| ROUND 1 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
|---|
| 1 |  | - | RANK: 1 Checks all the boxes for the Sharks to get their next Franchise player. | |
| 2 |  | - | RANK: 2 Demidov is a worldclass playmaker, has to work on the small aspects of his game and get into the KHL to see how he stacks up against men. But he would be the perfect wingman for Bedard. | |
| 3 |  | - | RANK: 5 Fills the need of the ducks but he has several aspects to his game he needs to work on including his shot, defensive hockey IQ, and limiting himself from over committing on the man. | |
| 4 |  | - | RANK: 3 Silayev has proven he is ready for the big leagues this season, fitting right into the KHL with no big issues. Can play the right side of the blueline but is naturally on the left side. In my eyes he is the top defenseman in this draft. | |
| 5 |  | - | RANK: 10 Pick based off the needs of the Canadians, he brings size and grit along with the an NHL ready frame to a team that needs some snarl. | |
| 6 |  | - | RANK: 4 Buium is electric, he is good in transition, has a great shot and plays like a true #1 defenseman. In my eyes you cannot go wrong with Buium here. | |
| 7 |  | - | RANK: 6 Stiga is criminally underrated because of his size. Take that away from the situation and he is a top 3 pick in this draft. He does everything well and has no true flaws to his game. Once he puts on some more weight and maybe grows another inch or two he will be in the top 5 conversations of this draft. | |
| 8 |  | - | RANK: 8 Parekh is exactly what you think of as an offensive defenseman. Gets up into the rush, great passer, great shot. The draw back to him is the lack of defense in his own zone that comes with him jumping up all the time. Once he polishes that up the Kraken have a number 1 d-man. | |
| 9 |  | - | RANK: 11 iginla is a beast, plays with a little less snarl than his dad but more offensive talent. Calgary continues the bloodline and has a great top center prospect on their hands. | |
| 10 |  | - | RANK: 7 Dickinson is the all around LHD package you could want and he can make plays in both ends. Devils fans are thrilled they get a gamer here. | |
| 11 |  | - | RANK: 12 The Sabres have their prayers answered with a RHD that will instantly give them someone to pair with Power. Yakemchuk is an offensive animal and has good in zone defense that needs improvement but the base is there. | |
| 12 |  | - | RANK: 9 Philly gets their center prospect for Michkov, Arguably the second best center in the draft. Catton doesn't have the size or strength of an NHLer yet but he has everything else going for him. He is an offensive weapon that would thrive with Michkov. | |
| 13 |  | - | RANK: 14 I don't think I need a description here because everyone and their mother has been talking about this kid for the past couple weeks. The wild get a good one at 13. | |
| 14 | |  | RANK: 19 Who saw this coming? The Sharks take Celebrini but address another position of need with a RHD. Jiricek is a very solid prospect like a slightly less developed version of his brother, injuries held him back but with a healthy season we could see why he was ranked in the top 10 for a while. | |
| 15 |  | - | RANK: 13 Detroit hits a homerun here getting an NHL ready RW from Europe at pick 15. Helenius plays Yzerman style and would offer a great depth scoring piece and some grit to the lineup. | |
| 16 |  | - | RANK: 25 A bit of a reach here by the blues but they need a high end RHD prospect and it boils down to Mews or Emery with Jiricek off the board. Mews has offensive talent pouring out of him and the Blues could use a solid puck moving defenseman more than a shutdown piece early in this retool. | |
| 17 |  | - | RANK: 17 Eiserman is a goal scorer (just in case you didn't know lol) outside of his shooting and his straight line speed he has pretty poor development. The Capitals love boom or bust picks and Eiserman fits right into that category. | |
| 18 | |  | RANK: 27 Emery is a very solid shutdown defenseman not a very good shot, but has good vision and closes lanes well defending the rush. I would say they need more offensive threats but they will address that later on. | |
| 19 |  | - | RANK: 18 Parascak is an offensive explosion of a player. He will score goals, send great passes and play a well maintained style of hockey limiting transition chances. | |
| 20 | |  | Rank: 16 Connelly would be a top 5 player if he didn't have question marks around his off ice personality. Extremely skilled offensive weapon that Lou could tap into but the concerns cause him to drop down the rankings a bit. | |
| 21 |  | - | RANK: 20 Greentree is a hard to play against power forward that reminds me of Tom Wilson in juniors. Could be a massive selection for the kings. | |
| 22 |  | - | RANK: 15 The biggest concern with MBN is the transition to NA hockey in my eyes. He is a year away from being NHL ready with is better than most in front of him but some European players struggle when coming over to the smaller sheet. This should honestly benefit MBN though as he is a physical machine. | |
| 23 |  | - | RANK: 21 Chernyshov is another grinder/power forward type play in my eyes. hard to play against and gets teammates open. The Leafs have no issue taking Russians so its a good fit. | |
| 24 |  | - | RANK: 30 A massive frame for a teenager with a great shot and decent enough skating to be selection in the first round. We will see if there is a lot of success from being larger than his peers or if his talent translates to the college game. | |
| 25 | |  | Rank: 22 A near NHL ready player. Younger kid for this draft but he has been playing against men and doing it well. Could be a massive dark horse. | |
| 26 | |  | RANK: 28 Basha is a current teammate of their earlier pick and they are looking to bring in some existing chemistry having the two potentially together on a line in the future. Well rounded 2-way player | |
| 27 |  | - | RANK: 26 Carolina gets something they are lacking and that is a guy that will be their second line center in the future. underrated player that had a solid season. Creative Playmaking center that needs to work on his shot and his own zone. | |
| 28 | |  | RANK: 23 Hutson has proven that he can move very well with and without the puck as well as play as a very high level playmaker. Size is the only true concern | |
| 29 |  | - | RANK: 29 Goal scoring center that controls his own end well and has a good shot. Needs to put some weight on and work on his strength but good project add here. | |
| 30 |  | - | RANK: 24 Great two way center that has a good shot, good vision and intelligent hockey IQ. The Rangers need some young centers that project well in the NHL and Hage is that. | |
| 31 | |  | RANK: 31 Hard to play against punishing center that has a tendency to overstep it. If he can get his discipline in check he could be a legit top 6 center in the league and with Michkov being a teammate they make be a strong pair as well. | |
| 32 | |  | RANK: 37 The Ducks need RW prospects and they target one that plays a very clean game and jumps on the chances that are presented to him. Needs to take better care of the puck in his own zone but he is still young. |
| ROUND 2 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
|---|
| 33 | | - | RANK: 32 Gridin has a great shot, good vision and is smart with the puck on his stick. Underrated in my opinion but I feel like the USHL is often overlooked outside of NTDP. | |
| 34 | | - | RANK: 40 Howe has proven he was not only a success because of Bedard. But now he gets to join him in the NHL. The Chemistry between the two is already off the charts and he has shown he has enough of his own talent to be a high selection. Future #1 line of Howe-Bedard- Demidov is terrifying for the league. | |
| 35 | | - | RANK: 46 Danford is a solid 2-way defenseman that moves well and can lock down his own end. A bit of a reach in my eyes but the Ducks need more RHD in the system. | |
| 36 | | | RANK: 35 LSW is an offensive weapon on the blueline Briere gets a good one here with a young gifted European Blueliner in the early second round. | |
| 37 | | | RANK: 39 Kiviharju is unfortunately hampered by his lack of size. If he was 6 foot he would be a top 15 selection. Insane offensive ability for a defenseman but the size concerns make him slip in Rankings. | |
| 38 | | - | RANK: 42 Russian Lock down defenseman, Looks like Utah is trying to have the Russian National Defense core here. | |
| 39 | | - | RANK: 45 This one may come as a surprise to most but Brunicke ends up getting selected in the early second round. very solid two way defenseman that has shown he belongs in the conversation for the top 10 RHD's in this draft. | |
| 40 | | - | RANK: 38 A very underrated forward that doesn't have any major holes in his game. Good goal scorer, passer, you name it Vanacker can most likely be that player on your team. Future middle 6er for the Kraken. | |
| 41 | | - | RANK: 44 I am far lower on Ritchie than most people. I understand injuries held him back this year but I didn't feel like I saw improvement in his game from last season. I would like to see him take the next step before I have him any higher. | |
| 42 | | | RANK: 36 Another offensive blueliner from Sweden. teammate of LSW and plays a very similar style. This is a steal for the sharks at 42. | |
| 43 | | - | RANK: 38 Russian undersized playmaking winger. Insane puck skills and a strong season in the KHL as a teenager. Would be a great addition to the already strong Buffalo Offense. | |
| 44 | | | RANK: 41 NTDP pass first winger that would benefit Yager on the same line or as a set up man on the power play. | |
| 45 | | - | RANK: 33 Strong two way defenseman that can join in on the Rush but doesn't live or die by it. Sound in his own end and has an NHL ready build. | |
| 46 | | - | RANK: 50 Not really too huge on Beaudoin but others seem to be high on him. Solid all around 2 way center. I think he needs to show a little more offensive upside but he plays smart in his own end. | |
| 47 | | - | RANK: 47 Smart and Responsible center that makes good plays in transition. I like Petterssons game as a 3/4 line center in the future. | |
| 48 | | - | RANK: 43 Bednarik is a very sound player all around for NTDP. Over a ppg and looks promising in his own zone as well. Will be a solid 3c in NHL if I had to take a guess. | |
| 49 | | | RANK: 48 Miettinen brings size to the center ice position. He has a good shot but knows when to pass the puck. Adjusted well to NA ice, and very sound when moving the puck out of his own end. | |
| 50 | | | RANK: 49 Shoot first center that has good vision on the ice, takes some lazy penalties from time to time but is also a good defensive center. | |
| 51 | | - | RANK: 52 Muggli is someone that compares strongly to JJ Moser. Same path, both overagers, good puck moving d-man. Numbers do not jump off the page at you but his game speaks for itself. | |
| 52 | | | RANK: 45 Love this kid, he is a great skater (has to be at his size) a wicked playmaker and has insane hands. Doesn't take of lot of penalties and plays hard every shift. Another player that if he were six foot tall he would be a top 20 guy all day. | |
| 53 | | | RANK: 51 Puck moving RHD that really needs to shore up his own zone, mistakes along the wall cost his team a lot his year but it is something good coaching can work on. | |
| 54 | | | RANK: 55 Big bodied overager that really found his game this year. Smart defensively and good in the offensive zone. Could be a great addition that teams passed on last year. | |
| 55 | | - | RANK: 72 Prep School playmaker that really dominated against people his own age. Reminds me of Cristall from last draft. | |
| 56 | | | RANK: 53 Hardworking playmaking winger. Draws defenseman out of the slot and finds ways to get the puck inside to the right players. Pass first RW. | |
| 57 | | | RANK: 57 The Habs look to continue solidifying their center position getting Misa late in second. Playdriver, playmaker, and is always moving his feet up the ice in all three zones. Great motor on this kid. | |
| 58 | | | RANK: 59 One of the more mature games out there in the draft. Doesn't force anything, plays to his hand and makes the right play almost everytime. | |
| 59 | | | RANK: 54 Big Bodied defenseman that is hard to play against. doesn't take a shift off but does get a little over involved sometimes resulting in him getting a penalty. | |
| 60 | | - | RANK: 57 Skilled pass first center that leans bottom 6 NHLer. Good option to create some offense in the lower unit of your lineup. | |
| 61 | | | RANK: 84 Big bodied center that will play hard minutes and do what it takes to win games. You cannot teach heart in the league. | |
| 62 | | | RANK: 56 Offensive pass first defenseman, rated lower for most people but he does the little things right. Isn't overly physical and allows the play to come to him, steals pucks while resulting from great hockey IQ and vision. Moves the puck very well. | |
| 63 | | | RANK: 60 Jecho can be summed up in one phrase. Offensive Swiss Army Knife. | |
| 64 | | - | RANK: 76 Playmaker from the Oceanic. Not the best in his own zone but he is great with the puck on his stick where the others teams goaltender hides. | |
| 65 | | | RANK: 104 Ending on a high note. (Literally, the kid is 6'7") Have fun with that lol |
