The Blues will almost certainly take a Dman, and you've left a buffet of them for them here.

I would be thrilled with Jiricek in Detroit, I really hope we draft another RHD first round.

Also do you really see Buffalo passing on multiple RHD to select another winger?

Well, after the Seider/Girgensons blockbuster…

I do think they need complimentary RDs. At 6th overall, it’s probably still best player available. Maybe good opportunity to trade back a few spots.

I will say about the blockbuster, does Seider have a rap song written about him? Girgs does. That alone makes it worth while.

I could see them grabbing a Jiricek or similar at 6th overall and not feel too badly about it. I do agree though, that high you take best player available but they should try to focus on a position of need a bit.

Like the Buium respect, he's a stud. One of my favorites personally. Anaheim getting another stud dman would be insane

I like Connelly as a player, would be a bit shocked to see him go so high because of potential Character concerns and backlash.

Also Parekh is in the 12th and 21st spot, Sure that's CapFriendly goofing and not saving. But I'd agree that;s the right range for him anywhere between there.

Think he's a skilled player with some compete level issues which usaully drives concern from scouts.

Good list. Nice to see Buium getting some well deserved attention. Lindstrom and Parekh would be steals at #11 and #21.
