I am hoping they snag Justin Kirkland with the late 2nd if he's there. Big, great hands, decent skater and has a lot of filling out ahead of him. Put up pretty good numbers for a 3rd/4th liner at 17. Going to be a beast and then selfishly I get to watch a flames prospect in person for a couple years, hasn't happened since Backlund and Grantham were here.
He doesn't really fight though so he might get passed on grounds of non-truculent.
Also for later picks I really like Keegan Iverson and Alex Shoenborn from Portland.
