ROUND 1TEAMORIGINALPLAYERDETAILS
1Logo of the Chicago Blackhawks-
2Logo of the San Jose Sharks-Theyve drafted a lot of forwards in the past drafts and need to add some more talent on the backend.
3Logo of the Anaheim Ducks-They could use a top RHD to pair with either of Zellweger or Mintyukov
4Logo of the Columbus Blue Jackets-They could go either with a C or a LHD (so Dickinson, Buium or Lindstrom). Id bet on them going for the big C to play behind Fantilli
5Logo of the Montreal Canadiens-They need skills upfront and there are sone infos out there about the habs liking Demidov A LOT (more than Michkov).
6Logo of the Arizona Coyotes-They need defense particularly on the right side. They go with the best RHD available.
7Logo of the Ottawa Senators-They also need D more than F (though they might go with a guy like Iginla since theyd definitely prefer a RHD.
8Logo of the Seattle Kraken-Hes BPA and a need for SEA who has yet to draft a D in the 1st round since they arrived in the league.
9Logo of the Calgary Flames-No need to explain here.

Turns out there is indeed an order change, though I would expect CHI to also consider Silayev (or Levshunov) at 2 anyway.

Sharks Russian scouting was a disaster this year and their Russian scout was fired, while Silayev might be the best option, I don’t see them risking a top 3 pick in a guy they have limited scouting on. Likely opt for Levshunov while Russian was playing in NA this year so there will be better scouting.
