2022 NHL Entry Draft - first three rounds projections

I just don’t think Lou would draft a defenseman under 6’0. Why does taking Lambert not sound like a Lamoriello move ?

Geekie is also an option.

Spending a relatively high pick on a prospect who struggled this year pretty bad. He'd take him with a lower pick though, similar to Räty.

I like Mesar a lot but if Leafs go winger I’d rather Gleb. His upside for me is too high to pass up.

But for me C is a real pressing organizational need.

If Noah Östlund was there I’d take him. Or Gaucher but I won’t be surprised to see Dubas trade back.

Really hope Logan Morrison doesn’t go that high. I really want him on the Leafs

because Lambert was considered a top 3 pick a year ago, he’d have no problem taking him at 13. Simon Holmstrom was once considered a top 15 in his D-1 season, was projected to fall out of the 1st rd in 2019 and Lou still took him at 23. The fact that Lamberts uncle is the head coach makes it almost a lock he’s taken if he’s there at 13.

With who’s left on your mock I think the top 3 in consideration for the isles pick is
1. lambert
2. Yurov
3. Kasper

After the playoffs Morrison had I won't be surprised if he goes even higher.
