Ik I said I would make this draft day, but ima just make it now.​

1. :sabres selects Rasmus Dahlin D Frolunda HC (SHL)

Yeah, shocker!

2. :canes selects Andrei Svechinkov RW Barrie Colts (OHL)

Pretty sure Carolina confirmed that they were gonna select him, so another easy one.

3. :habs selects Jesperi Kotkaniemi C Assat (Liiga)

That's right I fell into the hype, but this is purely because this seems like the move that Montreal is gonna make, if I were the GM of Montreal I would most certainly not make this move. Although I'm a fan of Kotkaniemi, I just don't like the fact he's going to Montreal, I don't want another Galchenyuk where's there's constant trade rumors, etc. I hope he can succeed in the situation, but I just don't trust the Habs management.

4. :sens selects Filip Zadina RW Halifax Mooseheads (QMJHL)

Ottawa is able to grab the 2nd best forward in the draft IMO. Great hands, speed, scoring ability, great prospect for the Sens.

5. :coyotes selects Brady Tkachuk LW Boston Univ. (NCAA)

The Yotes get their former captain's son. Just too good of a story to passup, and also a bruising winger with good passing ability is not a bad choice.

6. :wings selects Noah Dobson D Acadie-Bathurst Titan (QMJHL)

The Red Wings are drafting a right-handed defense-man no matter what, and if they don't, then Ken Holland should be fired. (well maybe if they select Wahlstrom I'll be okay w/ it)

7. :nucks selects Quinn Hughes D Univ. of Michigan (NCAA)

I think no matter what Hughes will be a Canuck, I think for the past 3 mock drafts I had him going to Vancouver. Just a solid offensive defense-man and is arguably the 2nd best defense-man in the draft.

8. :hawks selects Oliver Wahlstrom RW U.S National U18 Team (USHL)

A dark horse to become one of the best prospects to come out of this draft IMO, and going to Chicago could probably help too, if he plays on a line w/ Kane or Toews that could definitely help him to dominate in this league.

9. :rangers selects Evan Bouchard D London Knights (OHL)

After trading McDonut, the Rangers need to stock up on some defense-man prospects in order to retool that defense, especially if their able to sign a Kovalchuk, or some of the other top forwards in the free agency class. But yeah, draft defense-man.

10. :edmonton selects Joel Farabee LW U.S National U18 Team (USHL)

I do like Farabee. And imagining him playing alongside McDavid or Draisaitl would be amazing, a very underrated winger in this draft.

11. :isles selects Adam Boqvist D Brynas IF (SHL)

12. (CGY) :isles selects Joe Veleno C Drummondville Voltigeurs (QMJHL)

13. :starsselects Barrett Hayton C Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds (OHL)

14. (STL) :flyers selects Vitali Kravtsov RW Traktor Chelyabinsk (KHL)

15. :panthers selects Ty Smith D Spokane Chiefs (WHL)

16. :avs selects Rasmus Kupari C Karpat (Liiga)

17. :devils selects Rasmus Sandin D Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds (OHL)

18. :cbj selects Isac Lundestrom C Lulea HF (SHL)

19. :flyers selects Grigori Denisenko LW Loko Yaroslavl (MHL)

20. :kings selects Bode Wilde D U.S National U18 Team (USHL)

21. :sharks selects Dominik Bokk LW Vaxjo Lakers (SHL)

22. (PIT) :sens selects Mattias Samuelsson D U.S National U18 Team (USHL)

23. :ducks2 selects K'Andre Miller D U.S National U18 Team (USHL)

24. :wild selects Martin Kaut RW HC Dynamo Pardubice (Czech.)

25. :leafs selects Akil Thomas C Niagara Ice Dogs (OHL)

26. (BOS) :rangers selects Serron Noel RW Oshawa General (OHL)

27. (NSH) :hawks selects Nils Lundkvist D Lulea HF (SHL)

28. (WPG) :bluesselects Alexander Alexeyev D Red Deer Rebels (WHL)

29. (TBL) :rangers selects Jared McIsaac D Halifax Mooseheads (QMJHL)

30. (VGK) :wings selects Jonaten Berggren RW Skellefteå AIK (SHL)

31. :caps selects Jett WOO D Moose Jaw Warriors (WHL)

I went 6/31 last year so hopefully I can improve this year!

Flyers trying to be the Red Wings of the 90s/early 2000s with 2 Russians. I love Kravstov and im not sold on Denisenko but they need skill and speed on the wings. I would prefer Kaut/Berggren at 19 and I think they might trade down with 19. Another great mock
