The draft always brings surprises and there are players that drop.
What a lame duck answer. In order for players to drop, someone has to rise, correct?
So, which one of the defensemen of Broberg, Soderstrom, Harley, or others are going to rise significantly?
So far, I haven't seen anything that indicated those 3 are going to all jump ahead significantly. Broberg is the only one who I have really heard additional noise about, and that was because he was a replacement at the U-18s who did very well. You want to know who I have heard about rising? Caufield, Krebs, and Kaliyev.
At least state who you know is rising on the boards, otherwise, what are you contributing by saying that "players drop?" If we were picking at 9 or 10, not too concerned with who drops because there is still a pretty solid pick out of them. At 14, though, we need the absolute perfect scenario, which includes 4 or 5 defensemen being taken and/or Spencer Knight. I don't see that happening.
