Lottery winners
1. Seattle Kraken
2. Arizona Coyotes
Round 1
1. Shane Wright (Seattle Kraken) (Details: Wright and Beniers is a real solid foundation to build your team with).
2. Logan Cooley (Arizona Coyotes) (Details: Not a bad consolation prize, really exciting player, more flashy than Wright but not as complete).
3. Juraj Slafkovsky (Montreal Canadiens) (Details: Has the upside to be a really unique and impactful player in the NHL, the type of player I think will be a good linemate for Suzuki one day if he reaches that ceiling).
4. Matthew Savoie (Buffalo Sabres) (Details: Has a lot of his points on the powerplay but still an exciting offensive player from what I've seen, Buffalo could use someone like him).
5. Simon Nemec (Philadelphia Flyers) (Details: I have not watched much Nemec or Jirichek but I feel like they will be the next 2 I just don't know the order).
6. David Jiricek (New Jersey Devils) (Details: See the description I wrote for Nemec, the devils feel like a good fit for one of the 2 defencemen as well as Philly).
7. Joakim Kemell (Ottawa Senators) (Details: Scored at an insane rate earlier in the season in the top Finnish league, has come back down to earth lately but is still a prospect I think someone will take in the top 10 and Ottawa feels like a good fit).
8. Brad Lambert (Columbus Blue Jackets from Chicago Blackhawks) (Details: I have no idea what to think of Lambert since his Liga production is so bad (but I read that he's actually playing quite well just they can't score) but he also had an incredible start to the world juniors and looked like the prospect many expected to see, plus Jarmo is Finnish and I expect will have a good finger on the pulse with Finnish prospects, could be a steal idk I'm not a scout why are you still reading).
9. Frank Nazar (New York Islanders) (Details: I know nothing about this man, he's scoring at a nice pace though and Nazar sounds like razor and Lou likes to make guys shave, yeah sure why not).
10. Danila Yurov (Detroit Red Wings) (Details: I never saw Yurov play but I heard he's not getting any chances to play in the KHL with good ice time but is also just way too good for the Russian junior league so he's just stuck on the bench).
11. Jonathan Lekkerimäki (San Jose Sharks) (Details: I read that he is playing with Eklund a little bit so I put him here, apparently has one of the best shots in the draft).
12. Denton Mateychuk (Columbus Blue Jackets) (Details: Scoring a lot of points in the WHL, seems to be high on other rankings, they took an RD in Ceuelemans last draft so maybe they want a partner).
13. Conor Geekie (Winnipeg Jets) (Details: He's big, plays for Winnipeg in the WHL, he's big and he's big).
14. Filip Mesar (Vancouver Canucks) (Details: I'm done writing now, I've only seen a handful of the guys below play).
15. Isaac Howard (Anaheim Ducks).
16. Gleb Trikozov (Dallas Stars).
17. Marco Kasper (Buffalo Sabres from Vegas Golden Knights).
18. Seamus Casey (Edmonton Oilers).
19. Ryan Chesley (Nashville Predators).
20. Ivan Miroshnichenko (Los Angeles Kings) (Details: Kings have a very deep prospect pool and can afford to take a risk on someone with very unfortunate health circumstances).
21. Jack Hughes (Washington Capitals).
22. Rutger McGroarty (Minnesota Wild).
23. Noah Östlund (Boston Bruins).
24. Liam Öhgren (St. Louis Blues).
25. Alexander Perevalov (Montreal Canadiens from Calgary Flames).
26. Pavel Mintyukov (New York Rangers).
27. Elias Salomonsson (Toronto Maple Leafs).
28. Ty Nelson (Pittsburgh Penguins).
29. Tristan Luneau (Tampa Bay Lightning).
30. Jimmy Snuggerud (Buffalo Sabres from Florida Panthers).
31. Filip Bystedt (Arizona Coyotes from Carolina Hurricanes).
32. Lian Bichsel (Arizona Coyotes from Colorado Avalanche).
