Oh I think there is but you'll see someone like Schwartz or Tarasenko pop out in five years or less.

For me...

a) Glass

b) Mittlestadt

Their depth on D prospects is bad.

True! They usually do

But aren't the odds technically better that one of the bottom three will get a top 3 than the rest of the bottom 15?
- Retinalz

Odds 2/3 you drop. Only get a better weighted percentage from 17 down to 31. Why tanking as a plan for bottom 3 is 4-6th.

Ya they need a center prospect badly.

- LeftCoaster

I dont think he gets past 3. If you look at rankings and needs its a no brainer he ends up on the stars.

I think picks will be moved so teams can go up and down. I wouldnt doubt if 2 trades were made in the top 10 to posture for Dmen.

Hopefully Benning says he is going Dman and then can force a buffalo or Arizona to move up.

So do you think they possibly trade down and take Foote then? Some fans want him,but he's projects at 12-18 in some mock drafts

Next year i hope the Canucks are dead last

So with the teams jumping up to the top of the draft there could be a chance that they weren't expecting to jump up that high and might have been scouting players other than the top 2 a lot more ...what if one of them really likes someone else and is willing to deal ....what would a reasonable trade be ? Or what would you be willing to part with to get back to the top 2 ?

I think your right! Should be interesting to say the least!

I am curios why nobody here is high on Owen Tippett?

- MR.Hunter

Maybe....although he's no where near as good as Heiskanen.

Next 2 seasons!
- mauryballstein

Yep

For me...

a) Glass

b) Mittlestadt
- VanHockeyGuy

Glass is more gritty but is his skating good enough? He's improved the most this season. He's a Bo clone it seems. But if Mittlestadt was available he's got the better upside with offense, creativity, skating and is a good size too.
