  1. That description of Eliasson reminds me of a guy named Chara back in the day. Nobody expected big Z to be anything but a goon

  2. OUR DRAFT THEME

    Well the draft is over and it was a pretty impressive environment at "The Sphere" in Las Vegas.

    It's safe to say that Steve Staios "reaped what he sowed" in this draft as Sens scouts did their due diligence in researching these prospects…

    So based on the above information our theme is….

    DON'T SPHERE THE REAPER!!!

    Blue Oyster Cult fans will completely understand….

  3. Not impressed with our draft. I love Yakemchuk but they could have traded down and added a pick and still have gotten him five spots later. Eliasson was a reach in the 2nd and is too much of a project for that high of a pick and again they could have traded down and added another pick and still have gotten him. The other players are intriguing but the chances of making an impact in the NHL when you are a 4th rounder are pretty slim. The Senators need to draft and develop Goalies and they didn't even draft one. Ottawa does NOT know how to draft or how to work the draft board…they just don't. Cheers from Ottawa🍁

  4. I posted this rant on another video, and I’m gonna copy and paste it here:

    I don’t dislike any of today’s picks on their own, but when you look at them as a collective, I’m a little underwhelmed. We added two more big LD, and THREE more big LW. We’ve already got lots of that. Not a lot of variety in todays picks.

    Feels like the scouting staff has the same strategy it had under Dorion – draft physically large guys that shoot left, and pay no attention at all to any other attributes.

    I think capfriendly is still up until the first. Go look at how many left shot wingers and D we have, and compare them to how many right shot wingers and D we have. Then look up out draft history over the last couple years (the unsigned prospects not yet on capfriendly). And the disparity in the second group is even larger.

    D men drafted in the last three years
    2022 LD Nordberg
    2022 LD Hamara
    2022 LD Donovan
    2022 LD Wallberg
    2023 RD Stanley
    2023 LD Andonovski
    2024 RD Yakemchuk
    2024 LD Eliasson
    2024 LD Wallenius

    7 LD, 2 RD. And that’s just the guys who have not yet signed ELCs. Our NHL guys are just as bad, our AHL guys slightly better.

    I’m not gonna type out all the names for the wingers, but it’s the same thing. I’m just concerned this club has a very lopsided prospect pool, as it keeps drafting the same two guys over and over, especially in the later rounds. I get going for BPA, but that becomes less relevant in the later rounds. You should also consider the importance of having different types of weapons in your arsenal. Plus it effects playing time when you have 100 LW power forwards, and not enough RW to balance the lines. Then you’re constantly forcing guys to play on their off side. Some guys like that. But others don’t. You can’t expect all these guys to adapt their game to the opposite wing.

    When’s the last time we took a swing on a fast, skilled player? We’re gonna be the slowest team in the league if all we draft are big grunts. We need to have some variety in our prospect pool.

    Just my 2 cents

  5. All the Eliasson comments are hilarious, "Ogre", "Wielder of the Stick of Destruction", "More Crosschecks than Puck Touches"

  6. Gabriel Eliasson sounds like the Bruno Caboclo of the Ottawa Senators. He's still 2 years from being 2 years away….

  7. Eliasson in the 2nd wouldnt be a problem…..if the Sens had a top 5 prospect pool.
    When your prospect pool is 31st, pick players that have more than a 10% chance to play games for god sakes
    By the time he plays his first game, Sanderson will be done this 8 year contract

  8. I was waiting for this day since November. What a let down. Everyone I liked went to the flames or wild

  9. I’ve been loving all your daily videos since I found your page a couple weeks ago. Huge sens fan here but thanks for making these videos for the fans 🙏🏻
