That's a tough call, they are all great prospects. Really a personal preference thing I guess.

Here's how the top 20 shook down in a prospect draft I was involved in last summer. Schultz had not yet signed in Edmonton.

Yakupov
Tarasenko
Baertschi
Granlund
Hamilton
Galchenyuk
Huberdeau
Kreider
Markstrom
Strome
Grigorenko
Ellis
Etem
Zibanejad
Kuznetsov
Schiefele
Smith
Schultz
Lack
Despres

Not sure about your league format but I like Granlund, dominating set of offensive skiils

100% Granlund for me.

Galchenyuk would be my 2nd choice

Put Huberdeau 3rd

Bartschi sits 4th (love him)

Schultz likes the 5th spot

Tarasenko 6th

Grigorenko 7th

Strome 8th

I don't trust the Russians anymore....no need in selecting them over these other guys...the reward is not worth the risk.

I like your order. Granlund with his recent injuries offer any concern to you? I don't want a band-aid boy.

I would also go for Granlund. He's NHL ready.

I'd go Granlund because he has the highend talent, but more importantly, the supporting cast to pull it off the quickest.

Tarasenko would be second for the same reasons as Granlund with a strong supporting cast.

Huberdeau, I like more than the other two, long-term, but the cast isn't there to make as big an immediate impact that Granlund and Tarasenko may make, so I put him 3rd.

Galy would be at my four spot. As others have said, great options.
