T-Bone posted:I think it's suspect at best to rate guys like Puljujarvi, Dubois, and Juolevi over Hischier or Patrick. Clearly neither is Matthews/Laine level but they're in the next tier. I dunno how much it's changed, but a little while ago someone ran a pretty detailed comparison between Dubois and Patrick, and the verdict was that they were very close comparisons except Patrick was slightly worse and much more injured. Dubois was ranked 4th going into the draft last year, so "a slightly worse Dubois" lands fifth.

I wanna add that after the Leafs decided to theme last year's draft on "large overagers," I'm not all too enthusiastic with what they'll do with their draft this year. At least they've been reliably good with their first pick, even during the dark years (except for Biggs gently caress that).

corn on the cop posted:Pretty much. For every Gaudreau or Keller there's about a dozen more Tedenby's and Grimaldi's. I think it depends on where in which draft you're taking someone. Yamamoto, like Grimaldi, is in a pretty not good draft, so the decision on drafting him isn't so much "is he likely to succeed" as it is "every player at this level is some sort of gamble so you might as well aim for serious upside." Like, it's usually not the small guy who scores being weighed against the big guy who scores, but more often the small guy who scores being weighed against the big guy who doesn't score.

Kilza posted:Bob McKenzie released his final draft rankings, and he has Hischier over Patrick for 1st overall. Bob's ranking is a poll of scouts so I think this is pretty telling.

So, uh http://www.espn.com/nhl/insider/story/_/id/19689002/nhl-final-2017-mock-draft-featuring-all-31-picks-first-round quote:To reiterate, this is not my preference and ranking of various prospects. In fact, my opinion differs substantially on several players listed here. Rather, this is simply what I believe will happen on Friday based on discussions with scouts and executives all season.
