Hijacking this comment to ask, why is he so shocked? I thought players generally had an idea who was interested and what pick they'll be roughly.
Dont they reach out/talk to potential picks?
He said in one of the interviews after he was picked that he had a few last minute meetings with teams in the 24 hours leading up to the draft and none of them were the ducks so he just kind of assumed he’d be going elsewhere.
Not gonna lie, that's where my mind was going too. It feels like Verbeek knows something that the rest of us don't... and my gut instinct is to simply let him cook.
Senecke looks real good and its not like he was supposed to go 25th or something (looking at you Yotes) but it's very hard to believe other forwards wont be better than him like Lindstrom Catton or our very own child Demidov.
I don’t disagree but, you have to think about th etalent on the table if that pick is shopped. Anaheims trying to take the leap they’ve been rebuilding for a couple years now and gotten some good draft talent. Why expend the three pick on that when you could shop one of those other guys you mentioned…idk just doesn’t seem great to me but we’ll see I guess.
Oh no - that was definitely him but it reminds me of the scene in Home Alone 2 where Kevin records himself saying that line and plays it back in slow mo over the phone, to the hotel staff 😅
Amazing clip. Could you post it to /r/AnaheimDucks ? Would be nice to have there, I'm sure the team broadcast will use that a lot when he eventually reaches the club.
Verbeek and Madden from all we can gather (they are fairly secretive) are the kinds to meet a guy once and know he's their guy, they met him a few weeks ago from what I understand so they obviously knew right there he was the guy, not sure I agree but I trust Madden his track record in the top 10 is pretty solid
The fact that you think one of the most respected minds in hockey scouting Martin Madden didn't interview his 3rd overall fucking pick, rather than thinking that simply isn't true, is wildly baffling to me. Imma be real.
I think people forget how damn good the Ducks' scouting can be. By the time you hit the 3rd round of the playoffs, you have more than a few Ducks draft picks playing key roles. Sure, they're on other teams (and asset management can be a topic for another time), but they still got scouted and drafted by the Ducks.
So even though the Ducks went wayyy off the board with this pick, I do have faith based on the team's previous track record.
Yeah. This definitely feels like a pick where we let him stew in the OHL for a bit while the team continues the rebuild, but he was our guy (after Celebrinni) of course. You can take risks like this when you trust your development and scouting and are not banking on this pick changing the trajectory of your franchise.
A lot of personality is lost in this game. Everyone is so stoic and measured. Seeing this kid literally mind blown made my night. Hope he has an amazing career.
I’m just happy about Celebrini and when I saw this kid get so fucking happy I was like yea gods shit ducks! Then I had to throw up for being happy for the ducks
Yeah actually I clipped it and uploaded it for friends in the US (it's an .mkv).

Edit: Actually looking in the thread someone's got it on a streaming service, [link to the post](https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/1dqximy/beckett_sennecke_with_a_great_reaction_to_being/larb169/).
How others treat people they perceive as "help" can usually tell you a lot about their personality. Could be they're too nervous to even think about literally anything, though.
Actually shocked how many of these kids didn’t even look at the lady in the eye or at least say “thank you.” Basic etiquette that should already be a habit at that age.
Hahaha he says “Oh my god. Oh my
God. Holy fuck. Holy fuck.”
I love the pick. Think the kid is going to be a monster in a few years, and this moment being so wholesome and genuine only makes me happier he’s on our team.
One of the cooler reactions to being drafted.
One of the parts of NHL drafts I love more than other sports, moments like this and getting to see players with their family in the stands like this.
Holy shit idk if anyone's seen his Elite Prospects videos but the dude has legit a different play style than anybody I've seen in my 25+ years watching hockey. [It looks like he's playing on different settings than everyone else on the ice.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDStAJVMKJ0)
That’s so funny. I used to say the same thing about Jamie Drysdale. Haven’t seen him play much the past few years, but his first few seasons in Anaheim, I swear he was like flailing his limbs in all directions. I’ve used the flailing arm man comparison with him too. It was absolute chaos watching him skate. Ha.
I'm not sure how stunned I should be by the move at 3:52 but I'm not sure I've ever seen someone go from looking like they're about to blow a tire to deking a guy out of his skates, holy fuck.
OH FUCK, HE’S THAT DUDE!!!! My bff showed me that video when it was posted and I watched it, like, twelve times trying to figure out if his bones are made of elastic or something.
I fucking love this pick now!
he plays EXACTLY like josh ho sang - who was my favourite prospectI ever watched. two products of the GTHL Toronto Marlboros. Hopefully he can make it full time in the show, super exciting playstyle.
Mr Sennecke: basically, the rule is that if they call you, you have to go up to the podium.
Beckett: what?!
Mr Sennecke: you have to go up to the podium
Beckett: but..I’m just here to find out about…the rule.
Mr Sennecke: I just told you about the rule
Beckett:…what?!
Mr Sennecke: they called your name!
Beckett: WHO?!
Mr Sennecke: The Ducks!
Beckett:…what?!
Yes. This way the teams don’t have to pay to fly their groups to the draft and put them up in hotel rooms. However, I think it’s still sort of up in the air as to whether it’ll be online or not?
The cost can't be that much, considering how much revenue the league generates. I think it would be a mistake to make it online only. I know the show can sometimes be cringy, but it makes the occasion feel more important and newsworthy. Having it just read out online like they do at the draft lottery would make it boring and you can't see the players and their family members reactions and post interviews.

Beautiful
*oh my god, oh my god..what the fuck* lol
“Wait what the fuck do with my hands. WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO WITH MY HANDS?! I go up there right? They said my name? You’re sure?”
I think he said holy fuck
But it was like 15 syllables..... At least 10 Damm it.. is this posted twice I got a reddit error....
Reminds me of [this classic](https://youtu.be/4ww6r-R_5_s?si=Dp9jpYEbG8f5CDNm).

Holy fuck. I have never seen that. I laughed so hard. Thank you.

He wasn’t projecting to go 3rd, that’s why he is shocked.
I’m not sure he was even top ten except for one or two late predictions.
He said in one of the interviews after he was picked that he had a few last minute meetings with teams in the 24 hours leading up to the draft and none of them were the ducks so he just kind of assumed he’d be going elsewhere.

This is what it's all about
He is all of us

*Record Scratch* “Yup. That’s me Beckett. You’re probably wondering how I got here. Here’s my story.”
Keanu Reeves from Bill and Ted
Hahahahahahaha this could be the Oh my God! Wow meme lol
Greatest draft reaction ever
I want this guy to be great now. Such a wholesome reaction.
Right up there with Mo Seider
From the player? Yes. But some kid's parents started mackin' on each other in Montreal and that was the best draft reaction.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdkdzGUROJA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdkdzGUROJA)
“OOO-kayyy…”
Good God what an awful-looking kiss. Like two fish bumping against the glass.
Nah Matt Duchene when Hedman was selected before him and he realized he was probably about to be drafted by his childhood team was the best.
[Duchene's reaction](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lh4ISvEZaoM)
I was NOT ready for his voice
Dude was born with a built-in voice modulator
That kid hit puberty at 3 years old, and his voice just got progressively deeper. By 25 that dude will sound like Palpatine.
Me neither
he sounds like the impression every girl makes of a dude talking
He has the male voice equivalent of Valley Girl
lol, I thought “wait, did this kid just rip some nitrous before speaking?” It’s DEEEEEP.
It sounds like when Kevin McAllister had to make his voice deeper when getting a hotel room in New York
This is Peter McAllister - **THE FATHER**
Credit card? **YOU GOT IT**
Reminds me of the first time I heard Elizabeth Holmes' voice. Although in her case, it was likely an act.
"I definitely didn't think this was a possibility" apparently he met with a few teams yesterday, and the Ducks weren't one of them. idk man lol
Replying to top comment. His family's reaction: https://streamin.one/v/3c3b0747
Whoa, his voice does NOT match his face!
This is Peter McCallister - the fatttthhhher.
Ohhhh, gotcha. That makes more sense haha.
Oh no - that was definitely him but it reminds me of the scene in Home Alone 2 where Kevin records himself saying that line and plays it back in slow mo over the phone, to the hotel staff 😅
Whooosh to me lol
We're anicent enough where Home Alone references are too old for the majority of Redditors. Get off my lawn!
😭😭
Oh I’m old enough to know and remember Home Alone haha, it was just never really in my childhood repertoire for whatever reason.
Holy shit lmao. That's prefect
LMAO this is so accurate holy shit
His voice sounds like those voice modulators they used when they interview someone on tv who is trying to hide their identity
Idk how many people watched [delocated](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=92yb9PoAKJY&t=64s&pp=ygUJRGVsY2FvdGVk) but it was the first thing I thought of.
Amazing clip. Could you post it to /r/AnaheimDucks ? Would be nice to have there, I'm sure the team broadcast will use that a lot when he eventually reaches the club.
Posted it there for you: https://old.reddit.com/r/AnaheimDucks/comments/1dqxw5l/beckett_senneckes_family_reacts_to_him_being/
Cheers, thanks.
Even more fun looking at the reactions of the folks around them
Right, I played it quite a few times to check out the reactions
Draft gameplan must’ve been: Wing it
Wild Wing it
Verbeek smashing through a sheet of ice while wearing goalie equipment rn
Betting lines had him rise today
How tf do you make a 2nd overall pick without even interviewing the guy. Edit: 3rd
It was 3rd, so totally understandable.
At that point you're just throwing darts
I assume they interviewed him earlier and made their pick based on that and didn't need to see more.
He said they didn’t interview him yesterday.
Verbeek and Madden from all we can gather (they are fairly secretive) are the kinds to meet a guy once and know he's their guy, they met him a few weeks ago from what I understand so they obviously knew right there he was the guy, not sure I agree but I trust Madden his track record in the top 10 is pretty solid

Bah god that’s Ron Holland’s music
“What the fuck”
WHAT DID THEY DO TO US
“What the fuck is this world”
A lot of personality is lost in this game. Everyone is so stoic and measured. Seeing this kid literally mind blown made my night. Hope he has an amazing career.
I’m just happy about Celebrini and when I saw this kid get so fucking happy I was like yea gods shit ducks! Then I had to throw up for being happy for the ducks
>gods shit ducks! So *that's* where they come from
I meant “good shit ducks!” But I’m leaving it lol
Thanks man. We will bottle up that good will and play lights out next year!
The replay angle on SN that has his parents' initial reaction is fucking great lmao
Do you have a link? Because I would LOVE to see it
Yeah actually I clipped it and uploaded it for friends in the US (it's an .mkv). https://drive.google.com/file/d/17Yld05WNnWtRkL9OZYhOboJfA8FreFvh/view?usp=sharing Edit: Actually looking in the thread someone's got it on a streaming service, [link to the post](https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/1dqximy/beckett_sennecke_with_a_great_reaction_to_being/larb169/).
HHOF reaction. Right to the hall you go
Don't even bother showing up to the pond in August you're going straight to the rafters
"Oh my God. Oh my God. Fuck."
Hahaha I think he says “Holy fuck”
I thought he said, "what the fuck?"
I thought he said "wow this new DLC for Elden Ring is a ton of fun!"
Looked like “What the fuck? Oh my god. What the fuck”
He said thank you to the lady removing his jacket so you know he was raised right. Stoked with this pick
Does it make me a bad person that I was judging each kid on how he treated the jacket lady?
How others treat people they perceive as "help" can usually tell you a lot about their personality. Could be they're too nervous to even think about literally anything, though.
It’s also a freakin Vegas showgirl dolled out to the nines so; not exactly the waiter at ihop.
tij iginla was a little too cavalier having his jacket off/ready imho. lmfao
Actually shocked how many of these kids didn’t even look at the lady in the eye or at least say “thank you.” Basic etiquette that should already be a habit at that age.
My mom has been complaining about it all night.
There was one dude that half pulled his jacket off and made her pull it off of him. Thought that was so weird.
A few of the guys did. The Blues, Kings, and Bruins picks did that.
new reaction gif just dropped
Hahaha he says “Oh my god. Oh my God. Holy fuck. Holy fuck.” I love the pick. Think the kid is going to be a monster in a few years, and this moment being so wholesome and genuine only makes me happier he’s on our team.
His reaction was wholesome. Legit befuddled
Very wholesome moment but wtf lol
Probably won’t top this for this draft. Super happy for him. Hope he works out for Anaheim just for the surprise factor
One of the cooler reactions to being drafted. One of the parts of NHL drafts I love more than other sports, moments like this and getting to see players with their family in the stands like this.
When the teacher announces you got the highest grade on the test
What’s that like?
"Oh my God oh my God holy fuck"
Very cool
all time reaction
When he started taking I thought my stream was glitching…. Sounds like he’s putting his voice through a voice changer demanding ransom lol
TEN THOUSAND KOLA NUTS WRAPPED IN BROWN PAPER
He said thank you to the lady who took his jacket. Nice kid.
My mom’s been commenting on every single pick whether they thank her or not.
That's awesome.
That was so funny 😂 Love this kid!
all-time reaction, kids gonna be a beast
Yeah he’s got swagger if I’ve ever seen it
All time reaction, so genuine ahhh I love it!!
Holy shit idk if anyone's seen his Elite Prospects videos but the dude has legit a different play style than anybody I've seen in my 25+ years watching hockey. [It looks like he's playing on different settings than everyone else on the ice.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDStAJVMKJ0)
The comparison to the flailing arm man is apropos - it's so weird
He moves like gumby lol, jello is also an apt description they used. He's got soap in his veins, so slippery.
That’s so funny. I used to say the same thing about Jamie Drysdale. Haven’t seen him play much the past few years, but his first few seasons in Anaheim, I swear he was like flailing his limbs in all directions. I’ve used the flailing arm man comparison with him too.

Hope this kid is a hall of famer just for this reaction

Wow this dude will be easy to root for.

Welp, I'm a fan of him now
I hope he becomes a big deal so we can rewatch this clip in 10 years and reminisce
Total shock to him
Easily my favourite reaction since Seider
Beckett Sennecke sounds like the name of a Dan Akroyd character.
Don’t know him, but I’m totally rooting for this kid now.
Aw jeez He looks like a puppy of one of those big dog breeds So damned cute
fuck those anaheim jerseys are sick
All time reaction
Seider 2.0
Jerseys go hard af
I want his jersey
I love how they instruct draftees to take off their jacket before going onstage
Kid looked like he was about to faint when he went in for the hug with his dad. Kind of adorable really.
Bro said oh fuck,I dont think anyone knew this would happen
Ducks fly together
Seems like a good kid. Hope he turns out to be a stud. Good for the Ducks.
The reverse Shane Wright
i thought they said they were doing the draft online from now on?
Next year. Drafts are planned about a year in advance, so they can't really just shut down one that was planned for already.
Why's it going online, to save money? In person makes it more special for the players being drafted.
Yes. This way the teams don’t have to pay to fly their groups to the draft and put them up in hotel rooms. However, I think it’s still sort of up in the air as to whether it’ll be online or not?
The cost can't be that much, considering how much revenue the league generates. I think it would be a mistake to make it online only. I know the show can sometimes be cringy, but it makes the occasion feel more important and newsworthy. Having it just read out online like they do at the draft lottery would make it boring and you can't see the players and their family members reactions and post interviews.
It felt excruciatingly dull being online during COVID and I was hyped since it was Seattle’s first draft.
This kind of thing is why I love sports. Well. Some sports.
Such a better broadcast than ESPN
Best reaction so far
"What the ffffuck" - Beckett Sennecke
He's got a cartoon character voice
Now he has to learn the knuckle puck. That's his signature move from now on. QUACK..QUACK....QUACK...
I can't stop watching this it's just so fucking pure.
Bricks were indeed shat.
If nothing else congrats to this kid for getting to live in Anaheim with money. What a fantastic reaction
Can’t wait to watch him play in NHL!
Is the kid good? Where was he projected to be drafted?
[Can't help but be reminded of *Flying* by Stan Rogers.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ylt_c7LSqeE)
I'm old or he is but I don't even recognize Niedermeyer anymore.
Where was this kid projected to go in the draft? I don't recall hearing his name at all.
Comments didn't say, why is this surprising? Sorry don't follow hockey
He was projected to be like 7th or 8th
Was surprised Godot showed up so early.
I know he’s gonna make a hell of a player
That's a kid that literally just had his dream come true in ways he never thought. Good luck
This will be used for commercials for next year’s draft for sure.
This is the perfect reaction
This also belongs in r/wholesome and r/MadeMeSmile. Such a great reaction. How proud his family was is beautiful.
Lol, so cute. Hope the kid has a great career!
