Monty Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Calgary Flames Roster and Updated Prospects Galchenyuk- Larkin - Kessel Johnsson - Schmaltz - Toffoli Lindblom - Nuge - Iaffalo Smith Pelly - Bonino - Texier Chabot - Ekblad Jacob Larsson - Bortuzzo Ceci Hellebuyck Notable Prospects: Vitali Kravtsov Kristian Vesalainen Alexandre Fortin Sean Durzi Samuel Poulin Vitek Vanecek Jimmy Schuldt Adam Brooks Philip Broberg Mattias Norlinder Mackenzie Entwhistle Nathan Smith Ilya Konovalov Henrik Samuelsson Yegor Korshkov Lukas Vejdemo Francis Perron Lots to work with, here. Definitely expect Vitali Kravtsov to get a spot on our roster, and to a lesser extent (but likely) Kristian Vesalainen. Biggest area to address will be defence. Once I get an idea of who’s hitting free agency (and to check out that list), that will be my first avenue to improve the backend. Then, it will be through trade. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Surfer Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 So Edmonton draft; #4 Alex Turcotte. > Can't take much credit for how good Alex will be? We had to be bad to get a good player! But we think we had a great draft. The real work in advance acquiring 3 extra picks in the 2knd, one extra in the 3rd. Then reacquired a 4th. We had traded our own 4th in this draft last year for a 4th. Which became Ivan Morozov. We missed out on Jack Rathbone & Emil Bemstrom. Secret cards. We did get two other mature age targets. #32 Alex Romanov > 38th overall pick by Montreal 2018. #36 Matthew Robertson > A safe pick versus aggressive pick, possible 1st rounder? #54 Nolan Foote > Actually the only pick we are nervous about. Pedigree, enough speed? So many ratings above 54 where we got him though. #61 Ilya Nikolayev > A favourite pick, creative, efficient & dangerous offensive player. # 80 Yegor Spiridinov > The pivot to one of the top lines in the MHL this past year. # 89 Martin Ferhervary > 19, he played SHL games FOUR seasons ago, barely 16, 1 Full SHL season this year, 3 WJC's & 2 WC's. A 2018 46th overall Wash. #118 Albert Johansson > A lot of upside in Albert & a value pick late in the draft We were going to take Dach 4th, until a few days ago. Dach did not seem that popular here. Maybe we dodged a bullet? It surprised. Dach available into the teens was one of the best picks in the draft IMO. I like him still! Picked Turcotte on work rates, he sticks his nose in the game, as well as scoring rates. Seems to me he will be a bigger winner. Great day, and thanks all! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To DET: Ryan Strome To MTL Erik Foley DET 2020 4th Round Draft Selection Draft Results: Spoiler Habs Draft Results: 13th Pick: (traded in package to CGY for Bo Horvat, CGY selected Philip Broberg) 44th Pick: C Jamieson Rees 76th Pick: D Drew Helleson 90th Pick: D Nikita Okhotyuk 102nd Pick: C Karl Henriksson 123rd Pick: D Samuel Bolduc A big day for the Habs franchise is complete! We made two trades, one of the blockbuster variety, and added some young skilled players via the draft. We needed to move some salary in order to afford some upcoming RFA contracts while keeping in mind that the cap is expected to only raise to $81.5-82m. We explored many options to do this, and when the opporutnity to bring in Bo Horvat, and his very team-friendly contract, to our group we felt that we couldn't pass it up. Strength up the middle wins you championships, and now with Bo joining Matt Duchene and Nolan Patrick as pivots, we feel that we have a very strong group to build around. We also felt that moving our 1st round pick was an option this year as Claude Giroux and Erik Johnson are on expiring deals this coming year, so we're all in.

Primal Optimist Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) MSG NEWS June 2019 Edition The New York Rangers swung for the fences and punted a three pointer with nothing but net. Entering the draft with our first round pick and 2 4th's the plan yesterday morning was to parlay that pick into as many selections as we can make in this very deep draft. I think we more than succeeded in that mission. 37th in the 2nd: Nicolas Robertson ~a great skater who blends quick acceleration with quicker edges 64th in the 3rd: Nikita Alexandrov ~a solid pivot who flashes high-level skill 74th in the 3rd: Aleksei Protas ~play has rocketed in the playoffs...ppg player...and looked terrific beside Leason 84th in the 3rd: Daniil Misyul ~a smooth skater who makes good decisions 94th in the 4th: Graeme Clarke ~a scintillating set of hands... 97th in the 4th: Marcus Kallionkieli ~a dangerous release and quick hands in front of the net 101st in the 4th: Yaroslav Likhachyov ~a real deep scout on this guy has me thinking big things in his future possible steal of the draft u heard it here first We also landed via trade: Michael Rasmussen Mattias Janmark Very proud to have landed all of these guys into our organization, top to bottom talent in each and every player. Really managed to stock the cupboard with this one, and we needed to. Bring on the real NHL draft so we can compare our prizes with where they end up playing!

Very impressed with our membership for sticking it out late into the night, and despite the later start and on a Thursday night, attendance was not an issue as some had feared it would be. Another successful draft! All pages should be updated with all picks. On a team note, very happy to have added two goaltending prospects in an area of need. 58 minutes ago, canuck2xtreme said: Saturday is the preferred day for sure, and next year an earlier start. Was only 6pm so people could get home from work for the 1st Round. Next season I'm thinking 3pm start. First, thanks for all your hard work making all the draft-magic happen C2X. Second, yeah let's not ever do that again Weekends. Three PM starts On to the Avs draft summary! First Round - We were pleased as punch to land Victor Soderstrom all the way down at 18. Another big piece in our getting incredibly deep, future D core. Victor Söderström Brynäs IF / SHL - 19/20 An uber competitive two-way defenceman who thinks the game at the highest level, A naturally gifted skater, his ability to traverse all three zones is best described as smooth and effortless. He never looks disinterested and it's always apparent just how badly he wants to win. His vision and awareness is great, allowing him to play a responsible yet dynamic brand of hockey. He's a dangerous puck-carrier with a great shot. Defensively, he makes good decisions quickly and consistently, never looking out of place when pitted up against the other team's top players. He pressures the opposition and limits options, never getting in the way of his goalie. Second Round - With our first second we took a chance on a guy we feel has first round upside but has had some injury issues and hence,some risk associated with him (and by far the biggest reason he was still available here in our opinion). Simon Holmström HV71 J20 / SuperElit - 19/20 An offensively skilled player who competes hard. Holmström is a good skater and stands out with really good hands and impressive puckhandling skills. Quite shifty and a player that can do the unexpected offensively. Has a good wrister and his two-way game is underrated. Great character and team player. Second Round - With the long term future of our current dual starters somewhat in question, our second, second round pick went to nailing down who we feel was the second best goalie in the draft behind the highly touted Knight. We feel there's no more important position to ensure a steady pipeline of high quality players in. And Sogaard is definitely a high quality player. Mads Søgaard Medicine Hat Tigers / WHL - 18/19 ”Huge pro presence,” Central Scouting’s Al Jensen said. “He moves extremely well for such a big goalie. Strong, efficient and quick lateral ability.” ”He’s just so fluid for his size, he has pretty good control in his game, and got stronger as the year went on, there was more control on lateral plays,” Martel said. “He took some steps and will continue to take steps once he gets on with an NHL team and goes to summer camp and rookie camp. He’ll keep evolving against really good shooters. He’s a very smart person and a very smart goalie.” Fourth Round - Way down near the bottom of the draft we feel we got an absolute steal in Jack. His character, skating, intelligence and compete all stand out and he looks to be another solid piece on D for Colorado with a fantastic year of development at Harvard already behind him. Jack Rathbone Harvard Univ. / NCAA - 19/20 Brackett: “I’ve known Jack; he’s actually played some summer tournaments for me back in the day. I have quite a bit a familiarity with him. A tremendous skater, puck mover, likes to get up in the play, has power-play ability, big shot from the point. Very exciting. The (high school) level is the level, but I’m not worried about Jack. He’s a self-starter and a go-getter. I expect him to dominate the way he did this year and continue to push the envelope.” Undersized defender with good vision, high-end skating ability and grit. Very elusive and uses his shiftiness to move pucks out of his zone and to the attack, which he will hop in on. His low center of gravity give him the ability to cannonball opponents and knock them off the puck. Every guy is noted for being excellent skaters/athletes, with high compete and solid character and intelligence. We're thrilled to have added them to our organization.
