I know I don't want the team touch Parekh or Silayev with a 10 foot pole. You don't take defensive D or all out offensive D with serious flaws at the other end of the ice with high first round picks unless your system is loaded and you can handle a serious swing and miss imho.

D men typically go higher than projected at the draft, and smaller players typically drop. So I expect Buium, Silayev, and Dickenson to be gone at 9, and Parekh, Catton, and Helenius to be available. Iginla is a wild card.
