Sharks get anywhere between 1-4, I'll be satisfied. (Hoping for Shaffer though... Him, Dickinson, a few other prospects and some free agents.. the sharks d-core will be fine) Misa, hagens, martone would be great too. (Just means the sharks with their massive and growing cap space will go to the ufa's more for their defense)
Hagens is a perfect second line centreman for Bédard or celebrini but they could also get a franchise defenseman. Chicago and San Jose are getting there second piece to a future powerhouse. Took oilers 8 years to be contenders since mcdavids draft.
Which is exactly why these full tear down rebuilds don’t work…you need solid vets to surround these rookies for their development, and these teams don’t have that
@@Ck69420 I think he’s whole point is it does work u need a few veterans in a rebuild to guide younger players but those veterans won’t be apart of the team when contending
@ I’d want the two way centreman that will play pp and pk behind Bédard but misa is a good option, I really wanted to see his skills at the world jrs but it is what it is.
There were some questionable rankings imo but not terrible. Also I don’t think Matthew Schaefer is a lock at no.1 but he’ll be a great player no doubt about it.
@@timsimtv That is what i am talking about, I like the idea of that for the two teams. I suppose is San Jose is picking #1, they gotta go Schaefer but I think Hagens really was something at the WJC.
It’s gonna come down to the team selecting #1 in the end. A team will have to ask themself if they wanna pass on a potential #1 dman or a #1 scoring center/winger.. If you ask me, I think it may be way harder to find yourself a true #1 dman in the NHL. Not that Schaefer is a guarantee #1, but if you look at Makar, Heiskanen, Hughes, McAvoy, etc- what do they all have in common? They can skate, have offense, can defend, they can essentially do it all. Schaefer checks most of those boxes. He’s a good choice to take that chance on
Never knew about Schaefer’s mom; even as a sharks fan, if things don’t fall right and we don’t get him, I’m still hoping the best for him his entire career and the rest of his life
I would say the top 10 is pretty good. After that it starts to become a wild card and anyone can get chosen at any point. It’s been like this the last few years it feels like. I wouldn’t look too much into future line projections. Hagens has high end skill, if a team lacks that then he may have a good shot to be on line 1. It really depends on team development at the end, for any player
To my above comment- just to give an example- how about Nico Hischier. At the time, it was Nico vs Nolan for #1. It was a pretty weak forward year for drafting and Nico was looked at as a low end #1 pick. However, he’s a pretty dang good player. 2nd line for New Jersey but I strongly believe some teams out there would gladly welcome Hischier on their first line. Macklin Celebrini, deemed a lower level #1 pick but he was the consensus #1. Was not “Bedard” hype level. But look at him as an 18 year old for San Jose…easily their best player. He’s having an outstanding rookie season. Can you imagine what he’ll be when he develops man strength and is 24-25 years old? Probably a consistent 100 point player. Just throwing examples! Projections is hard to do, it’s all about team situations and development
@@Lebowski55Jack Hughes looks around the 5’10/5’11 mark too. I don’t think it’ll be an issue with Hagens, his skill will outweigh the height “issue” IMO
I do agree Matthew Schaefer is the best talent of the draft. However im worried about his injury in his draft year and how it could affect his development. It worked out pretty well for Morgan Rielly, Mark Stone and Pastrnak but not so much for guys like Peyton Krebs, Gabe Vilardi, Hendrix Lapierre and Oliver Kylington
dont understand how hagens isnt number one..... canada had all these top 10 projected picks on the roster and was one of the worst teams at the world juniors...... the US has left us in the dust in player development..... congrats chl players you beat up 16 year old kids who weigh 150 pounds while the us college kids are playing grown men. unbelievable
After McDavid, Matthews and Laine etc. Every single time draft has/have someone couple of "generational talent". It's impossible say about 18-years old guy that. Rantanen, Hintz and Aho weren't "generational talents", but end up to be better players than Puljujärvi or Juolevi.
Habs fans are weird as hell. Going to any post talking about hockey on any way and have to mention "Lane Hutson is incredible, and his defensive metrics aren't as bad as everybody says, and he's not a power play merchant he just happens to have almost half his points there." He's a great player. Leave us alone. We're talking about other shit here.
It crazy that teams haven’t figured out that good goalies are rare and highly sought after assets the fact that a goalie is fringe 1st doesn’t make any sense draft that goalie
Goalie evaluation is difficult. Walstedt was potentially the best prospect in the AHL the last couple years, and is posting about an .850 this year. He might come back, he might not. They're much less predictable.
Must have been hard to find highlights to show from Canadian players at the World Juniors.
Schaefer did collide really hard with the goal post. Imagine how that projects to him collapsing down on a puck carrier.
Ouch
😎🇺🇸
You’re funny
It really depends on who will end up with the first pick, saying this is the Matthew Schaefer draft is a bit premature.
Sharks get anywhere between 1-4, I'll be satisfied. (Hoping for Shaffer though... Him, Dickinson, a few other prospects and some free agents.. the sharks d-core will be fine)

thays what they all say
Misa is a better Center than Hagens. Misa would be the perfect 2nd line Centerman for the Blackhawks because they are very small up front as is.
@ I’d want the two way centreman that will play pp and pk behind Bédard but misa is a good option, I really wanted to see his skills at the world jrs but it is what it is.
That’s an absolute lie. There was NEVER any time that McDavid was not the consensus first overall pick.
Geno needs to go get checked out for dementia
This. All I ever remember was Eichel being labeled as “the greatest consolation prize ever”
There were some questionable rankings imo but not terrible. Also I don’t think Matthew Schaefer is a lock at no.1 but he’ll be a great player no doubt about it.
Don't get me wrong Matthew Schaefer is a very talented defenseman, but if I have #1, there just ain't no chance I am passing on Hagens...
Chicago will do the unthinkable
chicago need another talented forward. if they get pick 1 they are taking Misa or Hagens for sure. The sharks are definitely in need of Schaefer
@@timsimtv we take Schaefer and trade korchinski

Misa should go number 1
From dell is cooking though. Om Monday he became the first ever 17 year old to score 4 points (2+2) in a single game in hockeyallsvenskan
if buffalo wins the lottery they taking Schaeffer? yet another 1st overall dman? I think id take hagens if in their shoes
Matt Schaefer can be the next Scott Niedermayer.
Can also be the next Erik Johnson.
Isn't Michael Misa a much better, detailed 2 way player than Clayton Keller?
Much larger and significantly more productive. Don't think Keller was ever a projected center either. Makes very little sense to me as well.
Seems like a bad draft. They all project 2nd line except misa according to bob
A bad draft according to Bob
It probably is a weak draft. I think the top 10 will be good with consistent quality, but very shallow.
I would say the top 10 is pretty good. After that it starts to become a wild card and anyone can get chosen at any point. It’s been like this the last few years it feels like.

Such bias towards the Canadian players..they aren't as good as they used to be. McKenzie lives in the past.
ONLY if hell freezes over 3 times NOT once Coilers SNIFF the Cup this years ... 1 time last season NEVER another
One of these muchachos are a Blackhawk
That’s a lot of Canadians. Must be an amazing world juniors team………..
Historically drafting defense first overall is bad turn out. Look at buffalo power, Dahlin. T
Top 5 picks projected as second line players? Weak draft?
I do not like it when they invite these young players that yet have not got drafted. I found it cringe and I did not watch further than 11:35
Yeah, Hagens is not quite 6 feet tall at 5'10.5" as a Centerman.
So same height as Point, Aho, etc.
@@markstaud NHL Central Scouting listed Aho at 5'11.25" RW. Not exactly a good comp. Point is a good one though. Thats only 1. Who else at Center?
@@Lebowski55Jack Hughes looks around the 5’10/5’11 mark too. I don’t think it’ll be an issue with Hagens, his skill will outweigh the height “issue” IMO
@@centralhockey12 I don't think Hagens is as talented, as good of a skater or as skilled as Jack Hughes though. And hes a bit smaller.
I do agree Matthew Schaefer is the best talent of the draft. However im worried about his injury in his draft year and how it could affect his development. It worked out pretty well for Morgan Rielly, Mark Stone and Pastrnak but not so much for guys like Peyton Krebs, Gabe Vilardi, Hendrix Lapierre and Oliver Kylington
Vilardi????????????
took him a long time to figure it out and shake the injuries @BrandonKang23
Collarbone is not an injury that would linger or affect development usually
Vilardi has been killing it ever since he got traded to the Jets
Mcdavid came back
Does Buffalo take him at 1st overall if they win the lottery?
With Dahlin and power both on the left? Probably not, unless they expect to move one of them in a trade.
And Byram @@danmoore1678
Funny #3 wasnt on the world junior team
dont understand how hagens isnt number one..... canada had all these top 10 projected picks on the roster and was one of the worst teams at the world juniors...... the US has left us in the dust in player development..... congrats chl players you beat up 16 year old kids who weigh 150 pounds while the us college kids are playing grown men. unbelievable
Did Connor tell you if your don't drop your gloves you can use your stick and 2 hander the player in front of his face or the side of the players head
@14:21 HELP OUT THEM …… LOL boys gona give him shit for that
Also @12:13 my guy was Fallon apart up there
Schaefer has the ability to develop into a high octane offensive defender like makar and Hughes.
Every player eligible this year, who played on Canada WJ team, should be disqualified
weak draft

lane hutson is better than schaefer
Ok? He’s also almost 4 years older. And not relevant to 2025 draft rankings
Habs fans are weird as hell. Going to any post talking about hockey on any way and have to mention "Lane Hutson is incredible, and his defensive metrics aren't as bad as everybody says, and he's not a power play merchant he just happens to have almost half his points there."

Omg we love Lane Hutson . There is no better pick than him . Forget the 2025 lol 😅😂😅

You probably watch basketball, American handegg or baseball, which are the most boring sports on the planet. Darts and bowling are more exciting.
Why would you even watch this video if you don’t like hockey bro… that’s fully on you
