Just missed the cut: Wheeler, Korpikoski, Pineault, Nokelainen, Salmonsson, and a whole slough of goalies(Shantz, Schneider, Dubnyk).
Oiler's Perspective: With JDD possibly rejoining the draft, our new need becomes a future starter. If he signed then i would say the need still exists, but is not an urgent matter, or worthy of a 1st round pick. Our secound selection I made on the basis that most of the marquee forwards will be gone already, and try to grab a possible future PP QB. Thoughts from my fellow Oiler's fans?
Teams who could be on the move draft day:
- EDM: 2 1st round picks, tons of cheap talented NHL ready youth .
- NYR: 6 picks in the 1st 2 rounds
- WAS: 3 picks in 1st round alone, look to them to try and gain another high 1st round pick with extra 1st's, and 2nd's
- CAR - they are hosting it and might want to make a splash, and 8th is not too far to trade down to out of the top 5.
I would love to hear comments from team's respective fans on what their drafting needs are, and how my rankings looked. Thanks in advance.
