nessus Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 I wonder what it would take for the Devils to get into the second round. There are likely going to be a couple first round-quality talents available early on day 2 tomorrow. With Fitz developing a surplus on defense (Pesce rumors), maybe he can work on getting that done.

Last year there was a ton of buzz about the Leafs moving one of Marner or Nylander on the day of the draft. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a post Monday by some NY baseball jorno claiming Marner to be traded tonight to Utah. Whoops 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nessus Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 For day 2, if the Devils can find a way to get into the early second round, Igor Chernyshov still hasn't been picked. He was a projected mid-first rounder, and probably worth giving up some assets for as long as it doesn't impact next season by any considerable degree. The Devils' prospect pool remains pretty thin at center, so I imagine Fitz will take a center or two. Hoping they go for a goalie as well. What I'm really looking for in tomorrow's selections is players that bring back the speed that the team has been missing lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralous Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 18 hours ago, MadDog2020 said: These pick swaps before the draft even starts is weird. It certainly feels like Buffalo made a mistake trading down from 11 to 14 before seeing how the draft played out. Highly regarded players fell to both 11 and 12 in Dickenson and Buium. Good work by the Sharks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-27- Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) 9 minutes ago, nessus said: Average height of Devils 2024 draft picks so far: 6'6 Silayev and Yegorov were my ideal scenarios for Devils 1st two picks. Obviously size was a big part of that. Lots of movement with the goalies, will be interesting to see how this class ends up in a few years.

jagknife Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Based on the two picks so far, fitz wanted size and agility. Yegorov will be at BU next year under Pando. He’s already here which is a massive plus, no KHL things to worry about 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kid seems like he would figure it out in either environment though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
