Description

I wanted to do a mock draft before the WJC start so here it is. Hopefully you guys enjoy the read.

If you don't like the player your team picked let me know why and who you would have preferred.

For those following the draft more closely, who are your favorite prospects so far or a prospect that you find underrated?

Also, let me know if I accidentally left someone off the list there were a ton of names to go through.

TEXTE INTÉGRÉ

Gagnants de la loterie
1. Sharks de San Jose
2. Blackhawks de Chicago
Ronde 1
1. Macklin Celebrini (Sharks de San Jose) (Détails: Obvious pick).
2. Artyom Levshunov (Blackhawks de Chicago) (Détails: Chicago has a TON of LHD prospects but really lacks that top RHD prospect. They get that here. Apparently they are high on Dickinson but I would be really surprised if they took another LHD.).
3. Ivan Demidov (Ducks d'Anaheim) (Détails: Anaheim could really use a RHD in this draft but I don't think they reach on either Parekh or Yakemchuk at this pick. Demidov would make an already great young forward core for Anaheim even better.).
4. Cayden Lindstrom (Blue Jackets de Columbus) (Détails: Columbus has pretty much everything you could want prospect wise. So here they take a player with some of the biggest upside in the draft and hope he ends up as their 2C behind Fantilli.).
5. Berkly Catton (Canadiens de Montréal) (Détails: Catton is a perfect fit for Montreal and would be a great fit behind Suzuki. Hopefully teams won't be stupid and let Catton fall because of his size like they did with Benson last year.).
6. Anton Silayev (Coyotes de l'Arizona) (Détails: Arizona, now Utah, loves their big players and they get a freakishly big defender here. In my rankings Silayev has the highest upside of any player in this draft.).
7. Zayne Parekh (Sénateurs d'Ottawa) (Détails: I personally am not a fan of Parekh but he does have electric offensive ability and Ottawa desperately needs a RHD. Parekh and Sanderson could form a deadly combo.).
8. Zeev Buium (Kraken de Seattle) (Détails: I compare Buium to Vince Dunn so it's fitting that he ends up here. Buium has had an incredible season in the NCAA and it wouldn't surprise me at all if he goes higher than this.).
9. Sam Dickinson (Flames de Calgary) (Détails: I know I know everyone is going to say if Iginla is here the Flames won't pass on him but what's more valuable a top 4 winger or a top 4 dman. Dickinson is one of the more NHL ready players in this draft and will likely end up as a Hanifin like player, and the Flames just opened up a Hanifin sized gap on their defense.).
10. Michael Brandsegg-Nygård (Devils du New Jersey) (Détails: I thought about taking Yakemchuk here but with Hamiltons contract running for another 4 years and Nemec emerging as a potential star, New Jersey really doesn't have a need for a dman. Here, they get some sandpaper for their lineup and add a player who will show up in big moments and plays hard. Nygard would be a great compliment for the more skilled players in New Jersey.).
11. Carter Yakemchuk (Sabres de Buffalo) (Détails: Buffalo does NOT need any more forward prospects. They do need a future top 4 RHD so they go with the best one available.).
12. Tij Iginla (Flyers de Philadelphie) (Détails: The flyers are happy that Iginla dropped to them. I question Iginlas work ethic at times and a lot of times I've seen him play he's floating, but other times he shows amazing skill. It also could've just been a bad few games that I saw.).
13. Igor Chernyshov (Wild du Minnesota) (Détails: Chernyshov is a jack of all trades, master of none type player. He does everything good to very good but isn't great in one area. He's one of the more complete players in this draft and one of my favorites. I think he would fit in great with Minnesota.).
14. Cole Eiserman (Sharks de San Jose from Penguins de Pittsburgh) (Détails: I am not a fan of Eiserman but he does have an undeniable scoring talent. He could easily be a 40 goal scorer in the NHL if he wants to. San Jose can afford to take a risk on him and bet on his massive upside.).
15. Konsta Helenius (Red Wings de Detroit) (Détails: A perfect Yzerman pick and Helenius would be a great pickup for Detroit here. One note, I wouldn't be surprised if Helenius moves to the wing in the future.).
16. Charlie Elick (Capitals de Washington) (Détails: St. Louis - The Blues need to go RHD here. I am more high on Elick than I am on Jiricek and I think others will become higher on Elick after he participates in the WJC tournament soon.).
17. Liam Greentree (Blues de St-Louis) (Détails: Washington - A nice blend of size and strength and would be a perfect compliment for Cristall in the future.).
18. Michael Hage (Islanders de New York) (Détails: The Islanders get their long term 2C.).
19. Alfons Freij (Golden Knights de Vegas) (Détails: I feel like Freij is another player who will move up after the WJC and seems like a nice pick for Vegas. Whoever Vegas takes will likely be traded anyway.).
20. Trevor Connelly (Blackhawks de Chicago from Lightning de Tampa Bay) (Détails: Connelly will likely slip on draft day due to off ice issues and size concerns. Does Chicago take him with those off ice concerns, probably not but the idea of Bedard and Connelly together is too good to pass up. I also believe his off ice concerns have been addressed.).
21. Sacha Boisvert (Kings de Los Angeles) (Détails: LA keeps on drafting centers, it's worked out well for them so far.).
22. Adam Jiricek (Predators de Nashville) (Détails: Jiricek came into the year as a top 10 pick but lots of injuries and poor play will drop him. All it takes is one team to take a chance on him though. Jiricek needs to add a lot of weight and that will solve most of his problems.).
23. Andrew Basha (Maple Leafs de Toronto) (Détails: Toronto gets a speedy winger on a slight reach.).
24. EJ Emery (Ducks d'Anaheim from Oilers d'Edmonton) (Détails: The Ducks get their future Gudas replacement.).
25. Teddy Stiga (Avalanche du Colorado) (Détails: Colorado gets one of the better defensive players in this draft and also one of the better skaters. This pick could turn into a steal.).
26. Terik Parascak (Sénateurs d'Ottawa from Bruins de Boston) (Détails: Parascak will fall the same way Heidt fell last year. I think Ottawa puts an end to that fall.).
27. Emil Hemming (Flames de Calgary from Canucks de Vancouver) (Détails: Hemming is a very good complimentary player. I don't think he will ever be great but he could be a solid middle 6 option.).
28. Aron Kiviharju (Flyers de Philadelphie from Panthers de la Floride) (Détails: Kiviharju has a ton of potential and the Flyers can't afford to pass that up. His injury history and size are major concerns but the Flyers can afford to take the risk with their extra picks.).
29. Nikita Artamonov (Canadiens de Montréal from Jets de Winnipeg) (Détails: One of the better playmakers in this draft and putting up great production in the KHL, Montreal gets a steal here.).
30. Leo Sahlin Wallenius (Hurricanes de la Caroline) (Détails: Seems like a Carolina pick. One of the better puck moving dmen in the draft.).
31. Kamil Bednarik (Stars de Dallas) (Détails: Solid bottom 6, defensive center in the future.).
32. Lucas Pettersson (Rangers de New York) (Détails: A great defensive player with a questionable offensive ceiling.).

Ronde 2
33. Colton Roberts (Sharks de San Jose) (Détails: Really underrated player here. San Jose gets a future top 4 RHD.).
34. Cole Hutson (Blackhawks de Chicago) (Détails: Chicago gets a great puck mover and top PP quarterback in the future.).
35. Henry Mews (Ducks d'Anaheim) (Détails: Anaheim replaces the loss of Drysdale with Mews.).
36. Jesse Pulkkinen (Flyers de Philadelphie from Blue Jackets de Columbus) (Détails: One of the more NHL ready prospects as an overager, Philly probably gets another steal here.).
37. Matvei Shuravin (Jets de Winnipeg from Canadiens de Montréal) (Détails: One of my favorite players in the draft, I think Shuravin falls because of his poor production but he has the talent to be a really great player.).
38. Adam Jecho (Coyotes de l'Arizona) (Détails: Big power forward that will likely be overdrafted.).
39. Matvei Gridin (Sénateurs d'Ottawa) (Détails: One of the better players in the USHL and he should develop nicely going to Michigan.).
40. Tanner Howe (Kraken de Seattle) (Détails: Howe performed better with Bedard but I still think he has the makings of a future middle 6 center, likely on the 3rd line. He could slot in behind Wright and Beniers).
41. Lukas Fischer (Flames de Calgary) (Détails: A rare blend of size, speed, and skill, Fischer has all the traits of a top 4 defender and just needs to put them together.).
42. Sam O'Reilly (Sharks de San Jose from Devils du New Jersey) (Détails: The sharks get a really versatile forward here who can pretty much do a bit of everything.).
43. Dominik Badinka (Sabres de Buffalo) (Détails: Buffalo doubles down on RHD.).
44. Maxim Massé (Penguins de Pittsburgh from Flyers de Philadelphie) (Détails: Needs to improve a lot especially his strength and skating but he could be a future top 6 player. High upside pick.).
45. Ben Danford (Wild du Minnesota) (Détails: Big RHD with a lot of potential. He's already really solid defensively and his offensive game continues to get better.).
46. Beckett Sennecke (Penguins de Pittsburgh) (Détails: A really solid all around player with a high floor.).
47. Alexander Zetterberg (Red Wings de Detroit) (Détails: How cool would it be for Detroit to have another Zetterberg.).
0. Dean Letourneau (Coyotes de l'Arizona from Capitals de Washington) (Détails: An absolutely massive Center who has equally massive upside goes to Utah here. I haven't seen Dean play but from what I've heard he is very much a boom or bust prospect.).
49. Will Skahan (Blues de St-Louis) (Détails: The Blues get one of the better defensive dmen in this draft. Ideally Skahan could play with Parayko in a few years when he is ready to join the team or he could form an amazing pair with Elick.).
50. Cole Beaudoin (Islanders de New York) (Détails: A true power forward who could become even scarier as he develops. At least a bottom 6 player with the potential for more.).
51. Spencer Gill (Flyers de Philadelphie) (Détails: Underrated RHD who has a solid defensive game and is developing well offensively.).
0. Noel Fransen (Capitals de Washington from Golden Knights de Vegas) (Détails: Another really underrated dman who will likely move up draft boards after the WJC.).
0. Marek Vanacker (Predators de Nashville from Lightning de Tampa Bay) (Détails: A really solid 2 way winger who isn't afraid to get physical. If he can put on some more weight he could be a legit option in a teams middle 6.).
54. Adam Kleber (Blackhawks de Chicago from Kings de Los Angeles) (Détails: Kleber has the ideal size and hand combo that Chicago will look for. Him and the Levshunov pick solidify the future right side of Chicago defense.).
55. Harrison Brunicke (Predators de Nashville) (Détails: Really high upside RHD, but at the same time has a really low floor. Seems like a pick Trotz would make.).
56. Yegor Surin (Blues de St-Louis from Maple Leafs de Toronto) (Détails: The Blues get a bulldog here. Surin reminds me a lot of Barbashev. He would provide the Blues with a great 3C behind Thomas and Dvorsky.).
57. Julius Miettinen (Oilers d'Edmonton) (Détails: Solid middle 6 center potential.).
58. Linus Eriksson (Canadiens de Montréal from Avalanche du Colorado) (Détails: Good defensive center in the mold of Backlund.).
59. Melvin Fernström (Ducks d'Anaheim from Bruins de Boston) (Détails: Another player who's better at defense than offense.).
60. Christian Humphreys (Blackhawks de Chicago from Canucks de Vancouver) (Détails: A player that really pops when I watch him and I think is underrated. Humphreys is a solid playmaker and jack of all trades type player. His production is concerning though.).
61. Ryder Ritchie (Coyotes de l'Arizona from Panthers de la Floride) (Détails: I'm really not a fan of Ritchie from what I've seen but a lot of people have him in the first round so the Utah goes BPA).
62. Jett Luchanko (Predators de Nashville from Jets de Winnipeg) (Détails: Solid bottom 6 center option in the future.).
63. Luca Marrelli (Hurricanes de la Caroline) (Détails: Solid 2 way RHD with upside.).
64. Luke Misa (Flames de Calgary from Stars de Dallas) (Détails: Potential middle 6 center in the future. Needs to add strength and improve his shot.).
0. Ondrej Becher (Kraken de Seattle from Rangers de New York) (Détails: Seattle has had great success with overagers in the pass and they go with one of the best in this draft.).

This has to be almost worst case scenario for the Flames. Lindstrom and Catton both go just before all the teams that need D men. That leaves us with a D man that is very good, but not a need. Worst case scenario is Iginla going before us too.

I watched Ritchie a few games in the playoffs, he didn't impress me very much. Didn't really notice him out there and even playing a very good team, I expected more from what was expected to be a first round talent.
I don't mind the Detroit pick. I'm at a toss up between a bunch of players around that spot. Ideally would love Catton but no way does he get to us.

Losing out on Catton would suck but at the same time if Dickinson falls to Calgary he's simply too good to pass up and I think they would be happy with that pick. I still wouldn't be surprised if they took Iginla over Dickinson in this scenario but I think that would be a mistake.

They're keeping the same front office for now which is smart.

I agree I just don't see anything overall that impresses me when it comes to Ritchie. I won't have him ranked in my top 64 unless something big changes.

Catton would be perfect for Detroit but I would be shocked if he fell that far. Then again, it happens every year with small guys and teams never learn, just look at Benson.
