Prospect Info: Who are your top three wishes for the Devils at #17?

[StevenToddIves]

I thought this would be an interesting idea to gauge who Devils fans want in the first round. For the sake of argument, let's leave out trade possibilities (though Shero has talked of a trade-down) and impossibilities (we'd all love Dahlin and Hughes and Wahlstrom, but it just ain't happening).

My list is:
1)LD K'Andre Miller
2)LD Ty Smith
3)RW Vitali Kravtsov

1. Rasmus Kupari
2. Ty Smith

miller
kupari
kravstov

1. Rasmus Kupari
2. Ty Smith
3. Vitaly Kravtsov

...buuut he is already an excellent defenseman for his age and has legitimate two-way 1D upside. Sorry, had to bang the K'Andre drum yet again, my bad.

 

[RememberTheName]

If they are there:
1. Kravtsov
2. Hayton
3. Smith
Realistic
1. Kupari
2. Bokk
3. Miller
If we trade back
1. Foudy
2. Wise
3. Lundqvist

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

1. Boqvist - He is a predicted to slide. The question is how far. Hopefully he can be this years Liljegren.

2. Trade the pick - This years draft is very even after pick 10. I think i would rather trade the pick for an established player or trade the pick to move down and get an extra pick in the 2nd round.

3. Wilde - One year ago he was a projected top 5 pick. I think he still has the talent of a top 5 pick, it is just inconsistencies in his game has caused his stock to slide around pick 15-20. Perfect for Devils to draft him. I'll back our development team to iron out those inconsistencies.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

1) Ty Smith
2) K’Andre Miller
3) Dominik Bokk

*Farabee would be #1 but I don’t think he falls to 17.

 

[NJ DevLolz]

Pipedream who may fall? Smith

1. Denisenko
2. Kupari
3. Miller

2&3 could switch

 

[GeNeXt]

1. Denisenko
2. Kupari
3. Miller

Same for me, if we're being realistic.

 

[Nubmer6]

I think this poll is flawed.

The better question is "What selection would you be pissed off at for #17?"

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Miller
Kupari
Kravstov

 

[Cheddabombs]

1) Bokk
2) Miller
3) Kupari

Probably a few others that are basically #3 as well, and then a few guys who I'm considering not there at 17 but if they were they'd be on the list (Kravstov and Smith). A tough choice for sure but also a ton of good options.

 

[Bologna 1]

Denisenko
Kupari
Miller

Assuming Kravtsov has no chance of making it to #17 or he is #1

 

[Czech Trio]

I find it difficult to rank F and D together.
F: Kravtsov, Kupari, Dellandrea.
D: Miller, Sandin, Lundkvist.

Stayaways: Noel, Wilde, McLeod.

Worried about the Russian factor with Kravtsov.

 

[Better Call Sal]

I may be one of the few still sold on Wilde. Assuming we stay at 17:

1. Wilde
2. Miller
3. Bokk

 

[PKs Broken Stick]

1. kravtsov
2. bokk
3. kupari

I'm not feeling Miller at 17.

 

[Zippy316]

I'm not going to pretend I know what to look for in prospects and projecting them.

I'd prefer Miller or Wilde just from a need-based perspective, but if Castron goes Kravtsov, Bokk, Denisenko, or Kupari, I would trust they think that forward is above and beyond the defenders.

I do have to say Wilde potentially being able to turn pro right away makes him an interesting pick.

 

[Bleedred]

Kovalchuk
Ryder
Sykora

 

[Darkauron]

Also I feeling there is a high chance we just trade back tbh.
