Great pick by the Wings!

He seems like Edvinson to me, no? I could see it. I could also see him trade up from 17 to like 14 to take him if he's still there

Yes it would lol

Guess you had it right

Sounds about right.

Lolz. Nice

Thanks for watching!

Yes they could! Axel Sandin P is a stud!

All i got to say is his offensive skills are superstar caliber. A little more strength and positioning isnt hard to add(basically he doesnt lack the tools). Whatever team gets him is gonna be so lucky, especially if its outside the top 6. Would be fantastic for vancouver fits the swede theme too, and when quinn leaves for the devils.

Simashev has star potential for sure

Sandin Pellikka has big ceiling in my opinion. Depends if a team can develop him properly like you said.

defensive ??? lmao you mean more offensive D not defensive by many means

I think in any other draft Sandin Pellikka would get selected higher, but when you're up against...Bedard, Fantilli, Michkov, Carlsson, Smith, etc...it's hard. Then again I think it will come down to where teams land after the lottery and what they need.

I like him for the Canucks too. His skating and breakout/passing make him almost a lock to be a top 4 guy. And the combine showed he's actually 5'11 180 so he's not small at all. Him and Quinn Hughes would make an insane pairing that would be unprecedented in the NHL. Two ultra mobile ultra high-IQ Defenceman. Ideally you get a big bruiser shut down guy to play with QH but this pairing could be a "mould-shattering" one in the NHL. His strength will improve. The only caner is those moments where he gets lost and does nothing in the D end

There's that offensive skillset!

So much for that! picked at #17! LGW!

well done Eric honestly Big respect for that one

I would say he is! If you look at his Junior numbers this season...they are insane for a D.

The Red Wings' super scout, Hakan Andersson, said Yzerman told them "no dogs", meaning we're not taking high skill guys who lack intensity or have a low compete level. David Reinbacher is a more likely pick from Yzerman.

​@@ledsohio exactly these guys have 0 clue about what's Yzerman's favorite type of profile in prospects Reinbacher fits the mold and even Simachev not sandin pellika at all

@@user-ed6nt1ml6p Lol IT'S YOU who has no clue about Yzermans prospect profile. Way to project through a youtube Comment. LES GO AXEL SANDIN to the WINGS

@@ledsohiowrong

@@jleif7736 Still the ASP profile is not the Yzerman's favorite profile look at Seider Edvinsson Wallinder but the RH side was a big need tho and ASP has huge offensive upside and he will complement nicely an Edvinsson or even Wallinder so I'm more than fine with that pick especially with the 2nd pick

True...we haven't seen that offensive side from Brannstrom yet or may not even. I think Sandin Pellikka may have a higher ceiling than Brannstrom, but you never know.

You don’t know what your talking about buddy

Then explain yourself, thats how an discussion work big boy. I could literally say the same to you, you dont know shit from your mom's basement buddy

​@@nhldraftpros I admit, I didn't watch Brannstrom a lot, but from what I read about him (including just recently), his biggest weakness is his skating. If true, Sandin Pellikka is nothing like Brannstrom then

@@anti-uefa I'm a big fan of Sandin Pellikka...his skating is unreal. Watching the U18s just confirms that. It seems like he's not even trying. It will be interesting to see what number he lands draft day. I think him or Reinbacher should go pretty high.

Yup...they are on the list. The U18 players will be coming out this week after Bedard and Benson. Thanks!

One live...Augustine. Others on video.

WOW for sure! The Sabres building something nice in Buffalo!

Kalan Lind wins top agitator in this draft for sure!

@@nhldraftpros thanks!!

He's on the list! Trying to get 2 videos out a week, so hopefully soon.

Kinda got a feel for that at the World Juniors and he did struggle a bit there offensively, but he has the toolset to produce...I guess he needs to adapt to the smaller rinks so some time in the minors may help with that.

​@@nhldraftprosyeah I think he'll got some GR showcase in something like 2 years

I have him on the list! Trying to get as many videos out before the NHL Draft in June, so hopefully he should be one that makes the cut!

You’re the best man, thanks!

Crazy edgework...can you say Makarish??? Or pushing it too far with that statement?

Hes not too big, but he uses his upper body to push his man up against the dashers. Very smart kid, he may go higher than David Reinbacher.

@@michaelbarton6548 I think it depends on what a team wants...if they want big and more defensive, then Reinbacher. If they want mobile and offensive then they go with ASP.

@@nhldraftpros Isn't Reinbacher a right handed shooter?

@@michaelbarton6548 Yup Reinbacher is a RHD!

Definitely has the tools similar to Makar! Will be interesting to see where he goes.

OOOPS!!!

Hmmm...that would be real nice if that would happen!

He's on the list for sure! I know some people have him ahead of Michkov, but I don't see it. Will be interesting how it goes at the draft.

@@nhldraftpros look like Gurianov, not sure about him, look lazy on the ice.

Yeah defenseman are harder to gage when it comes to long-term upside if they are not elite (think Dahlin). But Sandin P definitely has some offensive tools that a lot of teams like.

Hello St Louis blues

Ouch as a Hawks fan hope they don't end up with another Bovquist. I like Bonk in the second round. To much good forwards at 19. Although they made it known they want to move up.. Davidson has something up his sleeve. Trade with Vancouver. Than trade down further sacrificing there 2024 1st pick. Thinking they want Rienbacher or Mitchov. Staying at 11 would be fine to. Hawks have two first rounders in the 2024. Would they be worth a risk of Mitchov or Rienbacher. The later I feel is a big reach.

So stacked! I have Reinbacher as the top-D as well, but ASP has so much offensive potential!

Possibly!

YES!
