Moritz Seider, from the mysterious DEL over in Germany has made quite a name for himself after clinching the league title and now playing for the national German squad in the WC. How high will Seider go in the draft?

I hope your right …
So happy the wings picked him
He’s nhl ready soon and he’s the best defender…defense wise. He’s good with the puck and good positioning. He can be a cornerstone type defender.
Welcome to Motown Seider! We could use you on the back end. Big Right hand defenders are hard to come by.
I don't think Yzerman cares about Craig Button's list or anyone else's list for that matter. He liked what he saw in Seider and planted his flag. I can't wait till round two to see what else Stevie Y has up his sleeve. LGRW
Stevie Y. says "I'll take him at no. 6!" 😁👍👊
Buddy you called it.
This pick was a shock, but now i really like it and have no feelings anymore about them passing on guy like Zegras. I just having a feeling this kid is gonna make Stevie Y decision look good in a few years. Also Seider has an April birthday, so he was playing all season in top Germany mens league as a 17 year old.
6th overall to the red wings, nice prediction
hope you're right on this. If he can be a shut down D like how Yzerman described him and still put up 40 points or so, Id be super happy with this pick down the road.
Looks like we're sippn on some Seider in Hockeytown! I'll happily take a solid play making 2 way D man. Before he's 20 he will be on the Wings roster building the future. Great pick at #6.
The Wings have lots of offense with two 30 goal scorers, plus Mantha and Bertuzzi with 25 and 21 last season. And they will only get better. What they need obviously is more blueliners. I like Green, Daly, Hronek, Dekeyser etc., but Seider is going to be a good addition. I like the pick!
Yzerman has been drinking too much cider.
you called it👍😃🏒
Go Wings
I’ve really warmed up to him after feeling a bit apprehensive about this pick. Can’t wait to see what he does here in Detroit
Welcome to the D
Damn nice call especially a couple months out when you called it but I can see where Steve Yzerman got his highlights and the nerve to take them with the 6th overall pick lol he does look like he plays like a little guy being 6-4 I mean he looks pretty quick nimble now going through everybody else's picks as far as defenseman go I can see where you came up with it and we're Stevie came up with drafting him and taken him as the second defensive man taken he's pretty damn good and he's got good upside and he's a big boy a big rig
Looks like you were right.
This one aged well
"Seider’s best attribute is his hockey sense. It’s high-end. He can anticipate plays, sometimes two steps ahead of his opponents"
"Defensively sound and can be relied upon on the penalty kill because of his great gap control."
"He recognizes his options when playing the puck and rarely makes an unforced error."
Why is the DEL mysterious? It's just the German Elite League.
"mysterious DEL" 😂😂👍🏼 Greetings from Mannheim
red wings boy
Stevie's trying to find a Hedman "style" defenseman for the wings. Big body, good skater, hard to play against, and shore up the back end defensively. wings have some decent dmen with some offensive upside in Hronek, Cholo, Saarijarvi, and potentially Mcisaac . Pair 3 of those guys with Lindstrom and Seider, possibly tuomisto. THe questions marks for me are Seider and Mcisaac because they solid defensively and should def have nhl careers but what's there offensively. Wings D for the future looks balanced with a few offensive minded guys, all good skaters, and some size and grit sprinkled through all 3 pairs. People don't like the pick and that's fine, everyone wants offense but the wings biggest problem is on D and giving up goals. Hopefully the core in Detroit stays put for some time, (71,39,72,59), then add Zadina, Veleno, potentially Berggren and and Grewe. looks like a nice balanced lineup.
You mean the number 1
I dont think he is the second best defenceman in this draft!A handfull of defender are better!
I was very disappointed from his last season. But you have to think about the fact, that he had a really bad shoulder injury and missed the half season. But what he did in the World Championship with Age 18 was great! you watched the germany games ? 😉 Er war einfach Hammer, bis er den bösen Check bekommen hat.
Good call mate
How about 5 months later, He is third on the roster in points for the G.R. Griffins of the AHL, While showing so much maturity he may have Stevie Y thinking about waiting yet another year to name a Captain.
I highly recommend you read the blog. Moritz Seider has been keeping during his stay in Grand Rapids(my home town) It is a small sample of this young mans intelligence. He could easily take the job's of the trash writers here and Detroit.

His first Profesional goal from 11/24/19

I can see Lidstrom qualities in him, not saying he’s gonna be at that type of level but call me crazy. He’s anticipates plays, he’s smooth and has a finesse to his game. I like that he isn’t apprehensive about getting nasty if he has to. A solid pick by the “captain of captains”
The Yzer-Plan……in Stevie we trust. Seider had a GREAT year in Grand Rapids.
He had a great season in Grand Rapids AHL in 19-20. He's probably going to be in Detroit for the 20-21 season. Especially with the AHL season in doubt.
I think soderblom in the 6th round for the Wings is going to be a sleeper, he's going to be really good
hets Better than Bowen Byram!
Correction** The BEST defender in 2019 draft lol. Bowen Byram is nothing compared to Mo.
Shades of a Denis Potvin !
