Unknowable doesn't mean unguessable. I would call it an uneducated guess though, and I admit that. That doesn't take the fun away.

However I do think people randomly "assuming" that Juolevi and such "have" to be the #6 on the list is amusing. I make no assumptions. Tkachuk isn't even on my personal top 6, even if he's a safe bet for a team's top six based on likelyhood it doesn't mean I buy that he's a no-brainer top 5 pick in this year's draft. People read way too much into "consensus" rankings.
