Went with a Dman here - I think Fabbro is a good pick. McLeod is BPA IMO, but think the Avs take a Dman . It isn't like the NFL where you NEED to draft positionally; but think when you look at the prospects and core, Fabbro makes sense.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

MacKinnon/Duchene/McLeod would be the speediest trio of centers in NHL history.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

I think Fabbro could become a star on the Avs

 

[edguy]

Also went Fabbro.

Contrary to popular belief the Avs don't NEED defensive prospects, look at the list up there and then look at the thin list of wingers. Ideally they want a large winger. The Avs tend to go for smart, two way players with good speed and a goal scoring touch. McLeod would be my pick here. Avs also aren't likely to draft out of the bchl either.

Very easily Mcleod. Even in this hypothetical I'm pissed at missing out on Dubois.

The Colorado Avalanche are proud to select from Mississauga of the Ontario Hockey League;
