1. Tavares, 2. Hedman, 3. Duchene, 4. Kane... No surprise at the top. But after that I find it almost humorous how NHL-teams pick their players. It seems to be all about size these days. Size is good but I bet most of the late round canadians and americans have dominated in junior leagues just with their size and potential is already used. At the same time potential european skaters are left undrafted or are drafted in ridiculously high number. Unless you are swede when it seems that every swede with ability to skate was drafted this year.
I find it amusing that Toni Rajala, player who got the most points in U18 World Championships making 19 points in 6 games making the new all-time record was drafted in 102nd. Now that's steal from Oilers! I predict that some late-round finns like Sami Vatanen, Erik Haula and Tommi Kivistö will make huge impact in a few years or so!
And the last pick of the entire draft was Petteri Similä, huge finnish goaltender which was probably only drafted because he is huge, finnish goaltender. There is no other reason

chicago looks like a heavy duty team next year minus a goalie
rangers are still chumps but gaborik should finally bring something more than 32 goals in two years
st louis has to be the sleeper pick

Another 32 goals in two years will cost NYR about 15 million dollars, they better be some beautiful fucking goals!
