ROUND 1TEAMORIGINALPLAYERDETAILS
1Logo of the Montreal Canadiens-Several players (Cooley, Slafkovsky, Jiricek, Nemec) are all playing better than him. Theres a low chance that Wright gets passed over by Montreal.
2Logo of the New Jersey Devils-I probably shouldn't be including this player on this list, mostly because teams should have learnt their lesson after Caufield. If teams haven't learned their lesson, Savoie falls because of the size.
3Logo of the Arizona Coyotes-He checks all the boxes to be a top 5 pick, maybe even top 3. But teams will be scared of his point production this year. He's No. 18 on my rankings.
4Logo of the Seattle Kraken-The Russian factor combined with the fact that he was scoreless in the KHL this year. Though the lack of scoring shouldn't be an issue as he only played 5 minutes per game and its hard to put up so many points with that much ice time.
5Logo of the Philadelphia Flyers-I don't want this player to fall any lower than 10th, but he could fall because of the injury issues he had. But when Jiricek is healthy, he plays like a top 2 pick in the draft.
6Logo of the Columbus Blue JacketsLogo of the Chicago BlackhawksCurrently projected to go at 2nd overall (which is where I have him currently), but the skating is a weakness, and typically skating is a very important aspect in hockey.
7Logo of the Ottawa Senators-The skating can be a big issue, and also despite his NHL-ready frame Geekie tends to lose his balance way too often.
8Logo of the Detroit Red Wings-Offensive consistency this season
9Logo of the Buffalo Sabres-Once again as mentioned in the Savoie explanation, teams should have learnt their lesson after Caufield. But Nazar's lack of size and strength could make him a potential faller.
10Logo of the Anaheim Ducks-The effort away from the puck is a big issue.
11Logo of the San Jose Sharks-Currently have him projected as a mid-first rounder, but his offensive upside could make him a potential faller.
12Logo of the Columbus Blue Jackets-Wasn't sure whether to include him, but low chance Nemec falls. Its because I see a lot of scenarios where Jiricek will be picked before him. Currently in my rankings I have Jiricek above Nemec at 4th. Nemec is currently 5th on my rankings.
13Logo of the New York Islanders-Consistency with and without the puck
14Logo of the Winnipeg Jets-Offensive upside may scare teams off
15Logo of the Vancouver Canucks-There are concerns regarding his skating, mostly the acceleration. Every other aspect in his game is solid.
16Logo of the Buffalo SabresLogo of the Vegas Golden Knights
17Logo of the Nashville Predators-
18Logo of the Dallas Stars-
19Logo of the Los Angeles Kings-
20Logo of the Washington Capitals-
21Logo of the Pittsburgh Penguins-
22Logo of the Edmonton Oilers-
23Logo of the Anaheim DucksLogo of the Boston Bruins

The defensive play and skating/physicality of Chesley are good enough to cover for his lack of offense, I don't see him fall that far because he still offers an excellent two-way top four upside but if he does Montreal should be all over this guy.
