Road Apples NHL mock draft - 2007

Dispensing with the commentary, and ripe for abuse by probably 8:30 EDT tonight, I've thrown my hat in the ring - here is my 1st round mock NHL draft for 2007 in simple list form (top 5 selections / justifications can be found in the 5 previous posts here):

1. Chicago Kyle Turris
2. Philadelphia Jakub Voracek
3. Phoenix Patrick Kane
4. Los Angeles Karl Alzner
5. Washington Alexei Chereponov
6. Edmonton Sam Gagner
7. Columbus James Van Riemsdyk
8. Boston Angelo Esposito
9. St. Louis Lars Eller
10. Florida Keaton Ellerby
11. Carolina Zach Hamill
12. Montreal Mikael Backlund
13. Toronto Logan Couture
14. Colorado Ryan McDonagh
15. Edmonton (from NYI) Tommy Cross
16. Anaheim (from TB) Stefen Legein
17. NY Rangers David Perron
18. Calgary Brandon Sutter
19. Minnesota Dana Tyrell
20. Pittsburgh Brett MacLean
21. Phoenix (from DAL) Luca Cunti
22. Montreal (from SJ) Joakim Andersson
23. Philadelphia (from NAS) Nicholas Petrecki
24. St. Louis (from ATL) Max Pacioretty
25. Vancouver Maxim Mayorov
26. St. Louis (from NJ via SJ) Oscar Moller
27. Detroit Kevin Shattenkirk
28. Washington (from BUF) Colton Gillies
29. Ottawa Jonathon Blum
30. Edmonton (from ANA) Akim Aliu


In the mock draft pool I'm in, we have different values for the top 5: exact slot gets you 2 points, +/- 1 gets you 1 point. From pick 6 through 30, exact slot gets you 3 points, +/- 1 = 2, +/- 2 = 1. We'll see if any of us can crack 10.
