hey it's Manny from the Bruins Benders
0:05
podcast morning is with Manny good
0:07
morning all and the Bruins are back in
0:09
the first round of the 2024 NHL draft
0:12
they do get the 25th pick back after
0:15
trading it for Tyler bzi they have it
0:17
back now they're back in the first round
0:19
desperately need another really good
0:22
Prospect and there's some people out
0:24
there although it's a rather thin draft
0:27
after the first eight or 10 picks but
0:29
there may some meat on the bone there at
0:32
25 and here's the first candidate which
0:34
could be Sasha boyert he's ranked 20 in
0:37
the inside the rink.com rankings of
0:39
draft pick prospects boyb is boyb is a
0:43
natural goal scorer shows his abilities
0:45
to score both from a distance and from
0:47
right around the blue paint he's also
0:49
known for his great passing abilities
0:52
and during the 23 24 season with the
0:55
Lumberjacks of the U USHL he put up 68
0:59
points points in 61 games 36 goals 32
1:03
assists so the Bruins could use some
1:05
scoring particularly in that Prospect
1:07
group Boyer could be a guy who could
1:10
slip to them potentially at 25 uh next
1:13
up on the list number 32 on the inside
1:15
of the Inc rankings Cole Bordan and he
1:18
is in the OHL with a Barry Colts 28
1:21
goals 34 assists for 62 points in 67
1:25
games and there is nothing really Elite
1:27
about bwi's game but however he does
1:30
everything well and maybe a sleeper in
1:32
the draft he's a player who resembles
1:33
the play of a Boston Bruins Legend dare
1:36
we say Patrice berson a talented player
1:39
200 foot game good work ethic good solid
1:42
kid so maybe bdan is there for Boston at
1:46
25 next candidate how about number 34 on
1:50
the draft rankings this is a guy I
1:53
really like from what I read Jet
1:54
luchenko he replaced Matt ptra
1:58
essentially with the G stor of the ol
2:01
with 20 goals and 54 assists for 74
2:04
points he's only 17 years old 511 183
2:08
he's a center and he's an elite NHL
2:11
Prospect who's climbing the charts may
2:13
not even be there at 25 frankly but he
2:16
does have a really good high hockey
2:19
sense and IQ and excellent playmaking
2:23
skill next guy on the list number 37 in
2:26
the inside the rank rankings Dean Lono
2:31
209 he played with the triaa team the
2:35
under 18 St Andrews College he decided
2:38
to go prep instead of going onto the ol
2:42
and he had 67 goal 61 goals and 66
2:45
assists for 127 points in just 56 games
2:50
he's an enormous kid on the ice but has
2:53
excellent hockey offensive skill and
2:56
could be a sleeper in the draft and a
2:58
real project for for Boston and then
3:01
finally a little bit of a sleeper pick
3:03
down the list 47 is marrick vaner but
3:06
but keep an eye on this kid because he
3:08
has some of what the Bruins like he sort
3:11
of has a an all sort of encompassing
3:14
skill set uh he doesn't have anything
3:17
real elite but he does have some
3:18
offensive skill that's developing and a
3:21
goal scoring ability as well he had 36
3:23
goals 46 assists for 82 points for
3:26
Branford Bulldogs of the OHL he's 6 foot
3:30
165 so still filling out a left wing
3:33
with a left shot so vaner could be a guy
3:36
they dig a little bit deeper down the
3:38
list and maybe an offthe chart kind of
3:41
pick for Boston which they've done in
3:43
the past so the Bruins draft is coming
3:45
up and it's coming up Friday night and
3:48
they will be drafting in the first round
3:50
have a great day everybody and go Bruins
