Yes ik it's not November yet, but I made my updated list already, and I'm very impatient. So here's my newest mock draft, and now they are based on team needs Standings are based on the date 10/26/17
1. ARZ- Rasmus Dahlin D Frolunda HC (SHL)
An easy choice for any team that has the 1st overall selection, and if they Coyotes can get their hands on a possible franchise defender they'll have another piece of their long rebuilding stage.
2. MTL- Andrei Svechikov RW Barrie Colts (OHL)
Montreal is in need of a center, but I wouldn't pass up on Svechikov. Hes a pure sniper, and could end up being a 30+ goal scorer in the NHL.
3. EDM- Adam Boqvist D Brynas IF J20 (Super elit.)
Edmonton has an average defense IMO, and I don't think they'll end up with this pick once the season is over, but if they can end up getting Boqvist, another possible elite defender in this draft that would be amazing for them in the future.
4. NYR- Ty Smith D Spokane Chiefs (WHL)
A solid defender who could end up turning into a very good two way defender. Rangers IMO need that future star defender more than forwards, especially after they added Andersson in the last draft.
5. FLA- Quinton Hughes D Univ. Of Michigan (NCAA)
Florida's defense is pretty bad, so this is a perfect season to suck once again. This draft is loaded with defenders so no matter what pick the Cats end up with they'll get a pretty good defender. Hughes IMO in the next best one, another solid defenseman who could end up as a elite defender.
6. MIN- Filip Zadina RW Halifax Mooseheads (QMJHL)
7. CAR- Brady Tkachuk C Boston Univ. (NCAA)
8. BOS- Oliver Wahlstrom RW U.S National U18 Team (USHL)
9. BUF- Ryan Merkley D Guelph Storm (OHL)
10. SJ- Jesper Kotkaniemi LW Assat (Liiga)
