One week removed from the NHL Draft and still no one really thinks the decentralized draft was a good idea. Frankly, it was cringe at times.
Join Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico for a quick look back at the draft and what went right and how to fix the things that went wrong. Can Vegas just host the draft every year? Maybe Montreal should? What do you think as a fan of the NHL and the Montreal Canadiens?

Keep up the great work with this channel. Hope the subs keep piling up!
I agree with Marco, the New York Islanders had a fantastic draft in my opinion. Nashville did well getting a stud center in Brady Martin, an excellent transition defenceman in Cameron Reid and a player who can become a good sniper in Ryker Lee. They later picks were interesting too. I think Seattle were also not too bad. Jake O'Brien is very talented, and they got some solid stay at home defencemen in Fiddler, Reynolds, Agafonov and Annborn.
The draft at The Sphere was amazing
I truly believe that had the Four Nations event started anywhere else, it would have flopped.
Keep up the good work Shaun. You guys are my go to gor habs news and feedback.
this draft was awful.
I've been watching the draft for 35 years and this was the quietest most subdued draft ever. They brought out all these celebrities and every time you could literally hear a pin drop. And when the players were drafted they aren't greeted by the team, they're greeted by Batman. Their picture is taken with Betman. That's not how they want their draft photo taken. That's was terrible. Then they have go into this room and talk to the team via video feed. Very lame.
Hasn't played a game yet for Montreal, can we pump the brakes on Dobson a bit? When he's -15 will the love still be there?
*Please note that Fabbro and Provorov signed new deals with Columbus after this was recorded*
im montreal all the way but vegas is going to be hard to beat for a draft home , just my 10 cents worth . G H G
I believe that the Isles won the draft.
But MTL won the trades.
Maybe FLA won the FAs by keeping the team.
marco is whiney as hell
The 18 year old draft is a crap shoot. Bob McKenzie used to put a chart on screen showing after the top 10 picks the odds a player becomes a star drop significantly. After 15 it craters. There will always be picks like Bergeron and Hutson who are outliers but throwing darts at a corkboard of names would do as well as any scout. Time to go back to the 20 year old rule, there are much more clear signs if they are going to make it, at a skilled position at least. Big plodding defense will always be valuable as long as the rule book is ignored come playoff time.
Without question – the absolute worst draft I've ever witnessed – honestly I unable to watch more than an hour. Boring boring boring boring boring ….
