ROUND 1TEAMORIGINALPLAYERDETAILS
1Logo of the San Jose Sharks-Any draft where he isnt #1 blows my mind
2Logo of the Chicago Blackhawks-Demidov is great but he's objectively isnt a better player. Hawks draft smart and go with the position of need
3Logo of the Anaheim Ducks-Carlsson, Cutter, Mctavish.. Ducks add another weapon to their top 6
4Logo of the Columbus Blue Jackets-They could use a center.
5Logo of the Montreal Canadiens-Ducks pick: Habs trade 5oa for Zegras + 24oa pick. Zegras is arguely better than whats available at 5oa and will be more impactful. After Slafkovský showed a lot of promise Habs are going to try to make playoffs. Ducks get a high end RSD to replace Drysdale. Maximizing Zegras value.
7Logo of the Ottawa Senators-Need a RSD and Yakemchuk is a fantastic pick up at a big need position.
8Logo of the Seattle Kraken-Match made in heaven. He will fit perfectly with this franchise.
9Logo of the Calgary Flames-Better players available but not worth passing up on this opportunity.
10Logo of the New Jersey Devils-Nashville pick!!! : Devils trade 10oa for Saros + 22oa. Devils get a elite level goalie. They obviously extend Saros. Nashville gets a high end projected top 6 center.
11Logo of the Buffalo Sabres-Slight reach at this spot but their isnt any RSD available worth selecting and Buffalo is stacked at LSD so they select C that can play 2c-3c behind Cozen and Thompson.
12Logo of the Philadelphia Flyers-Fantastic player falls to Philly at 12oa. Philly top 4 defense is fantastic
13Logo of the Minnesota Wild-Wild need RSD so they take a slight reach but fill a position of need.
14Logo of the San Jose SharksLogo of the Pittsburgh PenguinsEiserman and Celebrini were deadly together Sharks dont think twice and draft him
15Logo of the Detroit Red Wings-I had Greentree going here but hes had a few bad showing recently and i think his stock has dropped. Connelly is way to talented for SY to not pick at this spot
16Logo of the St. Louis Blues-Blue need D and take a reach on one a the few good remaining D available in this range.If he can turn out close to his brother they got a gem
17Logo of the Washington Capitals-Hawks Pick: They move 20oa + 54oa to move up and select Sennecke. Hawks looking to add a weapon to play next to Bedard after drafting Levshunov. They have plenty of picks and are looking to get quality of quantitiy at this point
18Logo of the New York Islanders-Big body winger had a good year in the OHL. Islander look to add size and skill to their lineup
19Logo of the Vegas Golden Knights-One of the more NHL ready prospects in this draft. Vegas likely will need as many ELC as they can get moving forward
20Logo of the Chicago BlackhawksLogo of the Tampa Bay LightningDucks pick: They trade 24oa + 59oa. Ducks round out their top 4 with Mintyukov Kiviharju Zellweger and Parekh. Top 4 Forward group of Carlsson Mctavish Demidov and Cutter. Ducks are now stacked and ready to compete
21Logo of the Los Angeles Kings-Kings need some LSD in their system. Hes one of the better ones in this draft
22Logo of the Nashville Predators-Devils Pick:Looking to add a smart winger that can play in the top 6. Parascak overlook even after having a massive year in the wHL
23Logo of the Toronto Maple Leafs-Leafs add a RSD. to my knowledge they dont have many defensive prospects in their system
24Logo of the Anaheim DucksLogo of the Edmonton OilersCapitals add Luchanko one of the drafts biggest climbers they also added picks 54oa and 59oa. Ideally they could add Stiga with one of those picks or trade both to move up and draft him
25Logo of the Colorado Avalanche-
26Logo of the Ottawa SenatorsLogo of the Boston Bruins
27Logo of the Montreal CanadiensLogo of the Winnipeg Jets
28Logo of the Carolina Hurricanes-
29Logo of the Calgary FlamesLogo of the Vancouver Canucks
30Logo of the Philadelphia FlyersLogo of the Florida Panthers

The Blues are done with tiny Dmen who can't defend the trenches, thanks.

NSH misses playoffs next year and everyone turns on Tortz for being a stupid doofus. let it go Devils are not getting Saros, plus he isnt worth the 10th pick either. and im not paying him 8m+ dude was not good this year, give me Gust cheaper and looks to be better(IIHF he been good). Tortz wants an over pay for an expiring goalie.
