I’m a bit biased as a Sharks fan but Eklund only at #11 seems wild. He had 45 points in 80 games in his rookie season with basically zero help. In his last 14 games of the season he had 15 points. I feel like other people are going to be mindblown when this kid blows up soon but it’s quite easy to see how much he stands out on that Sharks roster.

the fact he had zero help is not a negative he got tons of ice time put a 4th liner on the 1st line give them powerplay time with no help and theyll get 40 points ... ... he is not that good yet... he is border line 3rd line forward right now for a half decent team

@@jasonanderson5034 You're the one who is totally delusional. You sound like an envious 16 year old kid. Everyone in hockey circles thinks Mailloux will definitely make it to the show. Not sure if he's Top 15 of 2021 draft but anyone who believes he shouldn't be ranked in Top 32 doesn't knows much about hockey. He had a great year in the AHL and he is trending in a very positive manner. As for personality issues, he has been a model person since his incident which happened when he was still a 17 year old kid. By all accounts, Mailloux is a decent guy and very well liked by his teammates. He has done everything that was asked of him and its weird to hear another kid like yourself (you are obviously quite young based on your inane remark) criticize a guy's personality when he has done everything in his power to rehabilitate himself as well as possible. At what point do you and the other holier than-thou types stop throwing rocks at this guy? I'm 100% certain that you have already made all sorts of mistakes in your life so unless you can prove you're perfect you should zip it as far Mailloux is concerned. You're probably another frustrated Maple Laff fan.

Idk how mailloux isn't in this list.

The Stars nack for drafing gems is wild. Johnston, Stankoven, Robertson and Oettinger all core pieces that usualy takes being a lottery team to get.

It always amazes me when you look at an elite team and you can point to one draft where they just nailed it out of the park. Without the 2021 draft, Dallas is probably still a playoff team, but they aren’t bonafide cup contenders. Hell of a year for their scouts.

He will be a very dependable nhl’r this year hopefully for the sabres who drafted him but the logjam of nhl ready prospects in buffalo may complicate things. Buffalos prospect pool not only includes 5 nhl ready first rounders but several guys that were second and later round players who have developed way higher than their draft position.
