ROUND 1 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
1 | - | Zeev Buium | My Ranking: #4. I hate to include this kid on the list, but he is underrated by scouts. Most of them have Buium near the 10th to 15th range, but given his two-way game alone I don't see him making it out of the top 10 at all. If it happens, whoever drafts him will be getting a steal. | |
2 | - | Ivan Demidov | My Ranking: #6. Demidov is this year's Kemell. Productive and dominant winger but falls because of injury troubles. | |
3 | - | Cole Eiserman | My Ranking: #7. I have this kid being drafted around the 3rd to 8th mark, but given the scouting reports about Eiserman, I can also see him falling out of the top 10. A lot of scouts seeing him as a future bust, but given his incredible goal-scoring ability and skill alone, he's still a top 5 contender. All he needs to work on is his skating and effort away from the puck. | |
4 | - | Trevor Connelly | My Ranking: #8. Like Buium, Connelly is also underrated but the off-ice character issues could make him a serious faller in the draft. | |
5 | - | Berkly Catton | My Ranking: #10. Catton is this year's Benson. Offensively skilled, above average skater, but lacks size. | |
6 | - | Igor Chernyshov | My Ranking: #14. Could fall based off inconsistent production. Simple as that. | |
7 | - | Cole Hutson | My Ranking: #15. Simple to the point, I see Hutson as a potential faller solely due to size and underwhelming offensive production. | |
8 | - | Zayne Parekh | My Ranking: #19. Parekh is this year's Dragicevic. Everyone labelled Dragicevic as a clear top 15 pick, but he fell to the end of the 2nd round. I don't see Parekh falling out of the 1st round, but he will fall out of the top 15, maybe top 20. Defensive effort needs A LOT of work. | |
9 | - | Aron Kiviharju | My Ranking: #21. Simple to the point, its injury issues and bouncing between certain Finnish leagues. | |
10 | - | Adam Jiricek | My Ranking: #22. Struggled to produce this year then even worse, got injured for the rest of the season. | |
