William Nylander: No. 8 (Toronto Maple Leafs)
The son of Michael Nylander, who had a 15-year NHL career, stood out in Toronto's prospect camp and could make a run at a roster spot this season. Nylander can play center or right wing, and he played with professionals last season with Modo of the Swedish Hockey League and with his father for Rogle in Sweden’s second division.
Keep in mind Carolina Hurricanes center Jeff Skinner was the seventh pick of the 2010 draft and went on to lead all rookies with 63 points in 82 games on his way to the Calder Trophy. If anyone outside the top five has a chance to repeat this feat it is Nylander, so target him in the last rounds of your draft as a definite sleeper pick to have on your bench.

I thought it was interesting that Matt Sitkoff (NHL.com contributor) left Sam Reinhart off his list, but included Willie. The article is not a great read by any means, but it's worth noting this kid is gathering some attention.
