Community's mock draft - 3rd day

SJ wont be taking a defeseman in round 1.

Very good draft 👍

Rossi

I tought your prospect pool at d was struggling. Your best dman aren't getting younger (Burns, Vlasic, Karlsson), and the dman you pick this year won't probably be ready for another 2-3 years. But I agree that your offensive prospect pool may need more help.

Are their that many people saying Sanderson?

Nobody seems to be against it for now, and he either goes to MTL or maybe at 7 to NJ imo. I had to find a place for him in the top 10.

Our d prospects are where were strong with Merkley, Kniazev and Pasichnuk and even Knyzhov is an nhl level defenseman.

Compared to other NHL teams' D pools, only three with maybe four still needs improvement. To be fair, the sharks' prospect pool all around needs serious help.
They got absolutely destroyed in the Karlsson trade, and that led to this year's slump

They moved forwards prospects in the Karlsson trade. Not D. Forwards are the primary concern in terms of prospects, trust me, i would know as i am an actual sharks fan of 21 years.

fair enough

Still dont see any situation whwre Detroit takes Perfetti at #4. That whole thing is just a smokescreen. It will be either Rossi or Raymond. Then Ottawa will choose between who DET doesnt take of those 2 and Drysdale and Anaheim will take the 3rd.

NJ will grab a winger, if y some miracle Raymond is there they will take him, otherwise they will choose between goal scorers Perfetti and Holtz

Now on to Buffalo, i see no situation where they take Sanderson since hes going to the NCAA for a few years and with Rossi gone Lundell. He just makes far to much sense to me for them to take. NHL ready, defensively sound, high offensive ceiling. Its like the perfect replacement for ROR or like adding a Couturier.
