1 | | - | | Clear cut # 1 easy pick and should be a franchise player |
2 | | - | | I believe the kings would go off the board a bit with this pick.They have plenty of young centres in there system(Thomas and turcotte to name a few)what there team is really lacking is an explosive offensiveplayer who is a threat everytime they touch the ice. |
3 | | - | | Already have Hughes and Hischier at centre.They take the best defenceman in the draft |
4 | | - | | Ottawa is left with an easy choice at this spot. Either Stützle or Byfield. I like Stützle a tad more. |
5 | | - | | Besides #1,this is probably the easiest pick in the whole draft. Ducks would have the centre spot locked down with zegras and now byfield |
6 | | | | Sens add the best goalie prospect since Carey Price. |
7 | | - | | Rangers add another dynamic forward. Perfetti looks to be a high level goal scorer at the nhl level. |
8 | | - | | Habs with their deep prospect pool can afford to go best available, in this case Rossi is the pick. |
9 | | - | | Holtz would add a very skilled winger to fit in with the core group of forwards in buffalo. They address a heavy need. |
10 | | - | | Smart two way player with strong playmakig abilities added in Nashville |
11 | | - | | With a lack of blue line prospects, the wild pickup a big, rangy dman who has put up solid offensive numbers. |
12 | | - | | Blackhawks arereally in a spot where they can just go best player available, Holloway is their guy at 12 |
13 | | - | | Jets have a lack of depth for forwards in their prospect pool (Vesalainen being the only notable player) the jets have had success with Finnish players so they go with the strong two way centre in hopes he can shore up the 2C spot in te future |
14 | | - | | After making trades that has gotten rid of prospects, they are left with a thin prosect pool. They go mercer here to build back up |
15 | | | | After going defence earlier in the draft the devils go with a offensively gifted winger in Jack Quinn. |
16 | | - | | Flames add a big bodied dman as they’re getting older at the position |
17 | | | | Canes add a grindy/skilled center |
18 | | - | | Oilers add depthin a heavy position of need with the strong skating Gunler |
19 | | | | The lighthing are another team that can afford to go best available, the talented center is there pick |
20 | | - | | Stars pick up a responsible winger with some offensive upside. |
21 | | - | | Flyers add a possible ghostr replacement on the blueline. |
22 | | - | | Canes go with a goalscoring winger with there pick |
23 | | - | | Panthers get a solid,mature two way dman |
24 | | - | | Jackets add a fast skating centreman |
25 | | - | | Avs go best available with the big bodied dman |
26 | | - | | Lightning go with a forward earlier, they go with a defencman here |
27 | | - | | Isles add a defensive defenceman |
28 | | - | | Good all around winger added for Pittsburgh |
29 | | - | | Blues add a very promising dman late who needs development |
30 | | - | | Interesting wing prospect goes to Boston |
31 | | - | | Best available |
