DRAFT

TEXT-EMBED

Round 1
1. Leon Draisaitl (Florida Panthers from Buffalo Sabres) (Details: He would be a 1C on 24 teams right now, just not his own.).
2. David Pastrnak (Buffalo Sabres) (Details: You could make an argument that he is 1OA, but he's played on a much better team than Leon.).
3. Brayden Point (Edmonton Oilers) (Details: Could be in the 1/2 range, but took 2 extra years of development. Also isn't the 1C on his own team (though, he could be).).
4. Dylan Larkin (Calgary Flames) (Details: Maybe a little underrated. 3rd in total points in his draft class. Plays on an awful team. Next Captain of DET, the 4th in 35 years.).
5. Nikolaj Ehlers (New York Islanders) (Details: Also another underrated guy. Consistent 60+ point player.).
6. William Nylander (Vancouver Canucks) (Details: Really flip flopped between him and Reinhart. To me, he's just a little more dynamic.).
7. Sam Reinhart (Carolina Hurricanes).
8. Aaron Ekblad (Toronto Maple Leafs) (Details: Still the best dman in this draft, just not 1OA.).
9. Viktor Arvidsson (Winnipeg Jets) (Details: Would get a lot more cred if he played more games. Averaging just 55 games per year.).
10. Kevin Fiala (Anaheim Ducks from Ottawa Senators) (Details: In and out of the line up for 6 years, still averaging better than .50PPG.).
11. Nick Schmaltz (Nashville Predators) (Details: CHI got the better end of that trade in my opinion, but Schmaltz is just fine.).
12. Anthony Deangelo (Arizona Coyotes) (Details: If he matured quicker, he could be in the top 5-6.).
13. Kevin Labanc (Washington Capitals) (Details: Like Labanc's game a little more than Vrana, but Vrana has the cup.).
14. Jakub Vrána (Dallas Stars).
15. Robby Fabbri (Detroit Red Wings) (Details: Imagine if he didn't lose all that time to injury. Finally starting to show he has some skills.).
16. Brandon Montour (Columbus Blue Jackets).
17. Alex Tuch (Philadelphia Flyers).
18. Jared McCann (Minnesota Wild) (Details: Getting a little time with Sid and Geno helps with development.).
19. Nick Ritchie (Tampa Bay Lightning).
20. Christian Dvorak (Chicago Blackhawks from San Jose Sharks) (Details: He is who he is. He's a middle 6 C. At this point in the draft, that's decent.).
21. Adrian Kempe (St. Louis Blues).
22. Kasperi Kapanen (Pittsburgh Penguins) (Details: KK lands in the exact same spot.).
23. Danton Heinen (Colorado Avalanche).
24. Travis Sanheim (Vancouver Canucks from Anaheim Ducks).
25. Sam Bennett (Boston Bruins) (Details: Probably develops better if he wasn't drafted in the top 5.).
26. Ryan Donato (Montreal Canadiens).
27. Ondrej Kase (San Jose Sharks from Chicago Blackhawks) (Details: Definitely better than 205. Maybe a little overrated here, but he will play with better players in BOS.).
28. Marcus Pettersson (New York Islanders from New York Rangers).
29. Jake Virtanen (Los Angeles Kings) (Details: Another guy who probably develops better being down in his draft year.).
30. Ivan Barbashev (New Jersey Devils).
