As a Habs fan, I wouldn't say Shane Wright is the center we've been waiting for all these years. it's good but not exceptional, and in terms of ability it's not the best. It is an excellent 2 center.
But very true, he is like my grandfather making wild call all the times and get them wrong 95% of the time but when he is right he gloats in your face.
Wouldn't say the Sharks problem is goaltending. At the end of the year Kahokonen was really good, Reimer has been amazing all year and Hill is solid, but will probably be the odd man out since Sawchenko is a good 3rd Goalie Main Issues: -Defensive Defencemen to play with Merkley or Vlassic -2nd line winger for Couture and Eklund Rest of the team is solid, I think I saw enough of Reedy, and Coe will get a shot in the NHL (Top 5 in OHL scoring; Won the overage player of the Year) When Bordeleau was playing on that 3rd line with Gregs and Balcers it looks like they'll be 20 Goal scorers cause Man we were scoring with Bords. 2nd Line with Eklund should hold and the 1st line of Timo, Tommy, and Barbs has always done well. (For those who think Barabanov doesn't belong there, when he was injured Timo barely scored at all same with Hertl) 4th Line of Neito, Bonino, Coe/Reedy is fine Or just throw Bonino as the 2nd Line winger (He had 16 Goals last year a majority of them in the last 15 Games when he was the 2nd Line winger...) And that is my Sharks report 😂 To Add (Edits): Defensively, Burns and Karlsson although not producing at Norris level will be guys who can and will get 50-60 Points in a season before Karlsson eventually gets injured of course (Which I think was the main downturn of the Sharks) Ferraro had a rough year, I know he's shown as some shiny toy, he's solid but had a TON of injuries this year and hopefully he bounces back Merkley is exciting and if fkn Boghner played him more maybe we could judge him Megna was resigned and for almost league min for a guy who was our best defensive defencemen, I'll take him Lastly Meloche and Knyzov. Meloche is an AHL'er period :D & Knyzov is solid was injured the whole year, but I hope he does well when he gets back
Columbus needs centers!! They need to grab Savoie at 6 and then steal Lambert, Nazar or Geekie at 12!! Columbus has a good young D core with Werenski, Boqvist, Bean, Garvi, Peeke and Carlson… plus Corson Ceulmans, Stanislav Svozil, Guillaume Richard and Samuel Knazko in the pipeline!! They’re all looking good and coming along nicely!! There’s to much Offensive Talent at Center to pass up in this Draft to go Defense!! Its a weak Defensive draft!! If Columbus gets Savioe and Lambart/Nazar/Geekie were good at center!! Plus we have DMITRI VORONKOV coming over next year who will be our 4th Center pretty much right away!! Dude is a beast!! Boone is our only Center right now… Silly may not be made out to be a center in NHL!! I see him moving yo wing!! So thats Boone and Kent Johnson but Johnson has another year or two before he’s ready!! Kuraly, Roslovic and Bemstrem arent cutting it!! They’ll do for next year but We need more Centers!! Plus were gonna blow next year and get a high pick!! So we take the Best defender in the draft!! Plus I almost guarantee you we ship Nyquist or Voracek at the trade deadline for another 1st for another defender in next years draft!! Rebuilding is a process!! But if you do it smart it won’t take that long!! Jarmo should’ve traded a pick + Texier or Domi + Korpi for Eichel and this rebuild would’ve been a whole lot quicker as he was traded for basically nothing!!!
Savoie didn't get Exceptional Status. He got denied and threatened to go NCAA with Denver to play with his brother Carter. Winnipeg still took him first in the Dub draft and got him to sign, he got 22 games as an Affiliate Player, the normal thing for 15 year olds in the Dub.
OTT missed out on Lucas Raymond, so Kemell makes a lot of sense for them. Right hand shot Kemell is a Panarin type. For DET I like Lambert, has a lot of speed into the zone and great awareness. Nazar, Yurov, and Lekkerimaki will also be probably there for consideration. Geekie is an outside possibility. Savoie still there? optimal but unlikely.
Sens dont need any defenseman we have way too many already we are taking a forward 100%. I want Kemell or Lambert hoping your prediction of Kemell coming to Ottawa is true
description= Juraj Slafkovsky could end up being the best player in the draft. he has great size and win most the battles on the boards,throw in natural goal scoring, solid speed and agility for a big guy , he scored 7 goals in 7 games against men at the Olympics sounds like Jagr as he had all these attributes.
I'm from Europe and I watch Liiga and I can say that you Americans have overhyped this guy, I don't even think you have watched him play, he is lazy defensively.
Not bad at all. I would prefer to see the Islanders go with Ivan Miroshnienko if Brad Lambert is not available. Ivan has a scorers touch and is a right-handed shot on the LW. I'd like to see them draft a forward who has a more offensive mindset. Could be a nice pick to provide scoring help down the line.
@@OneAndOnlyKJx Lol I think Savoie could end up being one of the best forwards out of this draft class. I think people are absolutely going to sleep on him, I think he will grow, and even if he ends up being 5'10 almost 6 ft, his game is complete and I think he could become something really special.
If Kraken take Nemec (or any team for that matter), they have to wait til the end of 24/25 to bring him over. Since he has said he wants to stay in Slovakia for the foreseeable future. I am not sure what his contract with HK Nitra entails, but if he has no interest of leaving Slovakia, signing him might be difficult. Even if he signs, he'll just be loaned to HK Nitra until his contract with them expires anyway. Players coming from the juniors are harder to gauge when it comes to play at the NHL level. Since they are playing against similar-aged players. Take, for example, Jayden Halbgewachs. He went undrafted. His final season (17/18) in Moose Jaw he put up 129 points - 70 of which were goals. So far in the AHL, his best output was this past season with 41 points in 59 games. Point being players in the juniors can light it up there, but once they go professional, they either show it wasn't just circumstance or they had a fluke-y draft year.
Conor Geekie will go higher. 6’4 205 Center on a WHL Winnipeg team that’s trying to make a Memorial Cup run. He’s playing at a point-per-game. I’ll be surprised if he makes it to 10 after the scouts get an extended look, especially if they make it past a deep Edmonton Oil Kings team that’s all built to go all the way
For sure lambert will be the steal of the draft. And if one of lambert or Nazar drops into the Teen I would love mtl trying to move up with their calg pick and 33rd pick.
i honestly think the canucks might trade their pick again. Unless someone drops down to them, i think they might try to get someone to have an impact next season, as they should be playoff hopefuls with BB back behind the bench.
@@Rosinn where would you rather see him? Your hometown?? Philly is one of the biggest markets in the United States for hockey. The team is struggling right now but we'll be back.
Geekie is a brutal skater and didn't produce enough. The league (regular season specifically) is all skating, and Geekie shouldn't go in the top 20. I just feel he screams Dal Colle/Crouse and that's not good.
I dont understand the point of u making the video if u have no idea about any european player and league quality. U are just delusional with all those guys like :D some guy carries a team on Olympics and u are like okay 7 goals at olympics whatever . Nemec as 17yo having more than point per match. Then u have someone in a junior league who never played a men match and u are absolutely sure he is so good. More and more players will flop with time just like english football talents because media and people like you overhype them and put so much pressure.
Bunch of you have been asking for this one! Do you agree with my predictions??
You talk about size quite a bit so i’m curious where you’d have jagger firkus? he lead moose jaw in points but is very undersized
I think Detroit will go with marco kasper

@@jean-christophemarier1318 If you're waiting for Crosby, McDavid, or Matthews that's being quite greedy haha. Wright should be a #1C in NHL easily

"Craig Button you can't really trust him" absolute savage commentary
But very true, he is like my grandfather making wild call all the times and get them wrong 95% of the time but when he is right he gloats in your face.
Says the guy that has Nazar at 12 lol. He's getting top 7 hype at the moment. Don't be surprised if he goes higher
@@missadrianegragera I mean Button has him at 24.
He’s right though, button is clueless
Wouldn't say the Sharks problem is goaltending. At the end of the year Kahokonen was really good, Reimer has been amazing all year and Hill is solid, but will probably be the odd man out since Sawchenko is a good 3rd Goalie
Main Issues:
-Defensive Defencemen to play with Merkley or Vlassic
-2nd line winger for Couture and Eklund
Rest of the team is solid, I think I saw enough of Reedy, and Coe will get a shot in the NHL (Top 5 in OHL scoring; Won the overage player of the Year)
When Bordeleau was playing on that 3rd line with Gregs and Balcers it looks like they'll be 20 Goal scorers cause Man we were scoring with Bords. 2nd Line with Eklund should hold and the 1st line of Timo, Tommy, and Barbs has always done well. (For those who think Barabanov doesn't belong there, when he was injured Timo barely scored at all same with Hertl)
4th Line of Neito, Bonino, Coe/Reedy is fine
Or just throw Bonino as the 2nd Line winger (He had 16 Goals last year a majority of them in the last 15 Games when he was the 2nd Line winger...)
And that is my Sharks report 😂
To Add (Edits): Defensively, Burns and Karlsson although not producing at Norris level will be guys who can and will get 50-60 Points in a season before Karlsson eventually gets injured of course (Which I think was the main downturn of the Sharks)
Ferraro had a rough year, I know he's shown as some shiny toy, he's solid but had a TON of injuries this year and hopefully he bounces back
Merkley is exciting and if fkn Boghner played him more maybe we could judge him
Megna was resigned and for almost league min for a guy who was our best defensive defencemen, I'll take him
Lastly Meloche and Knyzov. Meloche is an AHL'er period :D & Knyzov is solid was injured the whole year, but I hope he does well when he gets back
I feel like the Yzerman pick will be a surprise. Unless of course someone like Savoie drops.
It's gonna be nazar
Nazar feels like Yzerman’s type
Lambert
Saw scouts campate him to
KANE. COLUMBUS might take him and Geeky at 12.
@@tomslick2058
Well at least they’d get ONE good player out of it 😅😂🤣
(Geekie is a flop. Floppie Geekie)
It's crazy that it's time for the second round already.
Jackets are in a nice spot to get two really solid players. Their prospect pool has really turned around.
Here's my top 16
1. Wright
2. Slafkovsky
3. Cooley
4. Nemec
5. Jiricek
6. Kemell
7. Savoie
8. Nazar

Shane wright going to montreal will be cool to see, and I’m not even a habs fan! Awesome video Tac!
Would love Jiricek at 6 for CBJ. Hoping for him or Nemec and then just getting the best forward available at 12.
You already have Samuel Knazko. He is amazing just wait and see.
@@jozefmasny8349 Knazko is a LHD. CBJ need to add to their RHD prospect pool.
@@T.D.3 If you wait two years, you can as well for Jakub Chromiak, younger brother of Martin Chromiak. He is RHD as well.

@@fallendevonish1869 100% Agree. Still a fantastic young player but isn’t even the best Slovakian player in the draft.

Will be interesting to see if Savoie falls to like 8 because of his size
I hope so. I'd be so happy as a Red Wings fan. Not saying Yzerman wouldn't pick someone out of left field lol.
Savoie at 8 will be a steal

@@jleif7736 easily. Nazar, Cooley and Savoie are easily the best offensive prospects of this draft. Their creativity and skill is beyond anyone else
Is it just me or did you see the unetided wedding photos ad
Pavel Mintyukov’s also the first defenseman in Spirit history to lead the team in points for the season
Did not know that! Very cool! Although Saginaw did suck this year lol
The left side of the Sabres defense is set with Dahlin, Power, Samuelsson. Sabres don’t need everything.
If I’m Seattle I’m taking Jiricek over Nemec. I really think Jiricek is better but maybe Nemec has higher upside?
Nemec is a world class skater compared to Jir
Half of me wants slafkovskys draft stock to drop so Philly can pick him up but I think we’re taking nemic
Flyers going defense would be my guess.
@@croydonsfinest007 I think Philly going defense is a lock at 5. Same team that employed Justin Braun and Keith Yandle in the top 4…
If Kraken take Nemec (or any team for that matter), they have to wait til the end of 24/25 to bring him over. Since he has said he wants to stay in Slovakia for the foreseeable future.

How u get the draft board or u make that
Hey man, awesome video! Where did you get that shirt?
American Eagle haha
Do a offseason signing prediction. Also who will the red wings snag? We could use a true no.1 C or someone to split it with Larkin
If Yzerman takes Lambert, those rumors about his compete level better not be true.
I think his style is more accustomed toward NA style of play. In Liiga you need to be physical to succeed and a lot of teams like to play 1-4 trap.
I was waiting for this video 😁
I feel Yzerman will draft Johnathan Lekkerimaki unless Matthew Savoie falls to Detroit's lap.
I think as a swede that kasper are going in top 15. Easy mvp in swedish playoffs for rögle
I had him at 16 but took him out for a Dman
Wright is not a Franchise player. Unless he becomes Towes 2.0.Could be another Dach. Slafkovsky scratches my itch.
Nemec is pure offense, defending does not look very projectable
Man that RoTS poster looks sick lol
For sure lambert will be the steal of the draft. And if one of lambert or Nazar drops into the Teen I would love mtl trying to move up with their calg pick and 33rd pick.
with his compete level, no.
Craig Button had Brad Lambert at 35…
