Pretty similar to mine though I had Ekblad higher than Hughes. The rest is exactly the same

Dahlin over Lafreniere for me, but that's probably my bias.

I think D is more important than Left wing and Dahlin being a #1 D at the age of 20 and having 2 years in the league under his belt as well as being second all time in scoring for NHL Defensmen when they are teens.

When has Dahlin been a #1 D? He's never played big minutes and he plays against sheltered competition. He's only been a basically 3rd pairing D so far.

Why does everyone want Lafrieniere down, he's clearly the 4th best of the last 10 in terms of ceiling, maybe even higher but all the comments say he's 6th or even 7th

The name of this AGM is Ranking 1st overall picks, Dahlin, Hughes, Lafreniere have amazing potential but they should'nt be ranked over player who played better than them during the season. So I won't consider potential, but instead how've they played.

I think Lafrienere will be a stud, but he hasn't played a single game, he shouldn't be ranked over some talented players

No he won’t Ristolainen is always going to be the number 1 D. Krueger probably won’t take the handcuffs off Dahlin.

He played in a bigger role with Housley as the coach he would actually let him rush the puck in without getting benched.
