#15 - Aatu Raty - Los Angeles is stuck in the no-mans land of last pick missing the playoffs, so had to take a risk at this pick. I wanted Wallstedt, but instead went with Raty. He had a horrific year, where everything went wrong for him, but all of the tools are still there. Boom or bust pick.

#21 - Isak Rosen - No weaknesses in this player, it's just a question of whether there will be one skill that separates him from his peers. Right now the thing that shines is his first step, and that's not bad.

#65 - Vincent Iorio - RHD with a strong defensive game and high IQ, his offensive game has gotten better every season, and he could end up a solid long term NHLer.

#66 - Liam Dower Nilsson - Captain of the Swedish team, and very passionate player (can be prone to penalties). Average skater, but will do whatever it takes to win. High IQ, and goes to the right places on the ice.

#72 - Joshua Roy - taken #1 in the QMJHL draft. High risk player. Needs to work on his defensive game, which he has been doing, but at the determent of his explosive offensive game, making his NHL draft year a very mixed bag. The working man's Aatu Raty, the tools are there offensively, and if he can add an average defensive game the sky's the limit.
