Bedard and Moore in the 1st round - and didn't need to spend draft capital to trade up. I could not be more thrilled.
There will be some very good players sitting there at 35 tomorrow.

So who were consensus 1st round picks and did not get drafted today. Need to find the next Saad or DeBrincat n round 2 tomorrow. Cristall would be the highest, Dragicevic, Heidt, Brindley, Hameenaho, Jayden Perron maybe. Not all consensus but sure to go next round. All seem to have flaws, mostly size, skating or work ethic which is why they’re still here. Maybe one of the Cze./Svk. goalies might be the way to go. |

i would like danny Nelson from USA program please or the kid from the Tbirds Danny Nelson crossed my mind as well. He was a defenseman until joining the USNTD program where he was converted to a forward. Big body, still maybe learning his position. They’ve drafted skill, maybe this is a great depth pick. Couple of guys here talking about him. youtu.be/erY_vgcgoeA |

I think the 2nd round will defy this draft for the Hawks. Bedard is a no brainer and Moore may be a miss. However, if the Hawks do pick all 4 in the 2nd round. We’ll see a massive uptick in the Hawks prospects. I wouldn’t take a goalie in the 2nd or 3rd round. Maybe 4 or 5. But it’s stupid to waste a pick on a long term project that early.
Also. For those clamouring for Milic. Look at the tying goal in the gold medal game. If he was the recommended 3-4 taller, he stops that. I think he gets passed over again!!!

Since Honzek did not fall to us, I'm hoping for G Gajan to be picked by the Hawks. |

if this guy is right, the last time there were no trades in the first round was 2007 when we drafted kane at #1.
kind of boring with no trades. hopefully day 2 makes up for it.

I like the Moore pick... ahem, more now.
I thought he was 170s, I had not seen his new weight. 195 makes me more of a fan, tbh. he could be our 2LC, he should be our 3LC at minimum.
I like Morin @ 35.

I thought there was a post on here a few weeks ago that mentioned KD saying he might not use all the picks in the draft. If KD did say that, with 4 picks in the 2nd and 2 in the third, what are the chances we might see one or maybe two of these picks go in some sort of trade for a pick(s) in a future draft?

Cristall and Brindley dropping a clear indication of focus on some size with skill in first round forwards picked.

I like Morin @ 35. When you look a short ways down the road, we'll have Nazar and Moore added to Bedard. That's three with skill and are good skaters. When you read about Moore, it does seem like he could become a good 2/3 LC. |

If he plays the wing he should be with Bedard, who wouldn't want Moore Bedard. It's nice having versatile forwards because the top four can play center or wing, Bedard, Moore, Nazar, and Reichel. So can Dach, Savoie, and Ludwinski. |

The Hawks now have four legit prospects for the top six at forward - Nazer, Bedard, Reichel and Moore. Not one is even league average in height.
As much as I hate passing over legit talent in the draft, I just can't see the point in adding players like Cristall, Heidt, Perron or Brindley at this stage. There will be no spot for more of this type of player.
I see the Hawks loading up on power forwards, big defencemen and goalies this afternoon. My first choice would be the big Czech defenceman Dvorak. Scouts say he is 6'5" and can skate. If Gajan or Hrabal is available later in round two, that's my second pick. Hopefully Wahlberg, Halttunen or Nelson is around for those later second round picks.

Those 4 aren't tall but Bedard and Moore will be around 200lbs when they're done growing, Reichel and Nazar will be in the low to mid 190s, those are 4 solid fast, skilled players, but I agree more size on the top6 is needed. Only 2 of those 4 should be on a line together and playing with a power forward. Of course they can aquire some through trades and signings but it's always nice when they're from your own draft. It's going to be an interesting day 2 of the draft. |

And aren't forced to play wing because they just can't play C. Dach would certainly be a C with size. |

I know I said before that Basse is the only G prospect in the system still in amateurs, and he's already 23. It's time to add a young prospect. |

Hopefully Wahlberg, Halttunen or Nelson is around for those later second round picks. I agree. I really hope that the org isn’t fixated on just smaller kids that can skate. Playoffs won’t be kind. I get it, they can add later. Look at NJ. Added Meier, and now Tofolli. They had no choice. They had to trade smaller speedier guys to get bigger. Although we want bigger guys. I still think the org is looking at the best skaters. I also agree with that Dvorak kid. Could be a nice addition in a few years time. Also think it’s best now to keep all the 2nd rounders. The 1st round is done and moving up into the first is impossible. So, I see no reason to trade any of them. Load up and see what happens. After next years draft, the rebuild will more than likely be almost over. It’ll be just waiting on guys to make the jump. There’s gonna be 15 really good prospects next year. Like really good!!! |

Dach would certainly be a C with size. Dach played center for Bedard in an exhibition game with Canada and Bedard had good things to say about him, Dach also played the wing for Canada before injuring his shoulder, he could play on Bedards wing with Moore, Nazar, or Reichel one day. And that's a good mix of righties and lefties, so they can take draws on their strong side. I can't wait to see Savoie at the next camp considering Luke was thinking of giving him an extended look last season. He's only 5'10" but he was in the mid 190lbs last year, he might be 200lbs by next camp. Tough gritty kid who can play up and down the line and loves to hit, could be our version of Marchand. |
