Trades didn't save. Here they are:

(NY Islanders trades down the 11th pick to Jets for 17th pick and Kristian Vesalainen}

{San Jose trades down the 13th pick to Los Angeles for 19th pick and Brock Faber}

Ive been trying to keep up with the draft and i found it interesting how different Central Scoutings rankings were then the consensus around. Yours is a little closer to the consensus, a couple stick out (Robertson, Nelson etc.) but its been hard for me to really grasp at the moment where certain players should be. Thanks for doing these though its always fun to see everybody's perspective!

Nelson will definitely not go this high, but the Flyers need defense.

as a sharks fan i would like that deal! but would LAK give up a good prospect just to move up 5-6 places?
but sharks won’t pick a LHD they will look for the next best C here if they get the RD from LAK

Based on my research, Faber is one of the Kings low-end prospects. He doesn't really have as high of a ceiling compared to their other prospects.

Also I was considering picking a C, but Dahlen is still young and beginning to thrive in a top six role. I don't watch many Sharks games so there may be something I'm missing.

we have Hertl who should be resigned any day now and couture and Bordeleau but after them it gets weak af far as depth, Dahlin and Eklund can both play C but sharks prefer to draft C and turn them to the wings as needed.

That could happen, but the Ducks still have McTavish, Steel, Jones, Zegras, Terry, and Lundestrom as young players. Defense they only have Larsson and Drysdale.

Kinda hoping Ty Nelson falls a bit, tbh. Jiricek would be a dream situation, but I can't imagine we're anywhere close to where he gets picked.

100%. It wouldn't blow my mind if he ended up inside the top 5. That being said, I really like him.

Have to disagree. Don't see him being the best choice there. Here I'd take McGroarty, Lekkerimäki, Chesley, Östlund, Mateychuk, Mesar, Kasper, Trikozov ahead of Miroshnichenko.

I think Nelson would be there at 16. I see Casey, Jiricek, Nemec and Mateychuk ahead of him.

Steel looks like he won't have a major role at the NHL level if any. Jones will probably remain a good bottom 6 forward. So I wouldn't put those two into the same category as the others you mentioned. Prospects like Tracey, Perreault and Pastujov should be int hat category. Larsson is an AHLer. Benoit, Mahura >. And Thrun, LaCombe, Zellweger and Moore all have NHL upside.

Ok, I clearly need to do better research cause I've never heard of half the prospects you mentioned. In that case the Ducks would need a forward then.

I think they should go BPA no matter what. They have good prospects and good depth at all positions.
