Poll Mock Draft: Fifth Pick

[Youreallygotme]

Rostislav Olesz fan away with the fourth, so it goes like this:

1. Ovechkin
2. Malkin
3. Barker
4. Olesz
5. ?

This one should be interesting, as Montoya, Ladd, Tukonen all have a good chance at this one.

I say Tukonen.

 

[monster_bertuzzi]

Tukonen is quite a bit better than Ladd...

I honestly believe Schremp is going top 5. GM's will take a chance on him because of the immense upside.

 

[lace-em'-up]

how are you guys judging this BPA? or by team.

Both, try to think of a org's depth needs, but BPA will over-rule immediate needs for me.

 

[lace-em'-up]

i don't mean immediat needs, a team like dallas wont draft a goalie,
a team with a good group of future Dmen arnt going to pick another Dman

 

[Jon Burke]

I'd say Tukonen, but Ladd is close behind him.

I honestly believe Schremp is going top 5. GM's will take a chance on him because of the immense upside.

He's probably a top 5 talent, but this draft is pretty good in terms of top end talent. There is probably about 7 or 8 guys who would normally be in the top 5. I agree that he could go in the top five, unfortunately I don't think he will because of reservation over his attitude.

Schremp is going to Pheonix, he made that skills video with Gretzky when he was 13 and they've been pretty close since then.I also hear that Barnett's pick is Montoya, but i think Phoenix trades down and take Schremp.So let's say the Kings or Rangers trade up and pick Montoya.
