If Demidov is the #2 pick, I go Jiricek at #18 (assuming he's available.)
If Levshunov is the #2 pick, I go Basha at #18 (assuming he's available.)


But I still expect KD to move up from #18.

I'm not sold on Jiricek like a lot here. He has potential because he was ranked a "likely" top 10 guy before injury but I have to think that was also with expecting some offense to come about. Even his junior Czech stats before the last 2 years aren't so great.
I fear he has too much of a reputation boosted his brother.

Surprised Leo Sahlin Walleinus is not on here, but Freij is. Leo is this years version of Mikhail Gulyayev, but a little worse at everything

I voted Jiricek but its not like he is a home run. Just at 18 I think he has some of the best ceiling of the guys available. I've seen Artamonov and Chernsyov (and others) way more. I'd be cool with Chernysov

Connelly... we all know that story. I just don't think the Hawks will do that right now. Walleinus is a really good player too. I would be more interested in him than a few of the guys here.

I liked EJ Emery more when he was in that 34 range. You could still take him here but I don't like the offensive projection at 18.

Jiricek is the home run swing you take at eighteen.
Home run swing?! Chicago?!
