ROUND 1TEAMORIGINALPLAYERDETAILS
1Logo of the Buffalo Sabres-Though I do not believe Owen Power to be the best player in this draft class, Buffalo needs Defense, and he is undoubtedly the best defenseman in this draft class
2Logo of the Seattle Kraken-I believe that Matthew Beniers is the best player in this draft class, he is the perfect fit for a team like Seattle, you always want to start off a new franchise with your star centerman and that is what Matthew Beniers will be to the Kraken
3Logo of the Anaheim Ducks-The Ducks need an Elite winger to grow with Trevor Zegras, at this spot I usually have them going with William Eklund but I figured I’d mix it up a bit and go with Dylan Guenther
4Logo of the New Jersey Devils-I don’t think New Jersey really has to think about this, I think Brandt Clarke will make a case to be that 4th pick but it will end up being Luke Hughes, he satisfies their need of Defense, he also has great chemistry with his brother Jack
5Logo of the Columbus Blue Jackets-With Seth Jones wanting out of Columbus, I think it’s quite obvious they will take Brandt Clarke to hopefully fill in for him, Clarke is a great offensive defenseman but could definitely work on his defensive game
6Logo of the Detroit Red Wings-The Red Wings are in need of an Elite center prospect that can play behind Dylan Larkin, of the available guys, William Eklund is the best that will project as a Center in the NHL
7Logo of the San Jose Sharks-The Sharks desperately need good Goaltending, with their current starter being Josef Korenar they are in an extreme need, Jesper Wallstedt is projected to be a Franchise goaltender so this will finally fix their goalie issue
8Logo of the Los Angeles Kings-The LA Kings have an amazing prospect pool, mainly consisting of forwards, it’s time they get that #1 defensive prospect and that will be Simon Edvinsson
9Logo of the Vancouver Canucks-Vancouver is in need of Defense, but there are no defensive prospects that are justifiable to take at pick 9 so I think the Canucks take the top forward available, that being Vancouver born Kent Johnson
10Logo of the Ottawa Senators-Ottawa has a very strong prospect pool, so they will take just the best player available, that is definitely Mason McTavish
11Logo of the Arizona Coyotes-
Draft Pick Forfeited
12Logo of the Chicago Blackhawks-The Blackhawks are in need of secondary scoring in my opinion, i have them taking arguably the best goal-scorer of the draft, Chaz Lucius
13Logo of the Calgary Flames-in my opinion Calgary goes after the best player available, and i think that is Cole Sillinger
14Logo of the Philadelphia Flyers-The Philadelphia Flyers are a good team that just had a bad season, I think that the team is developed enough to take a jump on a player, I have them taking my favourite prospect in the draft class, Matthew Coronato
15Logo of the Dallas Stars-I think the Stars could go many different directions with this pick, but I think they stick with the safe pick in Fabian Lysell
16Logo of the New York Rangers-The Rangers have one of the best prospect pools in the NHL, their only weakness is centers, so i have them going with Aatu Raty, Raty is really a risk/reward pick, there is still a chance he fulfills his potential from last season, if he does he will be quite a steal
17Logo of the St. Louis Blues-With Vladimir Tarasenko requesting a trade, the Blues should draft a RW to replace him, why not stick with the Russians and go with Nikita Chibrikov
18Logo of the Winnipeg Jets-Winnipeg needs defense, the best defenseman available in my opinion is Carson Lambos
19Logo of the Nashville Predators-Nashville could use some more center prospects, i have them taking Fedor Svechkov
20Logo of the Edmonton Oilers-Edmonton could go a few different ways with this pick, I think they take a player right from their backyard, that being Sebastian Cossa, who will hopefully be their Elite Goalie of the future
21Logo of the Boston Bruins-I think Boston could go very many different directions with this pick but I think they will go with the safe pick, that being Brennan Othmann
22Logo of the Minnesota Wild-with the chance of Minnesota going after Jack Eichel, i think they just go after the best player available instead of a canter, that is Corson Ceulemans
23Logo of the Detroit Red WingsLogo of the Washington Capitalsthe Wings could go anywhere with this pick but i think they will go with Sasha Pastujov, i think he is so good, i am a really big fan of him
24Logo of the Florida Panthers-i think the Panthers should go for a winger, i think its a pretty easy pick with Xavier Bourgault
25Logo of the Columbus Blue JacketsLogo of the Toronto Maple LeafsColumbus is in extreme need of centers, in this scenario i have them taking Zach Bolduc
26Logo of the Minnesota WildLogo of the Pittsburgh PenguinsMinnesota does still need centermen, so i think they gotta go with Francesco Pinelli
27Logo of the Carolina Hurricanes-Carolina goes with an underrated guy, Simon Robertsson
28Logo of the Colorado Avalanche-Colorado just goes after the best player available, i think that is Logan Stankoven
29Logo of the New Jersey DevilsLogo of the New York Islandershere the Devils probably just take the best player available and i think that is Samu Tuomaala
30Logo of the Vegas Golden Knights-i think Vegas just goes for best player available, that is probably Stanislav Svozil
31Logo of the Montreal Canadiens-Montreal probably goes after a defenseman with the stuff that came out about Shea Weber possibly not playing again in the NHL, i think they probably go after one of my favourite players in this draft class, thet being Scott Morrow
32Logo of the Columbus Blue JacketsLogo of the Tampa Bay LightningColumbus probably just goes after BPA here, that is either Olausson or Rosen, in this case i have them taking Isak Rosen

umm. Korenar was traded yesterday. The sharks never pick goalies in the 1st, I doubt they start this year.
