ROUND 1 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
1 | - | Still the best player in the draft, still the consensus #1 | ||
2 | - | Matthew Tkachuk (+4 ) | Tkachuck has proven he is the 2nd best player in this draft. Back to back 100 point seasons, dragging Florida into the playoffs and all the way to the SCF | |
3 | - | Clayton Keller (+4 ) | Imagine what Keller could do with elite talent around him | |
4 | - | Charlie McAvoy (+10 ) | Edmonton needs a #1 D man, and Fox only wanted to go to NYR. McAvoy is the best D man available | |
5 | - | Mikhail Sergachev (+4 ) | Sergachev and Chychrun can both play both sides which can make them a good partner for Hughes. It was a toss up, but Sergachev's durability gives him the edge. Best ability is availability | |
6 | - | Patrik Laine (-4 ) | Calgary just goes best player available | |
7 | - | Jakob Chychrun (+9 ) | Arizona still gets Chychrun, just 11 spots earlier | |
8 | - | Tage Thompson (+18 ) | Buffalo still gets Thompson, just in a different way | |
9 | - | Pierre-Luc Dubois (-6 ) | Self explanatory | |
10 | - | Jesper Bratt (+152 ) | Best player available | |
11 | Jordan Kyrou (+24 ) | Best player available | ||
12 | Alex DeBrincat (+27 ) | Ottawa gets DeBrincat, just earlier. Maybe they can convince him to stay | ||
13 | - | Filip Hronek (+40 ) | Carolina is a D man factory, lets keep it up | |
14 | - | Brandon Hagel (+145 ) | Marchand lite and BPA | |
15 | - | Samuel Girard (+32 ) | BPA | |
16 | Ross Colton (+102 ) | Versatile forward, BPA | ||
17 | - | Michael McLeod (-5 ) | BPA | |
18 | Dante Fabbro (-1 ) | RD is a position the Jets aren't deep at, especially after 2019 | ||
19 | - | Dillon Dubé (+37 ) | BPA | |
20 | Carter Hart (+28 ) | First goalie, Wings don't hve anything in the pipeline in 2016 | ||
21 | Filip Gustavsson (+34 ) | Carolina has struggled to keep their net solidified. Gustavsson can be that guy | ||
22 | Ryan Lindgren (+27 ) | Solid top-4 D man, BPA | ||
23 | - | Tyson Jost (-13 ) | Not a top-10 guy , but still a solid NHLer | |
24 | - | Trent Frederic (+5 ) | Gritty bottom-6 guy that kill penalties | |
25 | - | Taylor Raddysh (+33 ) | Think he could have developed into a top-6 guy if Tampa's top-6 weren't all locked up long term | |
26 | Jake Bean (-13 ) | Still think a team takes a chance on him in the 1st round | ||
27 | - | Andrew Peeke (+7 ) | He's carved out a nice NHL career playing beside Werenski, so no reason he couldn't do the same beside Hedman | |
28 | Jesse Puljujärvi (-24 ) | Caps wouldn't need him to play right away and could let him develop properly. I think they take a chance on him late in round 1 | ||
29 | Josh Mahura (+56 ) | Mahura showed he's capable of top-4 minutes this past season with Florida | ||
30 | Logan Stanley (-12 ) | For some reason, NHL GM's think he's an NHLer |
ROUND 2 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
31 | - | Joseph Woll (+31 ) | I think Toronto still takes Woll here | |
32 | - | Alexander Nylander (-24 ) | Maybe he can make something of his career playing next to McDavid or Draisaitl | |
33 | Max Jones (-9 ) | Sabres just gave up assets for Jordan Greenway, this gives them a guy just like him | ||
34 | - | Olli Juolevi (-29 ) | Columbus wouldn't newd him right away. He could spend a year in Finland, and then a year or 2 in the A and hopefully develop properly | |
35 | Luke Kunin (-20 ) | NHL calibre bottom-6er | ||
36 | Brett Howden (-9 ) | Howden proved he can be an effective complimentary piece on a good team | ||
37 | Sam Steel (-7 ) | Steel can be a good bottom-6 C who can fill in short term in your top-6 playing with good players | ||
38 | Rasmus Asplund (-5 ) | Great defensive bottom-6er | ||
39 | Nathan Bastian (+2 ) | Effective bottom-6er who can play on your PP and contribute offensively | ||
40 | - | Rem Pitlick (+36 ) | Can be a cheap, efficient 5v5 scorer | |
41 | - | Connor Ingram (+47 ) | Posting a .907SV% on last seaons Coyotes speaks for itself | |
42 | - | Logan Brown (-31 ) | ||
43 | - | Michael Eyssimont (+99 ) | ||
44 | Henrik Borgström (-21 ) | Tampa can afford to let him develop, and if done properly, can become a nice top-9 player | ||
45 | Kieffer Bellows (-26 ) | Is at least an NHLer | ||
46 | - | Jonathan Dahlén (-4 ) | Yzerman seems to have luck with Swedes, maybe he can convince him to stay in NA | |
47 | - | Tyler Parsons (+7 ) | Nashville is a goalie factory, maybe they can help Parsons reach his potential | |
48 | - | Wade Allison (+4 ) | ||
49 | Givani Smith (-3 ) | Total Boston player | ||
50 | Kale Clague (+1 ) | Hawks wouldn't need him right away, they could afford to let him develop properly | ||
51 | - | Carl Grundström (+6 ) | Same pick | |
52 | Riley Tufte (-27 ) | Total Flyers player | ||
53 | Julien Gauthier (-32 ) | Speedy bottom-6er. Maybe becomes a full time NHLer without the pressure of being a 1st rounder | ||
54 | Libor Hájek (-17 ) | Flames like their defensive D men, and wouldn't need him for a couple of years | ||
55 | Evan Fitzpatrick (+4 ) | Penguins still take a goalie | ||
56 | Tyler Benson (-24 ) | Maybe becomes a player on the other side of the province | ||
57 | Dennis Cholowski (-37 ) | Maybe reaches his potential as a 4/5 D man without the pressure of being. 1st rounder | ||
58 | - | Michael Pezzetta (+102 ) | Total Tampa player | |
59 | - | Jack Lafontaine (+16 ) | Blues still take a goalie | |
60 | - | Brandon Duhaime (+46 ) | Good PKing, bottom-6 winger | |
61 | - | German Rubtsov (-39 ) | Pens take a chance on his skill and potential |
