DRAFT

TEXT-EMBED

Round 1
1. Connor Bedard (Chicago Blackhawks) (Details: Just... let's not speak of it.).
2. Adam Fantilli (Anaheim Ducks).
3. Leo Carlsson (Columbus Blue Jackets).
4. Matvei Michkov (San Jose Sharks) (Details: The suspense ends fast.).
5. Will Smith (Montreal Canadiens).
6. David Reinbacher (Arizona Coyotes).
7. Ryan Leonard (Philadelphia Flyers).
8. Dalibor Dvorsky (Washington Capitals).
9. Oliver Moore (Detroit Red Wings).
10. Zach Benson (St. Louis Blues) (Details: Dubas strikes! He trades POJ, Granlund with 1M retained and #14 for #10, Leddy and their own '23 3rd, so he can take the small skill player of average speed. His favorite. At least this one has his head on straight and stays on the ice.).
11. Dmitri Simashev (Vancouver Canucks) (Details: Please forgive me for this one... unable to get Reinbacher, a despondent PA makes that dumb rumored pick swap with Chicago, begging the question: did he not come up with any other ideas in all this time? But hey, the Canucks get their RD in Murphy, moving out Beauvillier to even the cap out, and adding a 3rd because why wouldn't he help out the Hawks a little more. And then the Hawks make a good pick and piss me off proper. This day is already a roller coaster of emotions.).
12. Axel Sandin Pellikka (Arizona Coyotes from Ottawa Senators) (Details: Army mini-me is not a dummy. He knows what competent RDs are worth.).
13. Colby Barlow (Buffalo Sabres).
14. Nate Danielson (Pittsburgh Penguins) (Details: The Blues think about Willander, but take Danielson (who's like O'Reilly, but faster and a bit meaner).).
15. Gabe Perreault (Nashville Predators).
16. Calum Ritchie (Calgary Flames).
17. Samuel Honzek (Detroit Red Wings from New York Islanders) (Details: Lucky barsteward.).
18. Tom Willander (Winnipeg Jets) (Details: The 'Peg trades this pick and what's-his-face and that other thing for PLD, and then Habs destroy Allvin's day again.).
19. Brayden Yager (Chicago Blackhawks from Tampa Bay Lightning) (Details: Yager (and getting Murphy) is a solid consolation prize. Cheer up, PA.).
20. Daniil But (Seattle Kraken).
21. Danny Nelson (Minnesota Wild) (Details: A reach? Yes. A bad pick? Maybe not, we'll see.).
22. David Edstrom (Columbus Blue Jackets from Los Angeles Kings) (Details: Lucky barsteward.).
23. Matthew Wood (New York Rangers).
24. Eduard Sale (Nashville Predators from Edmonton Oilers).
25. Oliver Bonk (St. Louis Blues from Toronto Maple Leafs).
26. Quentin Musty (San Jose Sharks from New Jersey Devils).
27. Andrew Cristall (Colorado Avalanche) (Details: Dumb pick.).
28. Cameron Allen (Toronto Maple Leafs from Boston Bruins) (Details: Dumb pick.).
29. Theo Lindstein (St. Louis Blues from Dallas Stars).
30. Charlie Stramel (Carolina Hurricanes).
31. Étienne Morin (Montreal Canadiens from Florida Panthers).
