Svechnikov @ 15 is still my primary hope. There's so many variables at the pick # though.
I don't like the idea of trading down still. I like the fact you get the best pick of the litter in that area.
Two players that scare me are Merkley and Chabot. I watched some youtube highlights of players in the U-18 and Chabot got beaten terribly a couple of times by some of the other draft eligibles. Like embarassed. One was Eriksson Ek who picked off a terrible Chabot pass to J.Roy and the other was Colin White, a couple of times.
And there's just something I cannot pin point on Merkley that puts me off. Konecny just looks better.
And Guryanov looks like he can beat everyone one on one. Might be a risky pick @ 15 but the world will not end if they decide to grab a top tier talent.
