ROUND 1 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
1 | - | Don't love him as a #1, but combination of high ceiling and high probability puts him at top spot. View him and Cooley as 1a and 1b. | ||
2 | - | Elite skating, playmaking, creativity, plays up against harder competition and showed defensive promise in 2nd half. Safest bet in draft to be a true offensive 1C | ||
3 | - | Tremendous skill and mobility for a big body. Still has some holes, but holds sky high offensive ceiling. | ||
4 | - | High-floor two-way center, with a one of the better shots in draft class. Lack of compete, slow progression knocks him out of top spot. | ||
5 | - | Lack of scoring as 17/18 year old in pro league is not a concern. Elite skating and offensive instincts will assets in NHL. Could easily prove to be top-3 talent. | ||
6 | Two-way center, physically developed, great stick skills, in mold of Anton Lundell, Paul Stastny. Very Mature player who likely will arrive in NHL sooner rather than later. | |||
7 | - | More than traditional power forward, good hands type. Great possession, puck-protection. Will play center in college. | ||
8 | - | Elite puck skills and smarts, but without NHL speed or NHL size, hard to put into top-5. | ||
9 | - | Shut-down RD with puck moving ability. Doesn't have skate tool to become true #1. Not as physical as some say. | ||
10 | - | Guys who can defend with their skating ability are gold in new NHL. Chesley is among the best of them. Plenty of offense. | ||
11 | - | Plays mistake-free, at high-speed, from center and wing. Transition game matches almost anyone. Underrated shot. | ||
12 | - | Elite skating and vision. Showed interior ability at U18. Needs a couple of years to bulk up, but will be one of the better offensive weapons in draft. | ||
13 | - | An elite shot, great puck skills, playmaking and the lateral mobility makes the "Firkus Circus" a worthwhile risk this early. | ||
14 | - | Defends with skating ability and gap closure. Attack-mindset on both ends. Probably middle pair floor. | ||
15 | - | NHL size and skating ability. Still raw in passing and transition. Upside is #1 dman. | ||
16 | Isn't as light on skates as his bodyweight suggests. Good power, speed, shot combination molds for Kyle Connor-esque player. | |||
17 | - | High-Motor, high-energy, puck-hungry forward who will get volumes of shots from slot inward. Underrated defensively, sneaky good stick skills in open ice. | ||
18 | - | Underrated shooter. Quick and hard release. Puck retrieval will likely be a strength at next level. | ||
19 | - | Can hurt you standing still. Great shot release. Lacks NHL size or skating ability to be all-around threat. | ||
20 | - | One of the better puck-movers via pass. Intelligence over raw skills type. | ||
21 | - | High IQ, High complete, high work-ethic. Can pass or shoot. Will need 2-3 years in NCAA to fully develop skating (needs to improve quickness/first-step). | ||
22 | Tons of risks here, but elite puck skills and easily a top-5 shot in this draft. | |||
23 | - | High energy and High IQ. Likely hasn't developed the puck skills for top-6 offensive role, but can be impact guy for bottom-6. | ||
24 | - | Had a very slow start on a very bad team, but piling up goals later in season. One of the better big wingers in draft. Not physical enough yet to be true power forward. Fantastic skating. | ||
25 | - | Smart, quick two-way d-man. Great in transition, underrated with stick in d-zone | ||
26 | One of the top skaters and one of the top passers in this draft class. Won't jump in right away. One guy that really would have benefited if he had gone the college route instead. | |||
27 | Smart two-way forward with high floor (offensive piece on a 3rd line). Plays well along boards, doesn't shy from battles. If shot continues to develop, could peak at Oshie-like player. | |||
28 | Creative playmaker type who plays the game fast. Has underrated one-timer. | |||
29 | - | Excellent size, speed, skating, skill combo in RD. One of the higher upside d-man in draft. | ||
30 | One of the best skaters in draft. An offensive, puck-moving dman, who is also not afraid to take it to the net. | |||
31 | - | Big dman with fluid mobility and ready puck skills. Probably one that gets to NHL quickly (within 2 years) | ||
32 | Hard to overlook the size on paper (5'8.25", 158 lbs), but as skilled an offensive dman as there is in this draft. The third NTDP dman in 1st round. |
