ill take it from a Buffalo POV, but id rather have Grigensons over Gaunce. Wilson or Samuelsson makes me happy at 21

One hole in your prediction for the Habs is Forsberg hasnt played centre in over 2 years and likely will stay a winger. His game flourished once he switched to the wing and he is more of a threat off the board with his size and deadly shot.

Not saying the Habs won't take him but it wont be because he is a centre.

Also I predict the Leafs try to package their pick for an established centre if they can't move up to get Galchenyuk or Grigorenko is not available (who I think goes 3rd)

Its not secret that the Pens will listen to offers for J Staal and can be had for the right price. I would say try for Getzlaf but I think the price would be to much for BB

Not saying they get Staal but I see BB making an attempt and if it fails they trade down.

I think it's time for Columbus to make a safe pick this year. I wouldn't be surprised if they take Murray.

penguins always take best player available so if a dman is the best player available... shero will take him.

the 5th is the only thing that i would be excited about as a penguins fan... i dont see the Leafs and Pens making a deal unless Burke really over pays... which wouldnt surprise me.

i see CHI or CAR as the more likely team..

Imagine if Murary slips to 6th and the Ducks draft another stud defenseman and they still had Gardiner and Schultz signed...

Pouliot or Finn probably if they are looking for a defenseman. I think they need a little more help on the wing though in the near future so I wouldn't be surprised if they drafted a guy like Frk or DiGiuseppe if they're still there.

I honestly see the Oil making two trades that will effect their draft:

Edm: Dubinsky
NYR: Hemsky, Teubert

Edm: 8th pick
Carolina: Gagner, Rieder, Peckham

Edmonton drafts:
Yakapov with the 1st
Rielly or Reinhart with the 8th

True - but play him between Taylor Hall and Nail Yakapov and I think his numbers would improve...

I just think he's what the Oil needs - A bigger, tough, hard-working, nasty to play against centre. The offence isn't entirely whats required...he brings things that the Oil doesn't have in their top 6, or really in their line-up.

I think Ryan Jones and Brandon Dubinsky are one in the same. I actually think jones is better because of his production vs. his contract.
