    Top four easy. J. Hughes, Kakko, Makar, Q. Hughes. Fifth more difficult. Candidates: Steel, Comtois, Zadina, Gurianov, Kravtsov. Unfortunately Gusev does not qualify (too old at 27). I have fifth pick and I am leaning Steel could be 1st or 2nd line center. He is 2nd PP lock with 1st PP upside.

    If your league has hits, it's Comtois.

    Are guys like Brannstrom, Glass, or Kyrou eligible?

    No hits, just points and plus/minus. So Brannstrom on Ottawa would probably be big minus liability. I thought about Glass but hard to see him getting power play time on Vegas since they are stacked already on PP1 and PP2. Similar story for Kyrou on St Louis I think.

    Makes sense. You're going to want to look at Terry (if he counts), Formenton, Necas, Kravstov, or Suzuki/Poehling if one makes the Habs.

    Elvis.
    CMB sure has lost some firepower, but they're still a defensively sound team. Elvis' talent and opportunity seem to line up really nicely imo. Not saying it's guaranteed, but I like the likelihood of getting a young starter right off the bat here.
