What would Cole Eiserman potentially bring to the table if he was selected 13th overall?
“A dynamic goal scorer in the truest sense, Eiserman possesses an exhilarating ability to cleanly pick his spots in the net and regularly beat defenders and goalies one-on-one. He can score in every way: long-range, mid-range, jam plays, rush plays, quick hands in tight, the one-timer, a lethal catch and release (there isn’t a pass he can’t take and get off). Last year, he showed one of the better shots and sets of hands I’ve seen in a player that age. This year, he chased down Cole Caufield’s all-time NTDP goal-scoring record. He’s one of the younger players in the draft because of his late August birthday as well, which I think sometimes gets lost in evaluations of him because of how scrutinized he’s been over the last two years.”

“As I alluded to earlier, it’s become increasingly difficult to project Eiserman’s translation to the NHL. On one hand, his shot in and of itself is already top-of-an-NHL-lineup quality and he could very well fix the issues he has with his game in a year or two outside of the NHL. On the other, he didn’t really improve those facets of his game all that much since first debuting with the NTDP in 2022-23, and may never reach the point where he has multiple dimensions to his game. I’m bullish on Eiserman, though, and think that he will be a top-six, goal-scoring winger for many, many years. He has legitimate 40-plus goal potential if he develops correctly and gets paired with the right playmaking center.”

After watching your reviews and being realistic, Eiserman would be my top forward pick.
If somehow Silayev or Dickinson were available I would jump at either of the defensemen first. Helenius who is projected to go to the Flyers would also be a solid choice. Do not take Catton, need size up the middle or Parekh with the injuries. Iginla will go to Calgary if management wants to keep their jobs 😁. The other player I like is Yakemchuk if the others are taken. Nygard does seem like a Wild pick but dang, throw the cards in – high risk, high reward on Eiserman…
