ROUND 1 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
1 | - | Tim Stützle (+2 ) | Easy pick in my opinion, comfortably the best player of this draft so far and will likely remain that way for at least most of their careers. | |
2 | - | Jake Sanderson (+3 ) | Top pair defenseman, stud. (would've been a crazy fit for him in LA in my opinion too) | |
3 | Alexis Lafrenière (-2 ) | Might be controversial, but Laf is truly breaking through this season and looks like he's on good way to develop into a 80-90 point a season winger. | ||
4 | - | Quinton Byfield (-2 ) | Big guy, took a while to develop since he was rushed but this season he is having a breakthrough. Will be a really good player | |
5 | - | Lucas Raymond (-1 ) | Had a great rookie season but a poor last season but looks pretty good again this season, will definitely be a great top 6 winger for years to come. | |
6 | - | Seth Jarvis (+7 ) | Going to be an awesome middle 6 winger for a contender team for years to come. | |
7 | - | Marco Rossi (+2 ) | Controversial again, but I'm high on Rossi, he's finally starting to find his game and I really do think he has a bright future, don't think he's going to be a 90-100+ points star but think he will be a dependable 1/2C that puts up around 70-80 points every season | |
8 | - | Dawson Mercer (+10 ) | Hasn't been good at all this season, but it will come. Will be a good second liner for Devils for many years. | |
9 | - | Kaiden Guhle (+7 ) | Great dman with a bright future. | |
10 | - | First player I have on the same spot he was picked. Can play both centre and winger which is good. Will be a career second liner just under PPG imo, a bit like Rossi but think Rossi has bigger upside. | ||
11 | - | Anton Lundell (+1 ) | As a Finn I'm very high on Lundell, think he has all the tools to be a great 2C but took a step back in his development last season and got outperformed by fellpw countryman Luostarinen (another player I'm very high on) but think he'll be alright, don't see a reason why he wouldn't be. Is on pace for a better season than last year too, not quite like his rookie year though. | |
12 | - | Jamie Drysdale (-6 ) | Still has a ton of upside but just hasn't shown enough yet. | |
13 | John-Jason Peterka (+21 ) | Can play on both sides. Had a good rookie season last year and on track to crack 50 points this season. Will be a great second line winger. | ||
14 | - | Ridly Greig (+14 ) | Having a great rookie campaign for a dysfunctional Ottawa, but remains to be seen if he can keep it up. | |
15 | Jack Quinn (-7 ) | Has had injury problems, but when he comes back I expect him to continue to impress like he did last year. | ||
16 | - | Alexander Holtz (-9 ) | If you asked me about him a year ago I would've had him low first round but he has bounced back, looks promising again now. | |
17 | - | Another player I have at the same place, can't wait to see how he and Bedard will play when they are surrounded by better teammates (sucks that its for Chicago though) | ||
18 | Devon Levi (+194 ) | Just wow, he has taken a large step from the draft until now and can very well develop even further. | ||
19 | Have him at Rangers again. I was high on him when he broke through, wasn't impressive last year though, especially in the Devils matchup. Has been better this year again. Will never be a top pair defenseman but might develop into a dependable two way second pair defeseman. Doesn't really have any stand out attributes but is quite solid. | |||
20 | Luke Evangelista (+22 ) | Nashville might've found a gem with this guy. | ||
21 | - | Jake Neighbours (+5 ) | High on him, should be given a bigger role in a quite bad St. Louis. | |
22 | Yegor Chinakhov (-1 ) | Hasn't played a lot this season, thought this season would be his breakthrough after a decent last season. Will have to wait and see if he still might turn this into a good season. | ||
23 | - | Alex Laferriere (+60 ) | Could probably use some time in the AHL, but has looked promising the times I've watched him for LA. | |
24 | Daemon Hunt (+41 ) | Wanted one really big upset in here and decided it would be this. Has looked VERY promising in my eyes for Minnesota. Has a bright future. | ||
25 | - | Dylan Holloway (-11 ) | Like him, I really do but hasn't really taken his chances this season. Would give him a shot at the top line with McDavid and Hyman a couple of games just to see if that could get him firing. | |
26 | - | Justin Barron (-1 ) | Montreal has a really promising dcore, Barron is one of those guys. Like his playstyle. | |
27 | William Wallinder (+5 ) | Was a great player in Sweden but to my understanding he hasn't been overly impressive in the AHL since coming over. Still a talented player who I have very few doubts about, will likely turn it around. | ||
28 | Hendrix Lapierre (-6 ) | A good player, hasn't impressed on NHL level yet but deserves a better chance in my opinion. | ||
29 | - | Tyson Foerster (-6 ) | Good playmaking winger who will no doubt have a big part in Philadelphias future. | |
30 | - | Yaroslav Askarov (-19 ) | Not much to say, hasn't broken though yet but will be a NHL caliber goaltender for years. | |
31 | Isaak Phillips (+110 ) | High on Phillips, think he'd be highly rated if he didn't play for a **** Chicago team. |
ROUND 2 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
32 | - | Brock Faber (+13 ) | Good defeseman, Minnesota will be pretty mid for a couple of years but in a couple of years when some bad contracts end and cap goes up I can see them contend, Faber will play a big part in that. | |
33 | - | Will Cuylle (+27 ) | Having his breakthrough year. Like him a lot on the thirdline for us, has grit but also a offensive upside. | |
34 | Shakir Mukhamadullin (-14 ) | Was a star in the KHL, now a really good AHL player. Will be a big part in Sharks future. | ||
35 | - | Roby Järventie (-2 ) | Like him a lot, have seen a lot of him too since he's a Finn. Has a good hockey sense which benefits him well. Good skater. | |
36 | - | Nils Åman (+131 ) | Love Åman, good two way center who I was impressed with last year when I saw him play for Vancouver but is back in the AHL this year. Deserves another shot. | |
37 | Connor Zary (-13 ) | Have been really impressed with him so far. | ||
38 | On the same spot he was actually drafted, see a good future for him. | |||
39 | - | Helge Grans (-4 ) | Think the trade to Philly actually will benefit him, going to get to play a bigger part of the future of his team | |
40 | - | Matthew Kessel (+110 ) | Was a overager for this draft. Has to get a shot at the NHL soon in my opinion. | |
41 | Jacob Perreault (-14 ) | Not sure he's gonna make it at NHL level unfortunately but a player who possesses a terrific shot. Needs to up his overall game though. Clearly has talent. | ||
42 | - | Brendan Brisson (-13 ) | ||
43 | - | Noel Gunler (-2 ) | Might be a bust. | |
44 | Egor Sokolov (+17 ) | |||
45 | Leevi Meriläinen (+26 ) | |||
46 | Jean-Luc Foudy (+29 ) | |||
47 | - | Samuel Knazko (+31 ) | ||
