1-Cam Barker I'm really high on him... He has all the tools to become a great D-Man in a near future.
2-Andrew Ladd Should devellop in a good PowerForward. It's with these players you win championships.
3-Lauri Tukonen Didn't had the chance to see him play, but I only hear great thing about him. Similar to Milan Michalek, if everything I read is correct.
4-Rob SchrempGreat offensive player. A little underrated right now.
5-Rotislav Olesz
6-Alexander Radulov

I think Schremp's skill level is that good, that I'd take him over all the others, but I'd like to see him improve his foot speed/skating.

Olesz I've only seen twice at the wjc's and wasn't that impressed, so it's hard for me to really rate him. I thought his linemate Kaspar was more noticeable in the Czech/Slovakia game (just rewatched last week) but from what I've read, I'd take Olesz over Schremp, but from what I've seen I'd go with Schremp.

Ladd looks like he's going to be a solid PF type, good skater/speed for his size.

Tukonen I really liked what I saw from him at the wjc's, good size skating speed, and was physical as well. I don't know how well he will do offensively in North America, but he has a great package of skills to work with.

Barker has good size/skating/offensive abilities, should be a top notch defensemen, may need to work on his turning, but that's what a scout said to me, as I talk with ISS scouts every so often.

Radulov I've never seen, so it's hard for me to rate him. Sounds like he could be a good one for sure.

I did it that way because, barring a trade, one of these kids will be wearing a Phoenix Coyotes(my team) sweater on draft day, and I was wondering which I should be hoping for.

If we're going based on who i think the Yotes would draft based on these players i'd do it like this:

1. Ladd
2. Barker
3. Tukonen
4. Olesz
5.Schremp
6. Radulov

I personally feel if i was drafting i'd have:

1. Schremp
2. Radulov
3. Olesz
4. Tukonen
5. Barker
6. Ladd

And what does that have to do with it... there are other possibilities. Playing in a top league by no means guarantees NHL-readiness.
