1 | ![Sharks de San Jose Logo de Sharks de San Jose](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/san_jose_sharks.svg) | - | | Easiest Pick in Franchise History. |
2 | ![Blackhawks de Chicago Logo de Blackhawks de Chicago](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/chicago_blackhawks.svg) | - | | Chicago shocks the NHL here with a pick that not many expected. Outside Bob Mckenize that is. The Hawks get Bedard some much needed size and strength. |
3 | ![Ducks d'Anaheim Logo de Ducks d'Anaheim](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/anaheim_ducks.svg) | - | | This selection is one of the harder ones now that both Levshunov and Demidov are here. Both are positions of need, but Demidov has one of the highest ceilings in the draft and they load up their offense for years to come getting someone that will be the top line RW next to Carlsson and McTavish. |
4 | ![Blue Jackets de Columbus Logo de Blue Jackets de Columbus](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/columbus_blue_jackets.svg) | - | | Columbus becomes a very lucky team that strikes gold yet again in back to back drafts. Levshunov falls right into their laps and this allows them to build an incredible D-core for the future. With this selection they may end up trading Jiricek to get Fantilli some potent talent to play with. Levshunov is certainly the higher talent between himself and jiricek. |
5 | ![Canadiens de Montréal Logo de Canadiens de Montréal](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/montreal_canadiens.svg) | - | | The Habs address two needs with one pick. They get some more much needed size and they add someone that can fill in behind Suzuki as the 2c. |
6 | ![Utah Hockey Club Logo de Utah Hockey Club](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/utah_hockey_club.svg) | - | | Utah, welcome to the NHL take your pick of either LHD or RHD that will all be top 4 defenseman in the near future.
Utah selects a kid that is already playing in the mid-west and has all the talent to become a teams No. 1 defenseman. |
7 | ![Sénateurs d'Ottawa Logo de Sénateurs d'Ottawa](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/ottawa_senators_21.svg) | - | | RHD is a position that could be stronger for the Sens and Parekh has a similar style to Karlsson, could very well be their second coming of EK65. Sanderson's long term d-partner for the future and sorta hometown kid. |
8 | ![Kraken de Seattle Logo de Kraken de Seattle](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/seattle_kraken.svg) | - | | The Kraken have their choice between Dickinson and Yakemchuk. They go with the RHD here as they are harder to come across with Elite talent and the have some good LHD prospects in the pool. |
9 | ![Flames de Calgary Logo de Flames de Calgary](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/calgary_flames.svg) | - | | Its the only correct answer here. The Flames need help at every position and Iginla is the son of their biggest legend. It is a perfect fit. |
10 | ![Devils du New Jersey Logo de Devils du New Jersey](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/new_jersey_devils.svg) | - | | Devils fans get a good one with the falling of Sam Dickinson. Their D-core will be the best in the league in 4-5 years with Dickinson, Nemec, Hughes and Bahl. |
11 | ![Sabres de Buffalo Logo de Sabres de Buffalo](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/buffalo_sabres_21.svg) | - | | The Sabres go for the biggest riser in Sennecke. They certainly could use more highly skilled wingers with their captain leaving for Florida and Skinner probably not returning when that contract is up. Buffalo will have an amazing team for the next ten years once they learn how to play proper team defense. |
12 | ![Flyers de Philadelphie Logo de Flyers de Philadelphie](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/philadelphia_flyers.svg) | - | | Briere gets his wish of a good Center falling to him in the draft. The perfect center product to pair up with Michkov. Catton has skill pouring out of his ears and will be a natural fit along side the Flyers' superstar. |
13 | ![Wild du Minnesota Logo de Wild du Minnesota](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/minnesota_wild.svg) | - | | The wild need some more offense and they take the guy who brings it. Parascak has proven he is an offensive machine at every level and will bring some more firepower to a wild team that needs help in that department. |
14 | ![Sharks de San Jose Logo de Sharks de San Jose](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/san_jose_sharks.svg) | ![Penguins de Pittsburgh Logo de Penguins de Pittsburgh](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/pittsburgh_penguins.svg) | | The Sharks already hit Gold this draft and now they hit oil. Connelly has the talent to be a top 5 selection hands down, the off ice stuff has been addressed and taken care of and he is ready to turn a new leaf with the Sharks. Can you imagine the potential line of Connelly-Celebrini-Smith. In 3-4 years it would be one of the best lines in hockey. |
15 | ![Red Wings de Detroit Logo de Red Wings de Detroit](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/detroit_red_wings.svg) | - | | Yzerman goes with Eiserman.
Stevie-Y knows that goals do not grow on trees and he has had luck drafting goal scorers in the past. Eiserman can score and the rest can be taught for his game, Detroit gets a good one halfway through the first round. |
16 | ![Blues de St-Louis Logo de Blues de St-Louis](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/st_louis_blues.svg) | - | | The Blues go with the team need at RHD and get the Brother of the previously mentioned Jiricek. Maybe even making a deal with Columbus to get David as well, sending over someone like Snuggerud or Dvorsky to get some brotherly chemistry on the team. |
17 | ![Capitals de Washington Logo de Capitals de Washington](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/washington_capitals.svg) | - | | The Capitals take one of the most NHL ready prospects in the draft. Maybe not the highest ceiling but he will come over and give you a strong 200 foot game right away. Additionally, the Caps could use some NHL ready talent. |
18 | ![Blackhawks de Chicago Logo de Blackhawks de Chicago](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/chicago_blackhawks.svg) | ![Islanders de New York Logo de Islanders de New York](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/new_york_islanders.svg) | | The Hawks addressed their future Franchsie D-man in the beginning of the draft and now they go out to get someone that can play with Bedard. A magician with the puck that will get Bedard more opportunities to score should not be passed up. |
19 | ![Golden Knights de Vegas Logo de Golden Knights de Vegas](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/vegas_golden_knights.svg) | - | | Vegas takes a strong 2 way center whom they will most likely trade at the deadline so its a wash. |
20 | ![Islanders de New York Logo de Islanders de New York](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/new_york_islanders.svg) | ![Lightning de Tampa Bay Logo de Lightning de Tampa Bay](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/tampa_bay_lightning.svg) | | After moving back to gain some more draft capital the Islanders take a kid that reminds me of Tom Wilson. Offensively gifted and uses his body to punish people. If he pans out anything like Wilson the Islanders get a steal at 20th with Greentree. |
21 | ![Kings de Los Angeles Logo de Kings de Los Angeles](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/los_angeles_kings.svg) | - | | The Kings are in need of adding some Wingers to their prospect pool. Chernyshov is a big body that plays a hard game and is already playing against men in the KHL. On top of that he has a nose for the net and can get the team some scrappy goals. |
22 | ![Predators de Nashville Logo de Predators de Nashville](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/nashville_predators.svg) | - | | Trotz is back to swinging big and gets a great power forward in MBN. I have him way higher on my list but this is a steal and a half for the new Preds regime. |
23 | ![Maple Leafs de Toronto Logo de Maple Leafs de Toronto](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/toronto_maple_leafs.svg) | - | | Toronto needs some more RHD prospects outside of Topi Niemela. Emery has been a big riser as of late and could end up shooting himself into the top 20. Toronto adds to their biggest need outside of goaltending. |
24 | ![Avalanche du Colorado Logo de Avalanche du Colorado](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/colorado_avalanche.svg) | - | | Colorado goes for a bit of a stretch and grabs the big 6'5" centerman that moves well for his size and age. He has time to grow as the Avs are still pushing for more cups with the current roster and he will be a nice addition in 3 years or so. |
25 | ![Sénateurs d'Ottawa Logo de Sénateurs d'Ottawa](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/ottawa_senators_21.svg) | ![Bruins de Boston Logo de Bruins de Boston](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/boston_bruins.svg) | | Ottawa gets a solid RW prospect that is a year or so away from being ready to make an impact. A great selection for a late first rounder. |
26 | ![Canadiens de Montréal Logo de Canadiens de Montréal](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/montreal_canadiens.svg) | ![Jets de Winnipeg Logo de Jets de Winnipeg](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/winnipeg_jets.svg) | | The Habs are thrilled to grab Basha as he slips nearly ten spots from where most people have him. After getting a solid 2c they nail it getting him someone that could be his winger in the near future. |
27 | ![Hurricanes de la Caroline Logo de Hurricanes de la Caroline](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/carolina_hurricanes.svg) | - | | Carolina addresses a need they have at the moment getting a guy who projects as their 2c in a few years. They need a solid 2c more than anything at the moment and this could be the answer. |
28 | ![Flames de Calgary Logo de Flames de Calgary](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/calgary_flames.svg) | ![Canucks de Vancouver Logo de Canucks de Vancouver](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/vancouver_canucks.svg) | | The Flames could take anyone at the moment, they go out and get an extremely talented puck moving defenseman that showed he can be Elite at the college level. |
29 | ![Ducks d'Anaheim Logo de Ducks d'Anaheim](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/anaheim_ducks.svg) | ![Oilers d'Edmonton Logo de Oilers d'Edmonton](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/edmonton_oilers.svg) | | The Ducks have already got their RW1 for the future and now they go out and get an explosive offensive RHD that will grow into a position to replace Drysdale. |
30 | ![Flyers de Philadelphie Logo de Flyers de Philadelphie](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/philadelphia_flyers.svg) | ![Panthers de la Floride Logo de Panthers de la Floride](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/florida_panthers.svg) | | The Flyers draft the countryman of Michkov in Surin, Doubling up on Centers and getting someone that plays the Philly style of hockey. Gritty and in your face. The perfect person to free up some ice for his teammates and get in on the action. |
31 | ![Stars de Dallas Logo de Stars de Dallas](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/dallas_stars.svg) | - | | The Stars take Hage as they have no real weak spots and can take BPA. Their scouts say he is BPA and that is that. |
32 | ![Rangers de New York Logo de Rangers de New York](https://cdn2.capfriendly.com/images/logos/new_york_rangers.svg) | - | | The Blueshirts add a RW to their prospect pool. A position of need with Kakko and Laf their only true good young RWs. |
