Button's newest mock draft

1. Buffalo Sabres - Owen Power | LHD | Michigan (Big-10)
2. Seattle Kraken - Matthew Beniers | C | Michigan (Big-10)
3. Anaheim Ducks - Dylan Guenther | W | Edmonton (WHL)
4. New Jersey Devils - Brandt Clarke | RHD | Barrie (OHL)
5. Columbus Blue Jackets - Simon Edvinsson | LHD | Frolunda (SHL)
6. Detroit Red Wings - Jesper Wallstedt | G | Lulea (SHL)
7. San Jose Sharks - William Eklund | LW/C | Djurgardens (SHL)
8. Los Angeles Kings - Luke Hughes | LHD | USNTDP (USHL)
9. Vancouver Canucks - Kent Johnson | LW/C | Michigan (Big-10)
10. Ottawa Senators - Mason McTavish | C | Peterborough (OHL)
11. Chicago Blackhawks - Matthew Coronato | RW | Chicago (USHL)
12. Calgary Flames - Cole Sillinger | LW/C | Sioux Falls (USHL)
13. Philadelphia Flyers - Zachary L'Heureux | LW | Halifax (QMJHL)
14. Dallas Stars - Brennan Othmann | LW | Flint (OHL)
15. New York Rangers - Chaz Lucius | RW | USNTDP (USHL)

That would leave, assuming the Bruins take care of the Islanders, the Devils in a great spot at 19 (20 but Arizona's derp). Would leave us one of Lysell, Svechov, Lambos or Ceulemans.

Remember when Raty was going to be the first overall? Jesus

If wallstedt goes before Vancouver, we should be doing everything in our power to get to that pick

He has to find a LW for McDavid.

Ryan McLeod didn’t look out of place at all but they need, as you suggested, to find a good 3C until McLeod shows he’s ready. Starting him on the 4th line would seem appropriate. 

He needs to figure out Goaltending. Smith back for one year is okay but not a solution. I don’t know if Skinner or others are solutions either.

Bouchard needs to play. 

I would hope Tyler Benson is close.

Sign Larsson, let  Barrie walk. 

Make the tough decision to sign or not sign Nuge. That will be interesting to watch.

Buy out Neal and Koskinen unless they can entice the Kraken to help.

Klef is coming back but how effective will he be?

He has lots to accomplish and even more to figure out.

 

I think Nuge and Barrie are let go. We'll trade for a top 6 F (Reinhart please!) and sign another (Saad). I think Klef is going to become a permanent resident of Robdias island and we'll sign a veteran replacement (Martinez hopefully). I agree with everything you said basically. I want us to get Wennberg for the 3C spot and let McLeod martinate in the 4C spot. Neal will be bought out. Hopefully Koski can be traded.

Lots to do, but he has lots of cap space too. He really has no excuses next season.
