My mock for the top15:
I feel pretty good about the top7. I think Avs will want another high IQ line driver with offensive creativity, so Zegras would fit the bill there. Kings would add more speed and intensity with Turcotte. I could really see Stevie Y liking Peyton Krebs. He's in the same mold as many guys in Tampa. Not the biggest, but just really smart and a hard worker. Sabres are hard to pin down but I think Cozens could be a guy they target.
After that it gets really difficult to predict. I have no idea what Holland is thinking. Under the previous regime I would've thought for sure Kirby Dach, but with Holland at the helm I could see him looking at Americans like Caufield and Boldy, and then of course there's been some speculation lately about Broberg...hopefully he'd go with Dach in this situation though.
Then from there it's just really tough to predict what the other teams will do. I think Boldy is the type of player Anaheim usualyl likes, but I could also see them going with well, almost anyone. Broberg/Seider if they want a defenseman, but then again Cam York is a local Anaheim kid and is obviously a terrific player in his own right.
Canucks seems like a team that would be willing to roll the dice on Broberg. They hit on a huge upside kid in Pettersson, so why not try again but this time with a D? Flyers picking Newhook is just a gut feeling but I think it makes a lot of sense. Same goes for Wild and Caufield. Florida picking Podkolzin is maybe a bit lazy as most mocks have them doing that, but again it's something that makes sense. I think Coyotes want a D so I could see them taking either Seider or York here. Then whoever is still available makes sense for the Habs.
Anyway just a fun exercise. Wonder how many guys I get right on draft day. Maybe the Devils pick Kakko and it all goes south from there
