>>153282912Which might not be the worst thing in the world for the hawks, because the 2027 draft is considered weak at the top according to people who write about the draft that I trust
Not even in the Olympics can I escape Drury
>>153282921every draft is weak for the forseeable futurewe need a new baseline for zoomies and beyond since we arent making crosbys or mcdavids anymore
>>153282912>>153282921>The 2026 NHL Draft class is currently viewed by scouts as an average group, neither exceptionally deep nor historically weak. While it lacks a "generational" consensus talent comparable to past first-overall picks, it has steadily improved throughout the 2025-26 season, with evaluators upgrading it from "below average" to "average" as top prospects have excelled in pro and collegiate leagues.
>Key Takeaways for the 2026 Draft Class>Highly Competitive Top Tier: There is no runaway #1 prospect. Instead, a group of 8–9 "Tier 1" players are considered mostly indistinguishable at the top, leading many scouts to believe the 3–5 pick range this year is more valuable than in 2025.>Positional Strength: This class is noted for its high-end depth in defensemen and wingers, particularly compared to the 2025 draft which was heavier on centers.>International Resurgence: After several lean years for certain nations, the 2026 class features a "roaring comeback" from >Finland and a very strong group of Swedish prospects.>>>153282938The Gavin McKenna Factor: Long considered the de facto #1, Gavin McKenna has recently faced stiff competition for the top spot from Swedish winger Ivar Stenberg, who is on a historic scoring pace in the SHL.
>>153282938any draft where a winger is the top selection is GARBAGE
It’s up
>>153282949Agreed, but at least it's not a college student >also, I am personally considering McKenna out of the draft altogether
>>153282936I'm glad the last place >rags are leading Team USA
>>153282950Smart money should be moved to the sennies. You heard it here first.
Experience islanders hockey (season records):3-0 vs. Lightning (nail biters)3-0 vs. Devils (dominated)3-0 vs. Rangers (dominated)2-0 vs. Vegas (win on the road with a shorthanded OT goal)2-0 vs. Edmonton (win on road with a 1-0 shutout)1-1 vs. Avalanche (won 5-2 on home ice)1-1 vs. Wild1-1 vs. Canucks0-2 vs. Winnipeg (peak islanders hockey)0-2 vs. Nashville (we cannot win)0-3 vs. Bruins (my worst nightmare, DO NOT WANT IN PLAYOFFS)1-3 vs Capitals (we forgot how to play defense)Isles are either looking like the best thing since sliced bread or are actively seeking donations while the puck is on the ice to keep Sorokin/Ritich pads in good shape. This team has absolutely no “middle”. It’s either: win and look incredible doing so, lose and look like horseshit, or skate by with just barely enough offense and get godtier goaltending.
>>153282950This is all wrong. The Wings are taking the Cup.
Betrays her homeland for a jew>many such cases
>>153283011Just because they're from Detroit doesn't mean they are going to steal the cup racist!

>>153283549Said his Mother was a cutie pie, and she's beautiful =3
>>153283549the dude fucked his mom and ghosted her
>>153283549His mom was teasing/groping frat boys in public and Gavin couldn't take it
>McKenna punches you out if you harass his Mom>Bedard lets you run a train on his Mom until the media forces you to be traded away due to the organization's embarassment
