[B/R Open Ice] The entire top 4 of the 2014 NHL Draft are in the 2024 Stanley Cup Final, but what if we re-drafted the top 10 from that year? 🤔

1. Link to the tweet since I don’t know how to do it on card version: [https://x.com/BR_OpenIce/status/1798452512242209213](https://x.com/BR_OpenIce/status/1798452512242209213)

2. I’d take Sorokin over Demko tbh

   Also, I’d probably take Shesty over Reinhart and Nylander.

3. Nylander isn’t a center

4. Gotta go Shesterkin 4th over Nylander and Reinhart even though I love Sam. Also I think Aaron Ekblad is still worth a top 10 pick. He’s had a fantastic career.

5. Anyone else take way too long trying to compare each list?

6. Don’t you dare take our noodly lord from us

7. Please as an unbiased islanders fan for the love of god can we redraft that year’s first round

8. Demko completely offsets Vitanen.

9. Oh cool In this scenario we get willy and Pasta

10. Igor goes 4th ovr no matter what maybe even as high as second. Also taking Toews over Reinhart

11. Ehlers still goes at 9 to the Jets.

12. The Ekblad disrespect is crazy

13. What was the original?

14. Putting everything else aside, Toews over Larkin is ridiculous.

    Sincerely,

    A Red Wings fan

15. I’m taking Sorokin over Demko any day of the week.

16. My dude, you would absolutely kill it in the Time Machine “be a GM mode” for the EA franchise.

    Wait til you see what you can trade current players for peanuts on the dollar.

17. Point, nylander and Reinhart over shesterkin is absolutely insane to me. Do they realize just how hard it is to have a real honest to god franchise goalie and how integral that is to team success, especially Igor shesterkin of all goalies who has literally carried the rangers through the playoffs. You can not same the same about the three players listed above him

18. Jesus, that was a great draft year!

19. Pretty crazy that we busted on our first round pick and still got two top ten players in this redraft.

20. Igor goes 4th and Larkin goes higher

21. People always seem to confuse drafting a player for their entire body of work instead of just saying “well x is better in 2024”.

22. Pasta isn’t in the finals .

23. Why did you post the same pic twice. Also Nylander above Reinhart is certainly a choice when it’s tie

24. Am I crazy for wanting Igor 1st overall? If you know what he turns out to be I would take him 1st overall..

25. I’d put Igor at 3.

26. Crazy draft for goalies

27. We’re 1000% taking Igor at 4 over Nylander with hindsight.

    Our goalies that season were Ortio, Ramo, MacDonald and Berra. It was a dark time.
