I really think Schremp is the best of the offense here, I think Tukonen could be a bit overrated on these boards and I think that too much is being played about Olesz having trouble in the offensive end. With Olesz it reminds me of the Michalek issue as well and things are looking good for him in the offensive zone, I think Olesz will surprise people with the amount of offense he will bring. Picard is mostly goals, he is not a great passer so don't look for a alot of assists unless people clean his garbage up in front; Radulov has the most interesting package here, I will see for next year of him in Quebec; Ladd IMO will be a good all around player but I don't think he will be a 70 point scorer or anything, I think he will be a solid 50 to 60 range in the NHL.
Two steals in the 2nd round, Martin Karsums who I think will be better than almost 50% to 70% of the 1st rounders taken, and Bruce Graham who I think teams will look back and think why didn't we take these guys in the 1st rounds. I really think Karsums is going to be better than Picard, Picard IMO might not turn out to be the player people think he will be, Karsums has better hands than Picard and just as good a scoring touch, Karsums is more physical and tries more on the ice, Karsums has the ability though to pass the puck and make highlight plays while plays gritty and two way.
