Also like Cole Emerton and Michael D'Alessio of Vaughan kings
 
Everyone is going to be thinking Xu is NCAA on Friday then cause he will not be a T10 pick, maybe a 1st round pick if a team is desperate enough to a D-man.

I meant if he's not taken in the first round, teams probably know of him not going to ohl beforehand, therefore not drafting him
 
Where does everyone feel Cole Emerton would get picked? watched a couple of games and he seems like a smooth skater who isn't afraid to get physical, is 20-25 a reasonable guess?

Forwards seem to be coveted this year im not completely sure why. I believe this draft is pretty deep at center and D men are always a position of need so im a bit perplexed.
Is the forward group just that much better? Bowler might get hung if he ignores the D position again this year in Windsor!!
 
Like to see Xu drop to windsors 2nd pick!

The more I think about it, the more I see him going to Kingston at #8…. It really depends on whether Kingston is picking to move him at the deadline or picking to keep the player for four years. If they are picking and have no intention of moving the player at the deadline, the D-Man is what that franchise needs most to build around.
 
Any thought or interest in a hfboards OHL mock draft?

Any fan base member can make a selection for their specific team based on player preference and/or need.

Windsor you’d be on the clock.

Ambrosio, Greer, Blaseg, Barton, Emerton, Gowan, Frossard, Roy, Gaitens, Babin, Bilecki probably in that tier afterwards. Some of them pretty close to that group above
 
#92 Brandon should go higher than Hage #9 for the 3rd highest vaughn forward player drafted. A sleeper on Vaughn is #25 Chavez.
Not a #71 Ben Bowen fan? I think he's better than both. Injuries did rob him of games this season. But in saying that, he still projects to be a better junior player than both

Windsor picks at 22 and 24. Assuming they take a D at 22 which strong C is likely to be still available at 24?
Ryder Cali/Tyler Challenger would fit that description at #24
 
Ambrosio, Greer, Blaseg, Barton, Emerton, Gowan, Frossard, Roy, Gaitens, Babin, Bilecki probably in that tier afterwards. Some of them pretty close to that group above
Add Jude Bray Toronto Marlies and Blake Barnes Lambton Jr Sting also
 
I thought I might as well give it a go. More of a ranking, ranther than a mock draft.
