1 | | - | | 1. Detroit - In a perfect world Detroit finally gets their number one pick. Already having the blossoming Mo Seider, they have the freedom to take the Rising star in Owen power |
2 | | - | | Draft Pick Forfeited2. Los Angeles Kings- The Kings have all the offense they need at forward, this draft gives them the chance to take a premier defensemen, or trade down and grab multiple dmen in the first round |
3 | | - | | 3. Anaheim Ducks-The ducks already have a good NHL ready d core, you add more offense to Zegras he's gonna lead them to the promise land sooner than later |
4 | | - | | 4. Seattle- The Kraken will most likely pick around 4-6 as Vegas did, I think if they end up in this spot they don't pass up the elite rightshot dman to build a team around |
5 | | - | | 5. Ottawa Senators-The sens I believe are as loaded as the kings, but they are the more all around team. With that being said they can afford to take aisk and draft a goalie at five even as a reach. |
6 | | - | | 6.San Jose Sharks- Beniers stock is going to continue to rise as the year goes on but the two way center will be one that gives the sharks the ability to add wingers to his side and give them a top six center |
7 | | - | | 7.New Jersey-Baby Brother Joins older, as the youngest Hughes fills up already loaded prospect pool defense wise. |
8 | | - | | 8. Chicago- Johnson becomes the third wolverine selected and they get their number two behind Kirby as Toews career winds down. Also could see them taking a dman or Raty with this pick |
9 | | - | | 9. Minnesota Wild- The prince that was promised. They lose one finish center they gain a new one, and start to build a very good forward group going forward |
10 | | - | | 10. Florida Panthers- They get Aaron Ekblad some much needed help. |
11 | | - | | 11. Arizona Coyotes- The Coyotes need to find a true elite center. Lucius is that guy for them, they need guys to produce down the middle to give their wingers better scoring chances. |
12 | | - | | 12. Nashville Predators- They have all the defense in the world. They have an elite goalie in Askarov. Give Tomasino help on the wing and they finally produce sone elite offense. |
13 | | - | | 13. Buffalo Sabres- The Sabres fall into the weird spot of not need to much more help on the front end, and not having a goalie worthy of this pick. With the top end dmen gone they settle for the still solid Lambos. |
14 | | - | | 14. New York Rangers- What more do they need at this point. This is team that has the shaping to be very elite very soon. With that being said center could use some help and they get a guy who could go super early or could fall based on how the chips lay |
15 | | - | | 15. Winnepeg- With the rumors of Laine leaving they look to sure up the wingers |
16 | | - | | 16 Montreal- Already loaded defensively, this team barely misses the playoffs and add a center because they can |
