If we take one of those guys, I'm pretty sure I can't be unhappy though, they are all great.

The best player available. Prefer Ekbald.

I want Ekblad. I think adding a good young defenceman like him to the team now would benefit the team most 2 years down the road. Especially if you are that bad and get one to the top two picks in next years draft. Having three building blocks like Ekblad, McDavid, and Monahan with some of the other pieces coming into place, could really set the team up with a good balanced core.

And you believe that to be?
Since this is a "pick who you'd like" thread, you are allowed to actually answer with a player.

And Draisaitl is hardly "leftovers", he may very well be the best of the four.

I want Ekblad > Reinhart > Bennett > Draisaitl in this order.
Just thinking the top 3 will be chosen.

It will be Bennett or Draisaitl. And not a soul will be disappointed.

Who I want = Ekblad
Just as high of a prospect, and he helps to fill a need in our system.
Who we get = Reinhart
Ekblad - Bennett - Draisaitl - Reinhart
Happy with this as he is the smartest player in the draft with IQ off the charts

To me this is a silly thread. The assumption should be that the top 3 are not available and the choices should not include them.
If one of Ekblad, Reinhart, or Bennet remain, the obvious choice is to pick that player. I think everyone on this forum will agree.
IMO the poll should contain 2 players: Draisaitl or Dal Colle.

I have a childhood connection with anything Kootenay Ice, so I'd love to see Reinhart in a Flames jersey.
However, I'd want Ekblad first and foremost. I think he might be the only NHL ready player in the draft.

Well it depends on who's available. Take the last "big four" player.
Draft should go
FLA: Ekblad
BUF: Bennett/Bennett
EDM: Draisaitl
CGY: Reinhart/Bennett
It could go
FLA: Bennett
BUF: Reinhart
EDM: Ekblad/Draisaitl
CGY: Ekblad/Draisaitl
I think we'll end up with Reinhart, but all of them are great, my rankings would be
1. Ekblad
2. Reinhart
3. Bennett
4. Draisaitl
tough between Draisaitl and Bennett

I don't believe in a universe where Edmonton passes on Ekblad

I'll be happy with any of those 4 though.

I like the way Bennett can crash and bang. He fits the bill.
Draisaitl is a close second for me though.
I have a feeling we get Reinhart... and that's fine too.
