|---|
| 1 |  | - | Easy | |
| 2 |  | - | I know a lot of Hawks fans will be upset if it's not Demidov, but Levshunov is straight up the most complete D prospect I've seen come through the draft since Dahlin IMO, and with them likely being a bottom feeder again next year + the way the market typically works they'll get more than their fair share of chances to address forward long term | |
| 3 |  | - | Been my semi-bold prediction since April and I stand by it. Yakemchuk to the Ducks just makes sense to me here | |
| 4 |  | - | I've seen a lot of theories about where Demidov will end up, but with CLB strong Russian environment and no clear lack in their organizational depth charts, going BPA to hopefully land a superstar strikes me as the right play here | |
| 5 |  | - | Another somewhat surprising pick here, Montreal is a team that has never been afraid to just go for their guy, and with Sennecke being a good stylistic fit and his stock skyrocketing I think this is where he ends up draft day | |
| 6 |  | - | Ideally I think Utah might prefer to land a player with more clear PP1 upside with this selection, but if the board shakes out this way come draft day I have a hard time seeing them say no to a unicorn of a prospect like Silayev. | |
| 7 |  | - | I think if Dickinson is here that Philly will trade for this pick, but for the sake of this exercise I think Parekh should be the clear choice here | |
| 8 |  | - | Seattle should 100% take the swing on a defender here, and if Dickinson happens to be on the board still at this point I think he fits like a glove with the sort of defenseman Seattle has seemed to prefer early on in their existence | |
| 9 |  | - | The Iginla debate is going to dominate this pick, but I truly don't see any way Calgary could justify passing on Lindstrom if he slips this far | |
| 10 |  | - | Kind of similar dilemma that I think Utah will have with their pick, I think NJ would probably prefer to go forward here in a perfect World, but I don't see them allowing a talent like Buium to slide past them if he is sitting there at 10 | |
| 11 |  | - | I think this pick is traded before draft day, but with the board playing out this way I think landing a very projectible forward with high upside and a bit more physical tools than some of their other forward prospects would make sense for Buffalo here | |
| 12 |  | - | This will strictly be a debate between Helenius and Catton should the board play out this way up to this point. Ultimately, I think the choice will be Helenius due to there being more certainty regarding his ability to stick at Center long term in the NHL | |
| 13 |  | - | I don't like the idea of Minnesota preferring a safer D here like a lot of people seem to think. I also don't see Catton being the pick due to their apparent desire to get bigger, so instead they go with the next best available Center who I think had a stronger finish to his DY than he often gets credit for | |
| 14 | |  | With how mega-stupid loaded they are at forward at this point, I think taking a hyper-physical D who is a late risers a solid pick here for the Sharks | |
| 15 |  | - | This is Catton's absolute floor, period. Detroit with the steal of the first round | |
| 16 |  | - | I think Emery will go a bit higher than a lot of people might think on draft day. Given his excellent defensive play, great toolkit, and room to grow his game with the puck on his stick, this strikes me as a great pick for the Blues | |
| 17 |  | - | Given that Washington has primarily swung on forwards in recent memory and has a somewhat lacking D prospect pool, I think they're happy to add a guy whose stock dropped a bit this year but who still has top-pair upside in Jiricek | |
| 18 | |  | After making a difficult decision to go D at 2, the Hawks would be ecstatic to land a forward with as high of a ceiling as Eiserman does at 18. I also believe the fact that there's a clear path to an NHL job as early as 2025 makes them more comfortable about the NCAA factor here | |
| 19 |  | - | Vegas lives and dies by a simple philosophy: play good hockey or get out. I think they have no issue taking the clear BPA here despite some of the other smoke around this player. | |
| 20 | |  | With the Russian factor starting to feel less and less important, why wouldn't NYI go for a forward with a toolkit as tempting as Chernyshov's here? | |
| 21 |  | - | Another guy whose stock has skyrocketed leading up to the draft, I think landing a smart 200-foot Center in Luchanko is a solid add for the Kings here. Could maybe see them reaching on a D if someone is there who they really like here | |
| 22 |  | - | For a team that has openly stated that the draft should be a place for big swings, I could see them having the balls to take a winger as small as Stiga here. The statistical profile isn't the greatest but it's impossible to watch this guy play and not notice him every single second he's on the ice. If he hits I think he has the highest ceiling of any forward taking outside of the top-20 left in this draft. | |
| 23 |  | - | I feel like the Leafs have been chasing the idea of a big, physical blue line for a short eternity now, and with this pick they finally decide to start attempting to grow those types of players in house | |
| 24 |  | - | I see a World where after a somewhat underwhelming men's WC paired with other teams simply having different needs that MBN could slip. Colorado would be more than happy to take a guy as close to being NHL ready as he is with this pick | |
| 25 | |  | A big, high character, high motor Center feels like a match made in heaven for what the Sens should probably want out of this pick | |
| 26 | |  | Honestly, you could copy and paste the pick 25 description here | |
| 27 |  | - | Carolina gets a steal here as they always seem to do. Must be nice to root for a franchise that understands the concept of listening to numbers as well as they do... | |
| 28 | |  | I think Greentree falls a bit come draft day, and I don't see the flames having any issues adding another big forward with high offensive upside at this pick | |
| 29 |  | - | I think a lot of teams will overanalyze Parascak, but the reality is you have to be a damn good player to score the way here did last season, and the Stars won't hesitate to take him as late as 29 | |
| 30 |  | - | I'm not really sure what the Rangers are going to try to do with this pick but I think the goal will be to add a player who brings elements they're currently lacking in. Adding a unicorn of a player in Letourneau seems like a good fit here | |
| 31 | |  | I view it more likely that they double down on another Center here than anything else. | |
| 32 | |  | Anaheim closes out the first round by adding another big RHD into the pool, turning a position of weakness into a position of strength in 1 night |
