The first 5 names listed above the line are eligible to be put directly on to the list.

[STL fan in MN]

I went with Schenn last time so I've gotta go Schenn again.

Add Rundblad.

 

[CAPiTA]

Schenn lands at 6 easily. I see Toronto trading up to get him.

After seeing highlights of Wheat Kings games, I am quite impressed with Glennie. He has a good chance of becoming a sniper. His offensive ceiling is higher than Schenn's.

 

[Pyke*]

I still like Schroeder and Ellis. I think Schroeder is under-rated, and Ellis imo is the best puck mover in the draft.

Btw, as good as some of these guys are:
If current voting trends represent where people will end up, Ellis is basically slotted 14th? Not sure that makes much sense.

i don't think Ellis is going to go to high, though 14 might be low, hes an undersized defenseman in a pretty deep D draft. His offensive potential can't be questioned, but its a risky pick because of his size and I don't know if GMs are willing to risk a high pick on him.

 

[ChiGuySez]

Add Moore

 

[nucksforthecup]

Schenn and Kadri

add Holland.

 

[rt]

Schenn, Kadri

add Moore

 

[BearChi]

schenn easily, kadri

 

[jlockhart89]

Schenn, Glennie.

Add Holland

 

[RoyBoyCoy]

Kuli and Kads

 

[Nunymare]

Shenn and Josefson.

Add Rundblad

 

[SixthSens]

Schenn/Glennie.

 

[VikingAv]

Cowen, Despres and Rundblad.

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Schenn, Josefson, add Kassian!

 

[BillyShoe1721]

Cowen, Kadri

Add John Moore

Cowen despite the injury is a rare player, he's a big guy that can skate. Moore is raw but he has all the tools you need, he just needs to grow and fill out.

 

[Savi]

Cowen and Glennie

add Rundblad

 

[Canuck71*]

Cowen and Glennie.

I think Rundblad deserves a nomination by now.

 

[BritSabre]

Scheen, Josefson, Rundblad

 

[Ten]

Brayden Schenn, Simon Despres.

Add Zack Kassian.

He's just below 6 feet. Many guys are still growing at 17-18.

I agree he's not exactly huge, but it's not like he's Brian Gionta (forward, I know, but the point is size) either...

I also agree it's a pretty deep draft, I just question in the "new NHL" that size > skill.

Ellis reminds me a lot of Bryan Berard pre-eye injury.

That's not how it's supposed to work.

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

That's not how it's supposed to work.

At least people stopped voting for the line.
