[JohnnyHockey]

I fully admit this is an old list, but I stopped updating a few weeks ago, but some guys like Chytil would be in there now. Just too many fringe 1st/2nd rounders. Lots of interchangeable players on the back end imo. If you say someone should be on there, over someone else I'd probably agree. Not a mock draft

1. Hischier
2. Patrick
3. Vilardi
4. Pettersson
5. Heiskanen

22. Tolvanen
23. Robertson

25. Lind
26. Poehling*
27. Comtois
28. Vaakanainen *
29. Thomas
30. Oettinger
31. Rasmussen

*guys I didn't watch much of either because of lack of film, or lack of quality film. I'm relying on others' analysis and breakdowns for these guys

Like a mock or who we think SHOULD be the order?

 

[JohnnyHockey]

Like a mock or who we think SHOULD be the order?

I think how they should be in order. At least that appears to be what most people are doing. No one seems to be attempting to match up needs.

Like a mock or who we think SHOULD be the order?

Ranking, basically BPA (not based on team needs or anything).
