Almost 3 years to the day lol

 

[Canucker]

1st (10th overall): Really wanted Zegras to fall, but I'm good with Podkolzin. (I wasn't high on him initially, but he's growing on me)
2nd (40th): Albin Grewe
4th (122nd): Ethan Keppen (seems like a decent pick)
5th (133rd): Reece Newkirk

[sandwichbird2023]

1st (10th overall): Boldy
2nd (40th): Afanasayev
*3rd (71st): Dorofeyev
4th (122nd): Keppen

Thats as far as I can go, anything beyond is just uneducated guesses.

 

[Hansen]

1st (10th overall): Cole Caufield
2nd (40th): Nils Hoglander
4th (122nd): Antti Saarela
5th (133rd): Martin Hugo Has
6th (156th): Marshall Warren
6th (175th): Dustin Wolf
(from this point on I dont really know, I didnt pay attention to potential late snags this year)

I would have taken Puistola or Legare with our 3rd and been ecstatic btw

Here's our Actual picks:

1st (10th overall): Vasili Podkolzin
2nd (40th): Nils Hoglander
4th (122nd): Ethan Keppen
5th (133rd): Carson Focht
6th (156th): Arturs Silovs
6th (175th): Karel Plasek
6th (180th): Jack Malone
7th (195th): Aiden Mcdonough
7th (215th): Arvid Costmar

 

[Cancuks]

I would've taken Caufield, Vlasic and then one of Honka/Kokkonen. Not sure after that.

 

[FireBenningNow]

1st (10th overall): Vasili Podkolzin
2nd (40th): Nils Hoglander
4th (122nd): Rhett Pitlick
5th (133rd): Kiril Slepets
6th (156th): Marshall Warren
6th (175th): William Constantinou
6th (180th): Jake Lee
7th (195th): Valentin Nussbaumer
7th (215th): Michael Gildon

 

[Addison Rae]

1st round: Cole Cauflied (Completely fine with Pod, but had Caufield at 5 or 6)
2nd round: Brett Leason
3rd round: Mikko Kokkonen / Pavel Dorofeyev (no trade)
4th round: Marshall Warren

That's all I'm comfortable with.

 

[Tryforthekingdom]

1st (10th overall): Trade down most likely, grab Kaliyev and Brink
2nd (40th): Nils Hoglander
*3rd (71st): Pavel Dorofeyev, Legare or Puistula would be nice too
4th (122nd): Antti Saarela
5th (133rd): John Malone
6th (156th): Dustin Wolf
6th (175th): Blake Murray
6th (180th): Nikola Pasic
7th (195th): Billy Constantinou
7th (215th): Jet Greaves

Actually going through the draft pick by pick really emphasizes the lack of quality D this year.

 

[Nuckler]

1st round: I think if pod comes over he will be a good fit

2nd: I liked the hoglander pick keep that one

3rd: I would have tried to keep this pick and taken either puistola or fensore really liked both those players I think fensore is gonna surprise some people

4th: would have kept the 102nd pick and taken Huglen which is the player buffalo took with our pick

5th: kallionkieli

6th late pick on constintinou, don't know enough about any other late picks

 

[thefeebster]

1st (10th overall): Matt Boldy
2nd (40th): Matthew Robertson
*3rd (71st): Patrik Puistola*

No trade down for 122+175; Keep 102.
4th (102nd): Aaron Huglen
5th (133rd): Marshall Warren
6th (156th): Arturs Silov
6th (180th): John Malone
7th (195th): Dustin Wolf
7th (215th): Billy Constantinou

Huglen intrigues me a lot, so i didn't want to trade down. I don't usually take Goalies and i went with 2. Silovs did well in the MHL and Wolf, i think is a great option in the 7th round. Constantinou isn't without his warts, but is highly skilled with the puck, so a risk worth taking late.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

I hated the trades, so...

10 - Peyton Krebs c
40 - Vladislav Kolyachonok d
71 - Ronnie Attard d
102 - Michal Teply lw
133 - Marcus Kallionkieli lw
164 - Maxence Guenette d
180 - Blake Murray c
195 - Eric Ciccolini rw

 

[ahmon]

1st (10th overall): Ville Heinola
2nd (40th): Nils Hoglander
3rd (71st): Patrik Puistola

Keep 102
4th (102nd): Tuukka Tieksola
5th (133rd): Josh Nodler
6th (156th): Arturs Silovs
6th (180th): Jack Malone
7th (195th): Kalle Loponen
7th (215th): Valeri Orekhov

 

[VanillaCoke]

1st (10th overall): Cole Caufield
2nd (40th): Yegor Afanasyev
3rd (71st): Pavel Dorofeyev

Also Keep 102
4th (102nd): Aaron Huglen
5th (133rd): Marshall Warren
6th (156th): Patrick Moynihan
6th (180th): Dustin Wolf
7th (195th): Billy Constantinou

[Horse McHindu]

I would have taken Peyton Krebs and Kaeden korcziK.

 

[Josepho]

1st (10th overall): Ville Heinola (Kaliyev was my 2nd choice here)
2nd (40th): Samuel Fagemo (am happy with Hoglander though)
*3rd (71st overall): Patrik Puistola (also liked Attard)*
4th (102nd): Marc Del Gaizo (also liked Spiridonov)
5th (133rd): Jeremy McKenna
6th (156th): Marshall Warren
6th (180th): Jack Malone
7th (195th): Justin Bergeron
7th (215th): Carl Jakobsson

Definitely more vocal about and have seen a lot more of the players I mentioned in the first 4 rounds.

 

[Aqualung]

I don’t know much beyond the 2nd round but I would have taken Boldy and love Hoglander and it would have been close between him and Robertson (probably would go with Hoglander).

10) Vasili Podkolzin
40) Nils Hoglander
71) Pavel Dorofeyev
102) Carter Berger
133) Harrison Blaisdell

7th (195th): Kalle Loponen

[Bojack Horvatman]

The toddler would of picked Boldy this year.

I would of picked Caufield and Korczak with the first two picks, and Honka if we still had a 3rd.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

10. Boldy
40. Fagemo
122. Keppen
133. Loponen
156. Constantniou
175. Malone
180. Costmar
195. Simoneau
215. Gutik

 

[Carl Carlson]

I was hoping we'd grab Caulfield. Hoglander or Grewe for Round 2. Beyond round 2 I can't claim I know enough about the prospects left to make realistic decisions on who I'd take.
