3Logo of the Anaheim Ducks-Buium would make the three youngest players from NCAA the top three picks. Elite Hockey IQ, sees ice well, skates well to defend...and was the most dangerous offensive dman 5v5 in NCAA (his 35 even strength points were top in NCAA).
4Logo of the Columbus Blue Jackets-Russian wingers have become a bit of a specialty in CBus. Marchenko, Chinakhov, Voronkov, Dolzhenkov, and now Demidov.

7Logo of the Ottawa Senators-Sens throw a wrench into the system and take big, mobile athletic, RHD...headed to (where else) North Dakota. (2024 version of Moritz Seider pick)

10Logo of the New Jersey Devils-No brainer here
11Logo of the Buffalo Sabres-Sabres got enough size on back-end

Emery at 7 would make me sick.

Sick with Joy? He is a good player...with probably less risk in his game than other RD available at that point in draft.

I saw it a little like 2019 draft when Seider #6 shocked everyone.

Emery/Greentree is a good day

I won't lie I love Emery and would love Staios to draft him, but only if he makes it to 26. He had a very very good showing at the U18 tournament but with Eiserman, Dickinson and Lindstrom on the board I wouldn't be able to justify it.

Ekblad is probably not even worth a top 10 pick. That’s a pretty quick no for MTL, we’ll just draft Tij

At #7 it is a jump. But I don’t think he makes it to #26. If I had to bet, he goes in 15-20 range…just when the draft will get interesting after a big drop-off.

In an ideal world, OTT could reposition to get two picks around 9-13 and grab a falling Lindstrom or Eiserman and a guy like Emery.

Boooo!!

This is a mock draft, trades cannot be accepted or declined here.

(Good thing I didn’t show the rest or the trade then)
