Mock Draft

[colinst14]

Hey Guys,

i saw this thread over at Hockey's Future boards:

http://hfboards.com/showthread.php?t=864601

And thought it would be something cool to, especially because its all 7 rounds, but unfortunately im not the most professional when it comes to playing scout, but I do have a little knowledge. I was wondering if you guys would want to do something similar over on here?

[west coast]

that would be fun....i am in

[colinst14]

alright cool. i'll need some help organizing it, as for the draft order and stuff. you can start picking what team you would like now though. I think i'll take Calgary.

[west coast]

i will pick for the Edmonton Oilers

[mjw22]

sounds like a good idea . I'll take Chicago

[chalk_one_up]

Colorado Avalanche please.

[colinst14]

bumping this back up just to see if we can get more people. Only 26 spots left.

[witness]

Good idea!
I don't know if I can do it justice.
But, I can do the Habs

[colinst14]

cool.
It wasn't really my idea as you can see it was on another boards, but since that one was for people who were really "in the know", and thats not really me, I'd thought I'd make a new one on here.

[Rocketsfan]

Sounds awesome, I'll take the Bruins

[colinst14]

guess I'll bump this up again. For anyone who's joined, let people know, see if anyone you know on here is interested!

[west coast]

i will draft a second team to get this draft off the ground- i will choose for the NEW YORK ISLANDERS

[mjw22]

I'll take a second team as well but I'll give it up if someone wants it. Tampa Bay. Are you allowing trades like the other site

[chalk_one_up]

If we can nab a second team, I'll select the Carolina Hurricanes.

[Rocketsfan]

I'll take St. Louis if second teams are allowed

[colinst14]

I guess second teams are alright if it helps this thing get going.

I'm not sure if we should allow trades, would you guys want too?

Also, I'll need some help doing the whole draft order, should we use the standings right now and make it, or wait a bit?

[west coast]

I dont think trades should be allowed because it slows down the whole process.The draft order should be determined by the standings on the day before the draft commences....just my thoughts .I will choose a third team just to get this draft off the ground.I will choose for the New Jersey Devils.

[Malc]

i will pick for Vancouver Canucks, and Ottawa Senators as a second team.

[colinst14]

I dont think trades should be allowed because it slows down the whole process.The draft order should be determined by the standings on the day before the draft commences....just my thoughts .I will choose a third team just to get this draft off the ground.I will choose for the New Jersey Devils.


Also, since I don't think anyone would want to wait until the last day, should we do it as of today? Or tomorrow or something.

[west coast]

need more people to take spots to get this mock draft off the ground

[colinst14]

That would be great if we could get more people, I'd love to have 30 members participating, but I think if we don't get more people, we could do a little draft with only 12 teams? just go based on the standings, from picks 1-12, and then reverse order each round? Have like 10 rounds or something? I think if we did this I wouldn't mind at least pick trading... what do you guys think?

[west coast]

sounds like a good plan to get this NHL Fantasy mock draft off the ground.

[Rocketsfan]

Sounds like a great idea

[colinst14]

Alright, well I'll keep it open today, but we can get the order down tonight or something.

[mjw22]

I'll take phil as my 3rd team .we should pick the draft order as soon as we can . to find player rankings just go to www.nhl.com central scouting rankings 2011. it has all draft info you can print off .

[colinst14]

Nevermind, you can have philly and then its a 14 team draft. No more teams now though. Im working on the order.

[colinst14]

OK, I made the order, but im unclear on a lot of it. Like 3 teams have the exact same record, so someone will have to clear that up for me. Once we get round 1 figured out ill do the other ones.

[west coast]

go with winning percentage , or most wins, GF,GA , or to make is simple break the tie by going alphabetical

[west coast]

The NJ Devils are proud to select RW Gabriel Landeskog, Kitchener ,OHL

[west coast]

the NY Islanders select D Adam Larsson, Skelleftea,SEL

[west coast]

The Edmonton Oilers select C Ryan Nugent Hopkins, Red Deer Rebels , WHL

[Malc]

The Ottawa Senators select C Sean Couturier, Drummondville (QMJHL)

[Rocketsfan]

The Boston Bruins select C Jonathan Huberdeau, Saint John (QMJHL)

[colinst14]

Calgary selects from the Niagara Ice Dogs, Ryan Strome.

[mjw22]

Guys can we get our picks up maybe a little quicker thanks:clap:

[Rocketsfan]

what we could do is give people 12 hours to make their pick and if they don't, just give them the highest rated player still available. I know I'm not always on the site so just something to think about

[mjw22]

what we could do is give people 12 hours to make their pick and if they don't, just give them the highest rated player still available. I know I'm not always on the site so just something to think about

good idea. chalk one up you're on the clock lol

[west coast]

its been over 24 hours , does someone want to pick for chalk one up

[colinst14]

Well according to Central Scouting he would get Tyler Biggs.

[west coast]

sounds good , chalk one up back on the clock ....cricket

[mjw22]

sounds good , chalk one up back on the clock ....cricket

maybe instead of rewarding late guys with next highest pick it should be the lowest . At the draft you'd lose your pick lol At this rate it'll take a month to get through 10 rounds .

[witness]

Well according to Central Scouting he would get Tyler Biggs.


If I was picking for Carolina, I would be looking at a d-man.

The problem is the same guy has the 7th and 8th pick. So if it is a problem at 7th, it will be a problem at 8th.

[mjw22]

True he was on here yesterday I believe . just give them bottom picks if they're not interested in picking their own.

[colinst14]

Why don't we just move on to the next pick... ill leave the number 8 pick open, and he can just pick whoevers available when he comes on here.

[chalk_one_up]

This was poorly ran from the beginning. Sorry guys. It's not like I log on everyday. I had no clue when this was starting.

[Rocketsfan]

I see he also has to pick for Colorado. So if we're moving on to the next pick, I choose Sven Bartschi for SJ

[colinst14]

Ill agree that isn't being done the best, but it's because so few people were interested. Why don't we just put it on hold for a bit and see if we can get more interest, and start with more teams.

[west coast]

there was nothing wrong with the way things were run.If you commit to a team,at least try and log on once a day.

[mjw22]

[QUOTE=west coast;162554]there was nothing wrong with the way things were run.If you commit to a team,at least try and log on once a day.[/QUOT

Right so are we still drafting or what ? Colinst send a pm to these guys & let them know whats going on.

[Malc]

Colorado Avalanche can have D Ryan Murphy, Kitchener (OHL)
They like smaller point-getting D-men.

San Jose Sharks picked LW Sven Bartschi, Portland (WHL) yesterday.

Chicago Blackhawks (mjw22) to pick next.

[colinst14]

I sent a pm to chalk one up, but i think everyone else is viewing this thread often. I'm fine with just continuing it, so Chicago can have next pick.

[mjw22]

you have to give chalk one up some time to make his picks. colinst14 needs to keep his draft up dated . when you make your pick guys send a pm to next guy it may help

[west coast]

chalk on up had 22 hours to make a pick and is AWOL ,moving on is the right thing to do .I put out a PM to chalk one up when it was his turn to pick and he obviously has left the draft as he has not made any official picks

[colinst14]

Sorry guys, ill make my pick in a second.

Alright, I pick, from the SSM Greyhounds of the OHL, Daniel Catenacci.

[Malc]

It has been over 26 hours since San Jose made their 5th round pick and Chicago (mjw22) seems to be AWOL.

Applying the unwritten rule ("If you exceed the 24 hour window a pick will be made based on the NHL CS mid-season rankings" :rolleyes: ), the Blackhawks get LW Olivier Archambault, Val D'Or, QMJHL

Montreal (witness) to pick next.

cs mid season rankings have archambault at 41 theres # 27 31 32 38 ahead of him so how did you come up with 41 as well as euros. malc are you running draft now lol some of us do have lives to live lol

cs mid season rankings have archambault at 41 theres # 27 31 32 38 ahead of him so how did you come up with 41 as well as euros.

# 27 31 32 38 have already been selected:
# 27 (Jamieson Oleksiak - San Jose 3rd round), 31 (Philippe Hudon - Carolina 5th round) 32 (Michael Paliotta - Colorado 5th round) 38 (Nicholas Shore - NYI 5th round)

I made the assumption that Chicago was after a forward, and Olivier Archambault (19G 21A) seemed better than Jeremy Boyce (10G 12A), top unpicked Euro forward at #14.


malc are you running draft now lol some of us do have lives to live lol

I confess that I was trying to get this mock draft finished before the real one started :) I'll let people take their time from now on :D

[west coast]

i think that the 12 hour or 24 hour rule has been a godsend by keeping this mock draft running .We would still be waiting for individuals to be making their first round .We are only half way through the draft .The alternate picks chosen for absent individual have been very fair options.I vote that we maintain the 12 hour rule .

Rising:

Chase Balisy, F, Western Michigan
The Newest addition to ISS top 100 Balisy, a native of Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif., finished the season tied for eighth in the CCHA in conference play with 26 points on 12 goals and 14 assists. Good character kid who looks to have his career back on path after suffering though "family issues" during the past year or so, that obviously effected his on-ice performance. This season with Western Michigan Balisy saw time in every situation and in every crucial moment of the games. He finished third in the league in freshman scoring and led the team in points in conference play. Balisy was also named CCHA Rookie of the Month for January, amassing 12 pts on five goals and seven assists. Was recently named to the Central Collegiate Hockey Association All-Rookie team.

Mika Zibanejad, F, Djurgarden
A very promising player with power forward potential, plays the game hard and since joining the Elitserien squad from the junior program at the start of Dec, he has 4 goals and 8 pts in 25 games. He had 11 goals and 20 pts in 26 games with Djurgarden's junior team prior to his promotion. He has above average offensive intelligence and good instincts around the net. He has a deceptively hard and accurate shot with a good release and is a dangerous shooter off the rush from both the middle and the outside lanes.

Keegan Lowe, D, Edmonton Oil Kings
Lowe has been a model of consistency for the Edmonton Oil Kings since the first of Jan. Lowe is a solid two-way defender with good size that thinks the games well at both ends of the ice. He has good vision and is able to make the first pass. He will be a key contributor to the Oil Kings' defense corps for the next few seasons and does have the ability and skill set to take it to the next level.

Destry Straight, F, Coquitlam Express
Boston College recruit enjoyed a terrific rookie season in the BCHL where he finished 2nd in team scoring with 67 pts in 59 games. His offensive instincts are top notch & is deadly with the puck when he has a scoring chance. Was voted BCHL rookie of the year. He has consistently shown his ability to be a top flight playmaker and could be a hidden gem in the mid rounds of this year's draft.

Artem Sergeev, D, Val d'Or Foreurs
Sergeev has greatly improved his overall game since the start of the season. Smart mobile stay at home defensemen has impressed ISS scouts with each viewing. He has good smooth puck handling skills, but rarely tries to do much, relying more on safe and reliable plays to move the puck to teammates or out of harm's way. He makes very good supportive positioning decisions on the breakout and is always an option for his partner. He's generally matched up against the most teams' top line, logging upwards of 25 minutes per game. Val d'Or's 2nd Rnd. pick, 72nd Overall in 2010 CHL Import draft.

Henri Auvinen, D, JYP
A good sized, active all around defender, Auvinen turned some heads with his recent play and had a lot of scouts wondering just where this kid came from and who exactly he was. Auvinen could find himself becoming a draft day sleeper and it's a safe bet to say his role won't change much in Germany when the U18 World Championships start in mid April.

Nathan Beaulieu, D, Saint John Sea Dogs
Over the past couple of months has done a better job of picking his spots when looking to jump into the rush and play an offensive style. He has good vision and is able to make the first pass.
He will be a key contributor to the Sea Dogs' defense corps for the next few seasons and does have the ability and skill set to take it to the next level.

Jean-Gabriel Pageau, C, Gatineau Olympiques
Pageau is one of Gatineau's best players and consistent scoring threat every night. Not overly big but plays with smarts and is very crafty. Pageau's offensive skills can be explosive. His puck skills make him a very dangerous team player, when he's left uncovered in the offensive zone. He is an exceptional skater with slick mobility and tight control of his edges. Has terrific vision on the ice-Buy some stock in this kid!

Sven Bartschi, LW, Portland Winterhawks
There isn't another draft eligible prospect in any league this season that has been as consistent as Bartschi. Bartschi has only failed to register a point in 10 games this season. Only two games into March and he has already put up 8 points and with Portland primed to gain extra exposure in the playoffs, Bartschi is heating up at just the right time. Couple this with the trust that is associated with Portland bench boss Mike Johnston's ability to develop offensive prospects and Bartschi is likely showing up rather large on every NHL team's draft radars.

Jamie Oleksiak, D, Northeastern University
The hype around the hulking 6'7" 240lb defender just continues to grow and Oleksiak is quickly becoming one of the most interesting potential first round prospects for this year's NHL draft. ISS scouts love his mobility for his size and the fact that it continues to improve. Oleksiak has gone from a very awkward looking teen trying to make it in the USHL to an increasingly smooth and well rounded young man playing in the NCAA. Oleksiak has good two-way ability, instincts and awareness and has drawn a lot of comparisons to Buffalo's Tyler Myers. His physical potential could possibly even eclipse that of Myers and that fact alone has NHL clubs drooling over the prospect of adding him to their respective stables.

Albert Yarullin, D, Bars Kazaan
Started season slowly but over the last 2 months has shown improvement in overall game and appears to be playing with much greater level of confidence than earlier this season. Was best d-men for Russia during 5 Nations tournament. Yarullin has a bullet from the point.

Adam Clendening, D, Boston University
Clendening is an offensive minded defender who continues to adjust seamlessly to higher levels. The NTDP product now mans the blueline for Boston University and has continued to display his ability to adapt and fit in with some of the best programs in hockey. He has put up 23 pts in 36 games in first season of NCAA hockey, ranking him at the top of all first year draft eligible collegiate scorers. His consistent ability to be an impact player at various levels over the past few seasons and his progressive development this season has him poised to be a potential late-1st round steal.

Ryan Strome, C, Niagara IceDogs
Strome just continues to electrify the OHL this year and has been winning over even the harshest and most pessimistic critics as the season wears on. He is an ultra-intelligent and opportunistic playmaker who calculates his options extremely quickly and reacts even faster. Scouts and GMs love a player who can bounce back after disappointment and prove the doubters wrong and Strome continues to answer every and all questions about his abilities.

Stuart Percy, D, Mississauga St. Michael's Majors
A very underrated and consistent defender, Percy has been excellent this year for Mississauga. With the puck, Percy is cool, calm and collected and very rarely tries to do too much. He is assertive in every zone and on both sides of the puck. He has yet to really demonstrate that he is an elite offensive defender, but there is some limited upside to go with his reliable two-way play. Expect Percy to show some of this off in the playoffs and Memorial Cup tournament. The increased exposure will likely push his stock even higher.

Justin Sefton, D, Sudbury Wolves
Hard Rock d-men has been a bright spot on the struggling Sudbury Wolves. Started season slowly but over the last 2 months has shown improvement in overall game and appears to be playing with much greater level of confidence than earlier this season. He has added 10 lbs to his frame and appears to have improved his foot speed and looks quicker than earlier viewings. Has quickly made a name for himself as a "tough guy" willing & able to defend teammates. Jump on this kid's bandwagon, it will get full in a hurry.


Falling:

Brent Benson, C, Saskatoon Blades
As of March 6th Benson had gone 12 straight games without a goal and had only bulged the twine once in his last 19 games. Benson has been extremely enigmatic this year and has impressed in some ISS viewings but then disappeared the next night. Benson needs to improve his consistency and demonstrate some evolved versatility down the stretch and through a long playoff run if he is going to undo the damage done by his lengthy drought. A highly touted bantam pick, the sky is falling a bit around Benson and although he is still likely to be selected in this June's NHL draft, his stock is dropping drastically.

Alan Quine, C, Peterborough Petes
Quine came to the Petes with very high expectations and has had a tough time delivering.
An ISS favorite most of the year, however as the season progressed we observed that he hasn't been quite what we thought.

Shane Prince, LW, Ottawa 67s
Prince hasn't enjoyed a lot of the same hype that fellow OHLer Ryan Strome has even while eclipsing him in the scoring column for most of the season. The reason for this is that many believe Princes stronger supporting cast is amplifying his skill set and that without this he doesn't project as well. Well those theories seem to be winning out as the season continues on and ISS scouts have not been impressed by Prince's production or impact away from his star teammate Tyler Toffoli.

Alex Kuvaev, RW, Lethbridge Hurricanes
The Russian winger turned a lot of heads earlier in the season when he seemed to adapt perfectly to the WHL game and way of life. But his production grinded to a near halt in Dec. and has not been able to shake out of the funk. He has managed to tally three pts since the new calendar year and is in danger of dropping off the draft board all together.

Kale Kessy, C, Medicine Hat Tigres
The budding power forward has had a very up and down year. Kessy has a lot of tools in his shed but has not been able to consistently display an effective combination of his skill and grit on regular bases. He can shoot, can fight and he has shown a willingness to play unsung roles during the season. But his long stretches of inconsistent play will turn off a lot of NHL clubs. Currently gone 16 games without a goal.

Nikita Kucherov, F, CSKA Moscow
A slick Russian speedster, Kucherov has tremendous hands and very explosive offensive abilities however his lack of defensive responsibility and at times effort will likely dampen his appeal for NHL teams.

Maximilien Le Sieur, LW, Shawinigan Cataractes
Big thick kid, Lack of any skating improvement has him falling off most draft lists. He seems to spend more time watching the play than actually being a part of it. Up and down winger... still not sold on skating for next level.

Tomas Hyka, F, Mlado Boleslav BK
Highly ranked at the start of the season Hyka has had trouble living up to those expectations. His skill level is evident and he shows above average abilities with the puck but he isn't able to translate them into offensive production.

Maxim Shalunov, F, Chelyabinsk Traktor
Shalunov has proven to be a very Jekyll and Hyde type of player all year long. Away from the puck and in his own end he can seem as lazy and as disinterested as a player could be which is a major concern when gauging his potential for the next level. He still shows frustration when his teammates don't complete a play and displays other cancerous traits and at this point his skill comes with a serious asterisk, so teams need to be aware of what they sign up for if they want this dangerous offensive weapon in their arsenal.
