Hi. I'm "Gio Palermo", also known as "legorocks99" ("legorocks99Gaming", "LR99Gaming", or "LR99"). I post video game commentaries on RUclips revolving around "hockey", with a primary focus on "Vancouver Canucks", "Montreal Canadiens", "Detroit Red Wings", and top "NHL prospects" topics. These videos are uploaded with "NHL 24" gameplay in the background. I enjoy making these videos and I hope that you enjoy watching them!

This would affect trades more than anything else. Besides, teams don't just draft for the NHL, but the AHL also.
I don't like how it would also change trading a lot too. A rd 4 pick instead of a 7th round in a trade is a world of difference when you are trying to throw in something extra
100% agree, 7th round picks get moved alot cuz they're a great way to sweeten the deal. Throwing a 4th round pick would be too much for that purpose.
@@justfred6863 100%
You’re likely giving UDFA and two way cash like the NBA that you can trade.
That would be stupid
I agree!!
I think it would be a disadvantage for Canadian teams. Players want to play in the south already. The Markovs and Points of the draft will sign as free agents to American teams if they want them, Instead of Canadian teams getting a chance to draft them.🤷🏻♂️
I don't agree that the draft is too long and I like that teams have alot of picks to give more players chances while augmenting their odds of hitting a star or a roster player, but I understand how people could think 224 selections is alot.
HOWEVER, 4 rounds is insanely short. Hockey is nothing like the NBA where teams have like what, 10 players on the active roster? Hockey has 20 total, 12 F 6 D 2 G. Not only do we have more players on a team but we need to account for every position, some teams will go for best player available in the early rounds then go for the best of what they need in the deeper rounds like 4-7.
I could see getting rid of the 7th round because of expansion teams increasing the selection count, I could even see an argument for the 6th round. But theres no reason to touch the 5th round, at all.
I don’t like it at all. It’ll be an advantage for the big market, high profile teams. The undrafted free agents will choose the Rangers, Kings, Golden Knights, etc. It’s hard enough for the likes of Winnipeg, Columbus, and Buffalo to compete with the big markets.
5 rounds makes a lot of sense
Joe Pavelski who was in the playoffs 17 seasons was drafted at 205.
Datsyuk was the last pick of the draft too
@@irvinepoker3187 Not quite. There was an eighth and a ninth round of draft picks selected after him, but it is still pertinent that he went 171st overall in the 7th round.
@@icedo1013 I was thinking of jonathan ericcson lol I know he was selected last too lol and zetterberg was also a 210th pick lol
i believe its a great idea. players not picked are free agents. Also the value of picks will increase I believe. a 3 or 4th rd pick may become worth more.
Starting to think if two people on the bus had a conversation about hockey would you would make a video about it.🤔 I really have enjoyed your videos, but don’t water yourself down.
Sometimes you get Hall of Famers in the late rounds. Luck Luc for the Kings and Tom Brady for the Patriots come to mind. The big issue for the NHL is they don't just have one team to fill. They have 3 teams, and they are often very acomedating to prospects who want to stay in college or on a foreign team another tear or two. I would expect a greater number of washed players in the minors and fewer prospects electing to join the draft since they aren't ready and teams won't want to wait on them.
I like it. Look at all the drafts in the past and you rarely get over 120 NHL players on any given year.
Might want to look up LA's draft record after rnd 4 LA specifically the 7th rnd since Mark Yanetti was hired to run the scouting dept have about a 40% success rate
All the General Managers will disagree on this and they won’t even attempt doing this!
Four rounds is fine. It would put pressure on teams to develop a strong scouting program with an emphasis on players not likely to be picked in the 4th round.
Maybe bad for the NHL team as they have less bargaining chips to trade a player with later round draft picks
Not sure I agree with cutting it to 4. 5 makes more sense IMO, and if either side felt strongly enough at the CBA bargaining table, a case could MAYBE (and that's a big maybe for me) be made for round 6. The 7th round is basically useless though. Considering the number of players that actually see NHL ice from those rounds, round 7 is as good as gone.
I'm pretty split on this one. Lots of pros and cons that I can think of. Also, I should mention that though the video says it came from 9 rounds down to 7, for many years the draft was actually 12 rounds. Imagine if they still did that with 32 teams now! 😂
This is a great idea. The NHL draft should be 2 rounds like the NBA draft . 50% of the first round picks don’t play 80 games in the NHL the 2nd round drops down to like 10%. The NFL draft and the MLB draft are the only drafts that need more than 2 rounds.
Also, gives potential undrafted players to have more of a say. Granted, beggars can't be choosers
I would be for reducing the number of rounds, but not from 7 to 4 at once. I would remove one round per year to a total number of rounds of 5.
I don't trust Bettwoman. The only reason he wants to do it is so he can add a billion more teams to the league watering it down to nothing.
After the second round you can just tune out and do some research on the players yourself later. Teams look at who wasn't drafted like our good buddy Arbor Xhekaj
Gally would have never got drafted, Messier never would have gotten drafted, Kucharov. Bad idea
Long overdue
Check the mlb draft 💀
A four round NHL draft is just perfect in my book! Anyone else who isn't drafted can be signed anytime like the NFL.
Just get rid of the draft all together, it's an anachronism.
shut up
Yes,the top 20 prospects rights to Montreal Canadiens and rest of Canadian teams except leafs. The rest are free agents.
No thanks leave it as be this isn’t the nba
They are better off adding 6 roster spots for an additional line and a third goalie. It would be fun to see how that factor plays out in NHL games.
4 rotations of forward is well over enough, maybe a 4th D line could make sense but still un needed. And teams can already have 3 goalies.
lol they need to reduce players.
Excellent idea
This is good for prospect making it somewhere... Because round 5-7 players never becomes anything. So its useless
Plenty of amazing NHL players have been in the 5th to 7th round
@@Jon_Snow_88 yeah but those dark horses that comes every decade or something we barely hear from them. They barely get any media on them. And they dont turn out into anything because of that. So whats the point really?
