I will literally throw up if the Yotes draft Rasmussen if Cody Glass is still available. Rasmussen's 5v5 production in his draft year is putrid, while Glass's production was anything but putrid.

I also don't see how P.O. Joseph goes before Brannstrom, Timmins, and Jokiharju.

Yotes also have pick 69 in the third, not 81.

Yeah. This is way bad for AZ.

 

[ChicagoBullsFan]

Why Florida Panthers should take center ( Cody Glass) again.
How freaking many times this have to say PANTHERS NOT NEED MORE CENTERS.

Panthers center prospect pool is already OK.
If Panthers has chance to take Tolvanen or Tippet i don't see Tallon pass either of them.

Yes i'm Panthers fan.

 

[MackAttack26]

Love the value of most of the picks for the Sabres but WAY to forward heavy for a team badly needing D.

 

[Juxtaposer]

Tolvanen is a good pick for the Sharks, but I'd be pretty mad if Suzuki fell to 18 only to get picked by Boston.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Vesalainen would be ok but Brannstrom is too low .... I think Ottawa takes him if he's where you have him

Also like RHD Luke Martin over LHD Robin Salo.. I like Martin's size and skating strengths vs Salo's skating issues

 

[Cane mutiny]

Like your picks for CAR. Good job there

 

[AnThGrt]

If LA had this draft I'd be rather ecstatic. Love Pettersson and hope we get him with #11. From there Chytil would be a solid 2nd round pick and love getting DiPietro in the 4th.

 

[denominator]

A couple of players are picked twice:

164. DET - Kirill Maksimov
181. CHI - Kirill Maksimov

186. PIT - Hayden Davis
216. NSH - Hayden Davis

 

[RememberTheName]

Just curious if this was possible, but could you put in the position of the players, because I don't know who a lot of these late round players are and would easy to just see what position they are

 

[Fat Elvis]

If LA had this draft I'd be rather ecstatic. Love Pettersson and hope we get him with #11. From there Chytil would be a solid 2nd round pick and love getting DiPietro in the 4th.

If all LA had was those 3 picks...

Except he has LA taking
Dylan Samberg 3rd, WHY?
Filip Westerberg a 5'8 dmen in the 4th, NO
and Ryan O'Connell a mystery man in the 5th.

Love the effort, but I'm guessing he just made up names to fill the draft out.

 

[FlamerForLife]

If Suzuki is there at 16, I sure hope the Flames take him.

 

[Walshy7]

Just an FYI leafs 2nd round pick is 59 not 50. Basically Tampa and Anaheim deals go tour 2 best 2nds leaving us with the worst one, due to Ottawa making the conference final we have their 2nd (pick 59) not sure it changes anything unless you were picking by team needs. Actually have no 3rd this year either

edit: our 3rd needs to go to detroit for Babcock and the 3rd from Anaheim the conditions weren't met

 

[Dukeordan]

Mason Shaw falling to the 4th round? This was a pretty good mock and I commend you for putting in the time and effort for putting together such a long and detailed mock. However, you have the Sabres taking wayyyyyy too many forwards, when they desperately need D. Then the Shaw thing... Seems like you just threw together a list of players, while not having a clue what team needs are. You can argue best player available; but at some point, teams have to start addressing organizational needs; and this mock fails miserably in that area. But again, I can appreciate the time and effort. Next time, just look into where teams need to add depth...

 

[uncleben]

A couple of players are picked twice:

164. DET - Kirill Maksimov
181. CHI - Kirill Maksimov

186. PIT - Hayden Davis
216. NSH - Hayden Davis

And, not to nitpick but just to help you OilerSuperstar17 for when you look at your list again closer to the draft, there is no David Koch in this draft. Should be Davis Koch

 

[MagicalRazor]

i've said it once and ill say it again im gonna make a bold prediction Leafs will take Conor Timmins of Sault greyhounds in the 1st round , I seen mark hunter at alot of the Playoff games , Especially in the Hounds VS sound eries , or my second choice would be NICHOLAS SUZUKI
