1 | | - | | Macklin ****ing Celebrini. |
2 | | - | | Scouts project Demidov to be the highest point scorer of this draft. He will compliment Bedard on RW of L1. |
3 | | - | | Ducks go best player available, in the meantime filling the void from the Drysdale trade. |
4 | | - | | Will eventually replace Werenski on P1. |
5 | | - | | Underrated talent in this draft given his injury this past season. Lindstrom will be an amazing second line center for Montreal. |
7 | | - | | Talented sniper who will play RW on L1 with Timmy and Tkachuk. Fits team needs perfectly. |
8 | | - | | Big defensemen who will jump straight into action. Best defensemen available. Could take Catton or Tij but with Beniers and Wright I see no point. |
9 | | - | | Son of Flames legend as well as being an absolute monster. |
10 | | - | | Eiserman dropped a lot in draft rankings this year. Nonetheless he is a pure goal scorer, perfect to play alongside Hughes in the future. |
11 | | - | | Carter Yakemchuk is a great physical defensemen. Buffalo would pick him as they lack in the RD area. OP defensive future with Dahlin, Power and Byram alongside Carter. |
12 | | - | | Berkly Catton is a great fit for Philly, especially since relations between Torts and their captain is somewhat sour. Best player available. |
13 | | - | | With Faber exploding onto the scene, the Wild are no longer interested in going for a top RD. They pass on Parekh and take Boisvert, a promising center who can play second line minutes in the future. |
14 | | | | The Sharks should be cheering the streets as they land Zayne Parekh. Possibly the most skilled offensive defensemen of this draft. |
15 | | - | | Big winger who will eventually replace Kane. Greentree is going to be a great player for the Wings. |
16 | | - | | Underrated prospect who will flourish in the Blues system. No promising winger prospects leaves Terik to claim the throne for St. Louis. |
17 | | - | | Good center who will be playing at Michigan for the next while. Shot in the dark? |
18 | | - | | The Islanders land a skilled winger prospect who also happens to be the best forward available at this time. |
19 | | - | | How he dropped this much over the years is mind-boggling. He is a monster, though he lacks size. |
20 | | | | Get another Russian to help out Demidov. Still a great player too. |
21 | | - | | Losing Faber is a tough pill to swallow. Picking Hutson is not! Doughty is growing old, that P1 LD is up for grabs. |
22 | | - | | Nashville adds to their lacking defensive prospect pool. Jiricek is a big defensemen who will play a big role in their future. |
23 | | - | | Leafs pick up a shifty player in Mews. He will become their best defensemen once Reilly ages out a bit. |
24 | | | | |
25 | | - | | Andrew drops to Colorado. The Avs are slowly building a decent prospect pool. |
26 | | | | Perhaps Leo will be the answer to Ottawa's defensive issues with Chabot having a mid year. |
27 | | | | Big french forward for les Canadiens. |
28 | | - | | The Canes pick up a Russian playmaker. Nikita has a lot of potential but has a long way to go. |
29 | | | | The Flames will be a force to be reckoned with once Trevor makes it to the Show with Tij. |
30 | | | | Solid right wing who has the potential to be a Marner type player for Philly. |
31 | | - | | The stars will need a defensemen once Tanev leaves and Shuravin is a solid underrated prospect who will make a serious impact once he enters the NHL. |
32 | | - | | Hemming dropped a lot over the past two years. Nonetheless, I still think he will be either a great trade chip that the Rangers can take advantage of, or a solid second to third line forward. He has potential. |
