where is Tomas Pospisil?? ever since Sarnia too him 4th overall in the import draft i've been looking in on stuff about him and he's cosndered to be a pick either in the last 5 first round picks, or the first 5 second round pics why isn't he in the top 60?

tyler plante is really under the radar is a lot of these. The general consensus i have seen in that he is a top 60 pick, yet in a few drafts on here, hes slipped to 85, not been picked in 3 rounds. Kind of interesting.

Who's Mason Raymond? He's not on any top 20 list for each league, so where did he play, what does he play, and why would LA grab him with their 2nd?

Mason Raymond

Raymond played tier 2 in Alberta, league champion and national silver medalist Camrose Kodiaks . He won the AJHL MVP 55gp-40g-42a-82pts and can flat out fly. I believe he is off to Minnesota-Duluth

Sounds good, I think great/good skating will be more important than in years past.
Is taking Raymond at 50 sound about right?

I am not too sure, I have heard any where from an late second round to fourth round. He is a little under sized at I believe 5'11" 180 but should have potential to fill out. His skating and offensive instincts are outstanding and competes hard, the nights I have watched him

Maybe with our 3rd rounder, 50 seems a little early imo. But if that's how it ends up, I hope he works out well for us.

Great picks for Anaheim. Mikkelson is a great pick for them at #31, but I'm thinking they might opt for a guy like Blunden, and maybe try and pick up a Joe Finley or Danny Syvret at #59.
