Also, I will note that I don't care if the Ht./Wt. are accurate enough to your satisfaction in the tables above, as they're mostly all from TSN's latest ranking, so I'm just letting you know now that whines about that will fall on deaf ears. However, if I goofed on a prospect's handedness or if you notice I pasted the wrong tab's URL into one of the links provided, that you can certainly PM me about to edit. Other than that, the thread will likely remain closed until Friday morning.

 

[Woodhouse]

Okay, now bring on the draft already!

Draft order and bookmark reference threads have been unstuck and this GDT's been re-opened. Also, if you haven't figured it out already, the Mediawatch cells in the tables above go oldest to newest, with a few links needing translations into English. The video links were mostly what's available on YouTube at the time of aggregation, with some hosted elsewhere, and a few of them may need a careful eye for the prospect if it's not an edited clip, interview, or reel. HF, HFB, and THW links are self-explanatory, while the player names themselves link to their Elite Prospects stats.

Lastly, follow the rules. That should go without saying.

 

[Get North]

I think Dal Colle will fall out of the top 5.

 

[vanarchy]

So damn excited!

 

[QuietContrarian]

i think dal colle will fall out of the top 5.

I wish!!!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

So ALL the rumoured trades are going to go through today, right? I love the draft.

No idea who the Habs are going to take. Too many choices.

 

[Kelly]

Today is finally here

 

[Stats01]

Just a reminder whatever moves are not made today/tonight, free agency is just 4 days away so there's another day of a lot of possible player movement specifically trades. The next week pretty much is going to be exciting.

 

[Regina Pat]

I hope the Leafs nab Virtanan or Nylander at 8, and ideally make a move for a late first and try to get Sanheim/McKeown/Petterson.

 

[Fighter]

I'm hoping for Perlini and Kempe to the Ducks.

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

"We have a trade to announce"

 

[UsernameWasTaken]

it's back.

 

[Uncle Lou]

I hope Draisaitl drops to 5 for the isles

 

[Canadian Game]

Does anyone know what time the actual draft is supposed to get under way? I see that the show on TSN and NBCSN starts at 7, but I'd imagine that the actual draft won't begin until 7:30 or 8.

It should not be that late. From what I remember, you can expect the 1st pick to happen around 7:15/20.

 

[GKJ]

Welcome to my cittaaaayyyyyy


everybody's welcome here

 

[The Red Line]

So I'm sure this has been addressed somewhere:

I have to work tonight during the draft, is there a good app for iphone or just a good website that I can refresh to see who got picked where? I suppose I can use this thread, but I'm sure there's something better out there.

 

[DayTripper]

Michael Traikos ‏@Michael_Traikos 33m

I keep hearing that Draisaitl is the top choice for a lot of teams. I wonder if he supplants Ekblad, Bennett, Reinhart and goes No. 1.

 

[MC Ride]

Apparently Flames are looking for another top 10 pick. Interested to see where that goes.

 

[DayTripper]

Probably nowhere.
