Due to where we fiished in the season, we will be drafting 24th.

Minnesota will draft first overall followed by Philly, Colorado, Buffalo and then Vancouver to round out the top 5.

1st round pick - Aleksi Saarela - C - Finland. (Saarela is a great puckhandling center that has good vision and can spot the open man. We are expecting big things from him in the future)

3rd Round pick - Robin Steenssens - RD - Germany (Steenssens game is a passing one but he is a good physical defensman and will be good for tough play later in his career)

6th Round Pick - Luka Kraigher - LD - Russia (A borderline prospect isn't a standout in any part of the game but is average and capable in all areas)

7th Round Pick - Pablo De Gottardi - LW - Swiss (Long shot to make the NHL, De Gottardi is a small, quick forward but needs to work on his overall game to make it all the way)

Minnesota took Connor McDavid first overall, not surprising and Philly took Jack Eichel 2nd.
