Ottawa: Grigensons

After watching the last two Sens TV videos of the draft prospects, I'm not sure they are interested in Girgensons (or they just know he won't last to them) as they actually show him being interviewed plus one can assume they are talking about him in the first video when mentioning this "warrior, 2nd line" forward. I know it sounds like a silly theory but I don't think they put the prospects in their video who they actually want to grab so as to not tip their hand (such as last year's videos).

the Sens are a notoriously paranoid team so your theory wouldn't surprise me at all

[SeaDawg]

I guess I better post my mock. Note that I'm not very confident in this because I think there are going to be a lot of draft day deals involving picks, so in the end the team draft order is going to considerably change.

It'll be interesting to see who has the most 1st rounders correct!

[dyzfunctioned]

Rough. 23 in 1st and only 3 in right spot

Came close on a few though.

[Mr. Guru]

27/30

and picked 4 teams right. Not bad.

Collberg, Aberg, and Finn I got wrong. Early 2nd is going to be nice. Add Maidens in that group too.

Bored at work and after reading a few others I was inspired to post my own. Just going to keep it simple, no writeups or anything. As with any mock it will be largely wrong, but hey, it's all in fun right?
