Predict where we will draft in 2013 and who we will pick

[internetdotcom]

As the lockout boredom continues ...

There are obviously a lot of factors between now and the draft that will determine who we draft, like whether there is a season, how the lottery will be conducted if not, where we will finish if so, and changes to player rankings between now and the draft, etc.

But just for fun, predict if you think there will be a season (looks more likely now than before), where we will draft, and who we will pick in the first round. For those so inclined, maybe even predict the whole first round draft order and draft selections. Could be fun to look back after the draft and see how far off we all were.

Looking forward to reading your predictions!

Traded pick in package for young, talented winger.

Who do you speculate would be the winger, and where would the pick be?

Tough to say, but if the season starts now and we're not gonna sell futures for immediate defensive help, I think we're looking at a top-10 pick.

Same i can see even a top 5 pick ,with one injury to either EK or Spezza

 

[Vaclav Varada]

17th- Anthony Duclair

Don't know much about him (though he is going 27th to Columbus on mynhldraft.com LOL). Can you tell me more about him?

I hope we draft BPA, not for positional need.

I seem to be higher on him then most scouting services, but I love his game. It's all about speed. He just flies. He's got a great shot and is pretty strong. Bit of a question in his hockey sense but I've liked what I've seen.

 

[OgieO]

I think we'll pick around 18 and take Jacob de la Rose.

17 and the Ottawa senators are proud to select Nikita Zadorov


Scouring report: I didn't write it's from an article.

Nikita Zadorov, Defence, London Knights, (6’5″ 230 lbs): Zadorov is big and has a nasty streak as he has shown to be an effective hitter early in his OHL career with London.* A valuable defensive defenceman who keeps the front of the net clear and punishes opposing forwards, Zadorov brings his biggest value in his own end of the ice.* He does have the ability to contribute to offence though, often making a good smart first pass.

I think that would be a very good pick after the middle of the round. There is some great talent this year as a whole it would seem.

 

[Tuna99]

Ott: Brent Burns
SJS: 1st 2013, Zibby, Bishop,

ott: Brent burns
sjs: 1st 2013, zibby, bishop,

noooooo!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BondraTime]

Pick from 5-10 - Rasmus Ristolainen (more like 8-10)

Pick from 11-15 - Adam Erne

Pick from 16-20 - Robert Hagg

Pick from 21-25 - Jacob de la Rose

Pick from 26-30 - Ryan Hartman

 

[Rumcajs]

Somehow we end up with Max Domi.

 

[Jp20]

the ottawa senators are proud to select with the 11th overall pick HUNTER SHINKARUK!!!!!

future line of silfverberg-shinkaruk-zibanejad

two shooters with one amazing passer

 

[JonnyMacSen]

I'll use a similiar format ^ (Going by only players I've seen play so far)

5-10 - Shinkaruk/Nurse

10-15 - Domi/Zadorov

15-20 - Dickinson/Rychel

20-30 - Kujawinski/Bigras

 

[JonnyMacSen]

Somehow we end up with Max Domi.

Would not be shocked, he's a solid player, plus it would drive Leaf fans crazy

 

[BUCKLE UP]

17 and the Ottawa senators are proud to select Nikita Zadorov

Yes.

 

[BondraTime]

Yes.

I really want him as well, just hope the Russian nationality doesn't affect judgement.

 

[McManked]

With the 11th overall pick, the Ottawa Senators select Darnell Nurse.

 

[Jp20]

with the first overall pick the ottawa senators select madison bowey

LOL JK

i think that we will end up picking around 5-15

defencemnen: i would like to see the sens get zadorov but i doubt it with the history the sens have with russians if we dont draft him then josh morrissey would be a good pick

forward: hunter shinkaruk he is a very energetic if you watch his games.
or monahan would be the ideal pick
silfverberg-monahan-zibanejad
OR
silfverberg-shinkaruk-zibanejad

what would you guys like to see??

 

[Hale The Villain]

12th overall: D, Ryan Pulock

Pulock and Karlsson on the PP

 

[Cat Dad Sixty Nine]

Draft McKinnon, Trade Spezza. Im serious

 

[JonnyMacSen]

Draft McKinnon, Trade Spezza. Im serious

You would have to reverse the order of that for it to work

 

[HugeMidget]

We would never trade Spezza. But for the sake of fun: Trade Spezza to acquire the draft picks to draft both Mackinnon and Drouin
