Round 1
0. Macklin Celebrini (Chicago Blackhawks) (Details: Easy choice).
0. Artyom Levshunov (Anaheim Ducks) (Details: Perfect fit, they are missing a piece like that).
0. Anton Silayev (Columbus Blue Jackets) (Details: They need to go for a D here, especially since they don't have the PIT pick anymore).
0. Ivan Demidov (San Jose Sharks) (Details: I could see Yakemchuk being interesting for CHI with Lev gone, but not at 4th OA. Lindstrom could be the pick as well, but they will go for ceiling).
0. Cayden Lindstrom (Montreal Canadiens) (Details: Makes so much sense if available for them).
0. Zayne Parekh (Arizona Coyotes) (Details: Simashev is so good defensively, that they can afford to take this guy at 6. They will work perfectly together on that 1st pair).
0. Berkly Catton (Philadelphia Flyers) (Details: Catton should be a Hab if MTL Demidov and Celebrini are gone before they pick).
0. Carter Yakemchuk (Washington Capitals) (Details: They probably draft a tad lower than they would have liked, and a lot of their big targets are gone, but getting a very good top 4 RD is great).
0. Liam Greentree (Detroit Red Wings) (Details: NJ is taking a power forward, depends on who they like more between Tree and MBN).
0. Sam Dickinson (St. Louis Blues) (Details: PIT can finally give a huge push to their prospect pool. They would have liked to go for the best ceiling, but they need to consider floor with such shallow prospect pool).
0. Zeev Buium (Vancouver Canucks) (Details: At this point, SEA should start selling Buium jerseys, its 100% happening).
0. Tij Iginla (Arizona Coyotes from Ottawa Senators) (Details: No need to explain).
0. Cole Eiserman (Buffalo Sabres) (Details: They don't need a winger, but all the Ds are gone. Another option is Helenius, who could be a Center at the NHL level).
0. Adam Jiricek (Pittsburgh Penguins) (Details: Really needed one of the elite Ds, but will unfortunately miss out. Jiricek will good on the 2nd pair though).
0. Michael Brandsegg Nygard (Nashville Predators) (Details: Seems like such a fit on that 2nd line).
0. Konsta Helenius (Calgary Flames) (Details: Big slip in the draft, NY get a really amazing pick).
