Jakub Voracek is the top European right now.
He doesn't really count since he's in the CHL. He will be considered a North American draft pick.

Depends who's list you are on. I believe both CSS and ISS use where the player is currently playing to determine if they are NA or Euro, but other lists base them on country of citizenship. Most of hte top ranked Europeans are playing in NA this year (Voracek, Moller, Bashkirovs, Repik)
IMO, when most people ask about "European player" they're usually referring to prospects playing in Europe, not European-born players in NA.
Just my two cents on this.
I'd take Cherepanov as the first Russian taken. Currently has 9pts in 16g for Avangard.
He's a bit small though.

Is Micheal Repik (Vancouver Giants) still highly regarded???
Yeah. I think he'll go in the 15-20 range. Hands aside, I've actually became a fan when he went after the other teams goon last year to stick up for Brule.I'm personally looking at Repik going in the top 20. I think his size is the only thing that hurts him (5'11, 175).
Is Marek Benda still #1 for Goalies?

Ruslan Bashkirov and his smaller twin brother Roman.
So, does anybody think we'll see a team try to pick these brothers back to back, like the Canucks did with the Sedins? I don't mean as high as #2 and #3, but just try to get both of them in general, or is their potential vastly different, and wouldn't warrant picking them back to back? Also, does anybody know if they even play together, with the same type of chemistry as the Sedins?
size is not an issue in the NEW NHL. Buffalo Sabres dress 14 players under 6 feet.
im guessing Brian Burke will try to beat us to it. Your saying one is smaller, how small are they? A inch shorter or what. Daniel is 1 inch shorter then Henrik, so yea.
anyways, anyone know their current ranking?
Ok nevermind. Just found out that the older twin is 6'0 189 the younger twin is 5'10 166
