Beyond No. 5, there is considerable debate in which order the rest of the Top 10 should play out, but based on the TSN survey, it's should actually be referenced as a Top 11. There wasn't a lot separating Nos. 6 through 11.
University of Michigan freshman defenceman Zach Werenski drew the short straw to fall out of the top 10 to No. 11 but truth is it was by the slimmest of margins. The rest of the top 10 is as follows:
Sarnia Sting centre Pavel Zacha at No. 6; Kingston Frontenac winger Lawson Crouse at No. 7; Brandon defenceman Provorov at No. 8; Seattle Thunderbird centre Matthew Barzal at No. 9 and Finnish winger Mikko Rantanen at No. 10.

Scouts didn't discount the possibility of an outlier beyond the top 11 cracking the Top 10 on draft day. The best bets in that regard are Swiss winger Timo Meier of the Halifax Mooseheads at No. 12 and American forward Kyle Connor of Youngstown in the USHL at No. 13. But make no mistake, TSN's survey clearly suggests there is a Top 11 in this draft.

-- One of the most intriguing names in the draft is Swedish defenceman Oliver Kylington, who is ranked No. 24.
Kylington was a Top 10 pre-season pick and originally seen as a threat to challenge Hanifan and the other high-end defenceman for best blueliner. The Swede is one of this draft class's best skaters but he didn't put together his game this season like many thought he would. He hung on to be a first-round pick on TSN's list, but a considerable number of scouts had him well outside the top 30.
It will be interesting to monitor when he's taken.
