Mock Draft with Trades

Draft Class: 2024

Description
LOTTERY NOTE -- The first overall pick belongs to San Jose. There is a glitch in capfriendly that moves the second lottery team to 1st overall of a 12-16 team wins the first lottery. That is incorrect. If a 12-16 wins the first lottery, they move up 10 spots and lock into that position and San Jose would lock in the 1st overall pick. Then the second lottery would be determined to the remaining draft slots (#2, #3, and #5-16).

Correct order
1. San Jose
2. Chicago
3. Anaheim
4. Pittsbugh
5. Columbus

Yamemchuk will not drop out of the top 10 and if he does fall that far the Capitals better take him.

He is probably 11-20 range…so I don’t think I have him too far off here. Top-10 would be a reach.

Honestly thats wild to me after watching him play. He checks off the boxes you want, mobile, has size, RHD, good shot, good vision, sure he has some minor needs to work on in his own end but damn he is a good offensive defenseman

Why are Flyers adding a 1st rounder to Frost for Pinto? Don't get me wrong, I love Pinto and his mean streak but Frost (despite all the rumblings of Torts not liking him, has done well in last half of season). This trade could work if OTT and PHL also swap 7 and 12.

Pinto, 7th for Frost, 12, and 29.

Understandable there, but its something he can develop. He can always work on break outs. I just feel like the pros you get with him are better than the cons when comparing him to other high ranking d-prospects

Always depends on team needs. If you made a list of offensive vs defensive, Left vs Right…if there is a run early on offensive RHD and that’s a need, maybe someone grabs him near top-10. But there are alternatives.

Offensive LHD
1. Buium
2. Kiviharju
3. Hutson
4. Sahlin Wallenius

Defensive LHD
1. Dickinson
2. Silayev
3. Shuravin
4. Freij

Offensive RHD
1. Levshunov
2. Parekh
3. Yakemchuk
4. Mews

Defensive RHD
1. Jiricek
2. Emery
3. Elick
4. Roberts

I respect the amount of work you put into this.

Having said that, as a Flyers fan this would be an absolute mega-nightmare fuel outcome (with the exception being the Pinto trade)

I mean credit for putting in a lot of effort, but this is just horrendous for Ottawa.

Trading all that to move up, just to select Parekh is beyond stupid. To start with, in my opinion, there's a really high chance that Parekh would fall to Ottawa at 8 anyway, so there’s no reason to move up to get him. There's a clear top 3 in this draft, but even when the field opens up at 4, I can't see Parekh going ahead of guys like Catton, Buium, Dickinson, Silayev, Lindstrom. At least 3 of those guys will go ahead of Parekh, so Ottawa's essentially a lock to have the chance to draft one of those two RHD studs in Parekh or Yakemchuk. Parekh has a wicked skillset, but I don't think he puts himself head and shoulders above the rest of the crop of guys potentially on the board at 8 enough to warrant a trade up, especially at such a high cost. Now if the top 3 somehow miraculously ran out Celebrini/Demidov/Catton and it was Levshunov on the board at 4, I think it's a very different conversation, but that's just not happening.


The Pinto deal is also brutal. The Sens have put a lot onto developing Pinto, and that effort is starting to bear fruit as he's developing into that top 6 200ft C they desperately need. Staios has spoken many times about how they view him as part of the core, and how they intend on getting him done long term. He spoke end of season about how much he loves being a Sen, his love of this group and how he was hoping he'd have his long term extension in place before the World Championship starts (though this is seeming less than likely). The fans love him, the players love him, even local media loves dealing with the guy. There is simply no appetite in this market for a Pinto trade, at any level. There's a reason all those talking points exclusively come from external markets. It just isn't on the table.

You both nave valid points, I agree with where he is ranked on this board and the creator did a ton of homework, but big RD often go higher than the rankings slot him! He needs to work on his game and round out for sure, could end up the best D and a #1 stud or be a 3P offensive D in the NHL only time will tell. personally boom or bust picks in the top 10 scare me but in this draft a lot of teams will have to gamble risk for reward or pick safe middle pair/ middle 6 guy in the top 10. Not ideal!

Yeah, I agree wholeheartedly. There are some wicked defensive prospects, some of whom definitely grade out higher than Yakemchuk, but the package he brings to the table is undeniable. Can't see him falling further than like...12? At the worst. RHD are treated like unicorns in the NHL, teams just aren't passing up on an RHD with his big frame, who knows how to use that size, and with the obvious talent he has over details. The things that make him special are the things that just can't be taught, any development staff worth their salt can teach him to pick his spots on breakouts or defensive positioning or whatever warts he might have. I'd be very happy with him at 8 for Ottawa, though admittedly part of that is just because I want to hear PxP guys struggling with calling Tkachuk, Ostapchuk and Yakemchuk on the same team
