May 2024 NHL Draft Rankings (Part One)

[@tacocruiser4238]

Its so tempting to just focus on the flashy offense guys but I think the ones that are responsible on defense will be the ones that win the most games. Branndsegg-Nygard will be a WINNER in the NHL along with Celebrini. These two guys stand out for being well-rounded. You could also throw Cayden Lindstrom and Tij Iginla in that group as well.

I completely agree on MBN. If you watch my part 2 video, that’s why I also have Maxim Masse so high too

[@JapaneseAmericanaJiuJitsu]

Nygard reminds me of Phillip Danault, he ain’t flashy and he ain’t gonna be on the highlights but my god are you glad that he is on your team, just does the right thing when you need him to do so.

[@Briserlaglace-podcast]

Great list and very interesting conversation! But hey, if you want to rank Iginla higher than the "consensus", do it!! 🙂

[@Newwavehockey]

Thank you! I really feel iginla has earned his spot in the top 10 in these last few months

[@jasdosanjh7211]

@@Newwavehockey Iginla will probably be going 5th to Montreal. Got a hunch.

How much do you think the injuries to Jiricek and Lindstrom have hurt their stock? Just seeing peoples rankings on them gradually fall since their injuries.

[@Newwavehockey]

I would refer you to my part two where I covered 21-50 on my channel for Jiricek

Love the content so far, keep it up… would like to see MBN, Eiserman, or Sennecke on the sharks at 14. Based on what you said about MBN kinda seems like he’s a bit of a Celebrini light. However if we’re able to trade up (maybe the flames if Tij is gone) Buium or Dickinson would be incredible!

[@paulciavardoni8069]

Yeah stop saying Motte and Celebrini in the same sentence. The comparison is Toews with potential for even more offense than Toews. Players like Tyler Motte are literally a dime a dozen. He’s a journeyman. You should make better comparisons.

I mean free speech is a thing, you can disagree with what they say that’s fine but provorov just didn’t wear a jersey. Connolly is young and did something dumb to not want him to be employed is kinda ridiculous. People are going to say things you disagree with and you’re going to have to learn to live with that it’s crazy what you just said
