Round 1
0. Shane Wright (Buffalo Sabres) (Details: Despite his poor performance in the WJC, I still love his overall game and what he brings to the table.).
0. Tucker Robertson (Seattle Kraken) (Details: While watching highlights, I was a fan of the way he uses his size to generate scoring opportunities. Also love his overall offense and skating ability, although he can be a bit slow at times. This is a bold statement, but I think he could be NHL ready and could take a similar path to Cole Sillinger.).
0. David Jiricek (Anaheim Ducks) (Details: Liked his overall progression, his two-way game is outstanding.).
0. Matt Savoie (New Jersey Devils) (Details: Love his rebound from the poor season he had in 2019-20, now leading the dub in points.).
0. Logan Cooley (Columbus Blue Jackets) (Details: I'm a big fan of his skating and playmaking ability, despite the size. But we all know that size doesn't matter anymore.).
0. Danila Yurov (Detroit Red Wings) (Details: Like Jiricek, loved his progression. If it wasn't for the fact that he's playing in Russia, he would be in the NHL next season, but I don't think it will happen.).
0. Joakim Kemell (San Jose Sharks) (Details: I'm a big fan of his overall game. Great goal-scorer and can put up big point totals against men. Not many young players can put up as many points as Kemell is.).
0. Frank Nazar (Los Angeles Kings) (Details: Very underrated prospect. While watching highlights, I was a big fan of his speed and the way he uses his small frame to get around the opposition.).
0. Conor Geekie (Arizona Coyotes from Vancouver Canucks) (Details: Despite the poor skating ability, I still love everything else about Geekie's game. I'm a fan of his size, just a solid power foward.).
0. Cutter Gauthier (Ottawa Senators) (Details: He's always able to find the open areas of the ice and score there. I just love the way he progressed throughout the season so far and he's risen up the draft rankings well because of it.).
