And with the 33rd pick the San Jose Sharks select RD Stian Solberg. At 42 either RD Henry Mews or LD Alfons Freij. As a Sharks fan, I would love that as my first four picks.
As a Capitals fan, I am worried that we'll take Connelly. I am happy that they're not taking him in this mock draft. My best guess for the Capitals is Jiricek, but you don't have Jiricek falling to their pick.
@@LockedOnAvalanche See The Hockey Guy's video about the NHL's dislike of Cap Friendly. It seems that the NHL is partly responsible. It's not like Ted Leonsis is popular in Washington DC anyways: the failed attempt to move the team to Northern Virginia has made him even less popular with Washington fans, even before the Cap Friendly purchase made everyone (including Capitals fans) dislike him. According to the New York Times, a handful of NHL teams were interested in buying Cap Friendly, and it wasn't just the Washington Capitals that had interest. I don't think we'll ever find out if Ted Leonsis would keep Cap Friendly open to the public if the NHL would allow him to. But they're not allowing him to.
@@gabrielrockman the NHL's refusal to move stuff like this inhouse is truly baffling and continues to cause them to trail behind other sports. And by the NHL rules, the Capitals can't keep it open to the public once they own it. Which is what it is. Yes, other teams were interested and no matter who won that bid would catch the wrath of the fans. That just happens to be Washington. So they have to own that too unfortunately

Fun exercise, but I am highly doubtful of some of these choices (primarily after pick 15)
You dont have Stian Solberg in the first round? Every where else he goes around 15-20
I don’t see Hutson going till the 2nd round or later. Not a lot of teams want an undersized dman like that. They aren’t great for the playoffs
Where Luchanko ???
