2017 NHL Mock Draft, Picks 1-15

In this episode of the ToT-cast, Chris Okrainetz, David Morassutti, Jake Middleton, Omar White and Austin Owens discuss the upcoming 2017 NHL Draft and perform a live mock draft where they take turns going through each pick in the first round. After Chris' awful Gary Bettman impersonation, the guys take turns going through each pick of the first round and none of them know who the other one is selecting. It is all done live like a fantasy draft. The format of our mock draft is simple: each person makes a pick for a team and then provides 1-2 minutes of analysis on the player. Here’s a rundown of when each pick was made: – Picks 1-5: Devils, Flyers, Stars, Avalanche Canucks. (1:08) – Picks 6-10: Golden Knights, Coyotes, Sabres, Red Wings, Panthers. (9:35) – Picks 11-15: Kings, Hurricanes, Jets, Lightning, Islanders. (21:57) – Our thoughts on the first 15 picks where we discuss surprise selections, teams who were tough to pick for and potential trades.
