Just one of those thoughts that usually a sure top 5 picks always seems to fall down the draft a bit and usually at least one team goes off the board in the top 10.
I think the top 3 are locked:
COL: Jones
FLA: Mackinnon
TBAY: Drouin
Nashville is a team I could see going off the board a little bit. I could really see them liking Lindholm, as he seems to fit their style of play and they have drafted out of Sweden frequently in the last two/three years.
Carolina is a team I could see taking Nurse/Monahan, they tend to draft within North America more then even Darryl Sutter did. (2001 was the last time they took a non-North American player in the first round, since then Victor rask is the only european second rounder even).
Would not be shocked if Barkov fell to Calgary TBQH.
