Personally, I'd go hard for Simon Robertsson out of that remaining crop. I have him at the edge of my personal top ten. Incredibly intelligent player that IMO is undervalued because of the lack of ice time usually given to teenagers in the SHL. Just for transparency, this is my personal top-ten:

1. Beniers
2. Eklund
3. Lysell
4. Clarke
5. Wallstedt
6. Hughes
7. Power
8. Johnson
9. Raty
10. Robertsson

For reference, Board choices in 5 previous board mock drafts like this.

2016: Bellows, Rubstov
2017: E. Pettersson
2018: duh, Svech
2019: Dorofeyev
2020: Askarov

I’m leaning towards Behrens. Although I don’t know a ton about these prospects, I do know that Zellweger is the last guy I’d pick.

 

[HisIceness]

Voted Zach Dean but that's because of his name.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I’m leaning towards Behrens. Although I don’t know a ton about these prospects, I do know that Zellweger is the last guy I’d pick.

But what if he completes us?

 

[Chrispy]

I have a feeling Dundon will look at recent history in the NHL and he will be insisting on arguments against Logan Stankoven that do not mention his size.

They could still take Robertson, who scouts say has a good shot as well. But i think Dundon sees an opportunity to get great talent because he’s small and will push for it.

I love Stankoven, too, but I think that you are underrating Robertsson like a lot of folks are. Many are pegging him as this low ceiling-high floor guy, but I see it as the opposite. He's got the intelligence on both sides of the ice to play a top-6 role in the NHL IMO, but the question is if his level of play translates to SHL stats next season, not dissimilar to Lysell (though they're VERY different players).

Then Show Him the Moneeeeeeeyyyyy!

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Stankoven!

on name alone

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

I want Stankoven based on his name alone

Stankoven!

Hey, these are honest takes. I respect it.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

rankings are all over the place for guys like Robertsson, Lysell, etc. its hard to say who is the best option. Stankoven is my pick but dobber prospects loves Robertsson.

if we had another 1st or a high 2nd pick, I would take a chance on L’Heureux. That guy has handles, grit and a shot.

 

[SlavinAway]

I went Robertsson as it was the only remaining name left I recognized...

My good Twitter DM buddy Will Scouch should convince you to go Robertsson:

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Like bleed has been saying for a while, this low in the draft I don’t really recognize anybody. It’s just a list of names.
So my logic is to pick the best name. And since Chaz Lucius is off the board, Stankoven wins by default.

LOL IDK. I find the Germanic double "ss" in Robertsson to be pretty cool, too, if we're going by that metric.

My favorite name in the draft, though, is possible late rounder Bennet Roßmy. You won't see many names out there with the German eszett in it.

[Navin R Slavin]

I picked the Finn from Karpat, because, well, you know

He’d be ideal if they actually let him put ß on his nameplate. I’m now picturing some half drunk guy with a real thick southern accent asking “what kinda name is Robmy anyway?”

I mean, in the long shot that he ever made it as an NHLer, they probably would if Lafrenière is allowed the accent grave on his jersey.

 

[GoldiFox]

Stankoven has been called a bowling ball who fearlessly attacks the slot as well as "superhuman" offensively. He has dropped due to size and we all know what Dundon feels on that account.

I'd go Stankoven or L'Heureux (Rees 2.0). Othmann, Svozil, and Olausson are three others in the Canes wheelhouse. Koivunen looks like a potential Aho, I'd be pumped if they picked him that high.

 

[Lempo]

due to size and we all know what Dundon feels on that account.

He's from Texas, isn't he?

 

[Tryamw]

(Not Serious) I'd choose me I could use the signing bonus

 

[VibesAlive]

Ha, you read my mind. Reading down the list and then saw a Finn playing for team Karpat, I mean, it was a no-brainer! That, and I don't know shit about any of these players.
