@7th idk if Liljgren or Mittelstadt will be there to pick.
So I'd pick Necas prolly

Some mock drafts have Liligren going top three or four to Jersey or Colorado as they desperately need defence.

Problem is there are not many big name D in the second round so you might be commiting to three forwards in the top 60 picks and not paying attention to your D

Might be an interesting draft where teams go off the board and draft for need with not much confidence in the rankings.

I refer to that site also but find many picks in strange places.
Eg Makar 14th & Mittelstadt 16th

I don't think there are any game changers this year at forward. I think there are nice players but second liners. I would rather the skilled Dman and a big forward like Ratcliffe and go after your Center next year with the first overall and 31 st.

I don't think there are any 'obvious' game changers but you never know.

I don't subscribe to the idea that you must draft a position you haven't drafted yet... Take the BPA. I like Gadjovich in the 2nd because he works hard & provides a ton of net presence.

There absolutely will be, just gotta find em. Did you think Brad Marchand would be a "game changer" when he was drafted third round? Or David Krejci, Schwartz, Tarasenko, Kuznetsov? Or Jamie Benn in the fifth round? There's a kid or two out there you've just gotta put the work into finding him and get a bit lucky.

All these mock drafts have Vegas picking third, which is highly highly unlikely with the lottery the way it is now.

Tippett i can see as a 1st line winger.
Patrick, Mittelstadt 1 C's maybe Necas also.
Vilardi, Glass, Pettersen 2 C's
Makar a PP QB
Top 2-3 D Liljgren Foote
Top 4 D Makar, Hague, Valimaki & possibly a handful of others

You are right but I was referring more to last year you had a clear cut three . McDavids draft you had a clear cut two.

Don't get me wrong I don't think this is a weak draft , I just think there are no obvious choices .
