2024 Draft


Hughes hopes the team will be in a better position in the coming years and won’t need to draft as highly:

We definitely want to progress from one year to the next. It’s time to advance and be in the mix. And if that’s the case, if we succeed, we’ll draft later next year.

Just take Dicknson if he's there, then trade up with the WPG pick to get Sennecke. Maybe use Jordan Harris to make it happen.
 
Hughes just said that they will likely draft a forward, and one who’s ready to play in the NHL soon. Sounds like Demidov, Lindstrom or Sennecke. Catton is nowhere near NHL ready due to his size.

If he said that it is time for a new GM. You don't take nhl ready you take the guy you think will have the best career.

Perhaps not... but using a young NHL dman to move up a few spots isn't an absurd thought. And if that doesn't work, then try to trade up another way.
I understand but regardless, they’re not drafting Dickinson. Hughes has been clear that they won’t draft a Left D. I understand that we’re just saying who we’d like them to draft but when the GM repeatedly says we’re not doing X, asking him to do X seems pointless, no?

I watched him live 3 times , he is barely average in his own end

Same as Brzustewcz played on a stacked team and plays the entire PP

He is good but needs work


Stacked team?

He had 96 points. Next closest had 75.

I would assume that it’s understood that if two players are projected to have great careers, he’ll take the one closer to being NHL ready. I’m sure that’s what he meant.

Especially with good right D also up there.
