Thanks everyone. Your advice was overwhelmingly in favor of Donovan so I snatched him up with the 54th pick (of 84). I've got three more to go in the next 30 of a 28 team 3 rd draft.

Thus far I'm happy with all of my picks except Jankowski...Stransky is a bit of a reach but with a fairly astute crowd drafting this year I wanted to make sure I didn't miss out on him the way I had on a few others so far.

Jankowski (F) 1st (23)
Koekkoek (D) 2nd (31)
Killorn (F) 2nd (38)
Stransky (F) 2nd (50)
Donovan (D) 2nd (54)

Cheers

Donovan and Killorn could likely play in the NHL if the season resumed tomorrow. I really like Killorn and think he could become an above average 2nd line player one day...he'll do his time on the 3rd line though. Both are by far the most NHL ready of the players you listed. Joe Colborne is probably the best example to use as a time frame reference on how long it'll take Jankowski to make the NHL. Colborne still isn't ready, by the way...

Koekkoek is probably a good 4-5 years away from making the Lightning. Hard to get a good read on Stransky because he plays for arguably the worst team in the WHL.
