top pair of Simashev-Seider.
Rumor says that Philly is retaining 50% of his cap hit making this an absolute steal for the canes. DeAngalo did well in the canes system and stayed out of trouble as well for the most part I see him being a replacement to Shane Gostisbehere as he will slid in great with chatfield on the line. Despite all the Pesce trade rumors, I do think we will eventually find cap for him as he has stated he doesn’t want to leave Raleig. Also most recently rumors made it seem as we are getting close to an extension as well
Getting him was a bad move by Chuck Fletcher in the first place. Gave the Canes 2 draft picks & signed Tony to a big contract. He did most of his scoring as the Power Play quarterback. Terrible at 5-on-5 or in penalty kill situations. Never really meshed his pairing with Provolov on the 1st D-pair. Defensively a liability with too many turnovers & dumb penalties. Wore out his relationship with Coach Tortorella resulting with several benchings & healthy scratches.
Maple Laugh Fan: "If it wasn't for the ref's sucking, we woulda won...derp, derp". That's the go-to Laugh Fan excuse. It's un-real. I don't hear ANY OTHER FAN BASE use this like Laugh Fan does. It's surreal.
Expanding on what I meant. I believe Vancouver will trade anyone (Not named Elias Petterson, Quinn Hughes, and Andrei Kuzmenko). So everyone in my opinion who they can manage to trade will be.
@@OnwardsUpwards So if the Islanders miss the playoffs and end up getting a top 12 pick this draft since its protected it'll go back to NYI and Vancouver will get an unprotected 1st rounder in 2024 so no matter what happens in 2024 Vancouver has the pick.
@@rossiroo5426 In a brand-new dynasty league or inheriting orphaned teams in a very active dynasty league? I may be able to swing either as I run a network of Fantrax dynasty leagues with a commish committee. LMK if you're interested in further and I'll send my contact info.
