This draft is looking better than a lot of people were giving it credit for. Lots of talent

Everyone downplays a draft when there is no generational talent

This draft is very top heavy… First round is stacked, Second Round is great, 3rd round onwards is not so great… 2023 draft was stacked from the first to the 7th round… I think this 2024 draft will have a lot of NHL players on the first and second rounds but that’s about it for me at least…

A substantial set of fans claim every single draft has lots of talent. When in reality, NHL drafts must be relative in strength to other drafts. This one is ordinary at best and significantly weaker than last year.

@@tylerlussier1896stacked from 1st to 7th is the most hilarious thing I’ve read. Please tell me, what is your definition of “stacked”?!

He's 17 not 18.... That's a big year of development.

Great hands, tremendous edge work, wonderful hockey sense, splendid compete level.

Reminds me A LOT of Nick Suzuki when he was in his draft year. Same type of player with the same exact strengths and weaknesses.

There were rumors Habs might take him and at first I was worried about that because if the other big name forwards aren't available I'd rather a dman because you can trade that dman for a very good forward but then watching Iginla play I know it's 1 video but he looks like the type of player who can just work hard and keep the puck in the other end and he seems like that player you would want in the play offs! If they got him I can see slaf, reinbacher and Iginla being very hard workers in the playoffs! Making bigger differences than wright, cooley or even michkov when it comes down to playoff hockey. Those types of players could win you cups rather than having skilled small forwards racking up pts but being invisible in a long playoff run

True! and me to l hope Habs will pick this GEM. Sooo strong with the puck ; in my book he has equal talent than Demidov. Think also that Hugues/Gorton even if Demidov still availlable, they'll choose Iginla because he's probably NHL ready before Demidov, still(Demidov) has maybe two years before reaching the NHL. It doesn't look either very promising that the war will end soon and looks like its gonna be worst and worst than thought. Other good reason to beleive they'll pick him: Habs are absolutaly in love with Iginla strong style of play. Sacha Boisvert for the second first round pick would be unbelievable for the Habs near future.

I'd definitely take a chance on him knowing he's an Iginla.

This Kid is definitly a top 15 lock and to me he's definitly a top 10 pick I'm high on him

I’d say last years was quite a bit better. Bedard, Carlsson, Fantilli, Smith are all projected to be 1st line Centers. Bedard and Michkov could be generational players. I’d take this year for defensman but overall the talent was far deeper and higher last year.

Tij Iginla is on my radar and I hope he'll be seriously considered by Bobrov & Lapointe. Demidov and Lindstrom won't be available at Montreal's position 5, 6 or 7.

One of the youngest player of the draft, and with his playoffs stats right now, he might make it to the top 5 overall at the draft. I wouldn't be surprised if the Habs take him at 5th overall

Would Love to See the Flyers draft him. They need a goal scorer like him. Would like to see him and Tippet flying down the Ice together. Michkov too!

I wonder if he still is growing given his age. About as tall as his dad as of now. Really enticing prospect. Habs at around the 7th spot will surely be interested.

This kid is something

Calling it right now he will go to MTL 5th overall

Looks like he’s trending towards top 10

My Wings could definitely use this youngster 👍

To be a good passer you need to have a dangerous shot. The reason is that when the opposite team is scared of your shot, it will create openings for other teammates. I want this guy on my team.

I know it's probably gonna be 100% wrong but if I had to guess the draft order rn It'd be (1-10) Sharks: Macklin Celebrini Blachawks: Ivan Demidov Ducks: Artyom Levshunov Jackets: Cayden Lindstrom Coyotes: Sam Dickinson Canadiens: Berkley Catton Senators: Zayne Parekh Flames: Tij Iginla (dude the storylines if he went there would go HARD) Kraken: Cole Eiserman (I know he goes over Tij but the storylines like I said would be amazing) Devils: Anton Silayev

His young age also plays in his favor to go top 10. He's 7 to 8 months younger than a Berkly Catton or a Liam Greentree, 10 months younger than a Brandsegg-Nygaard. At that age it can mean such a difference.
