The biggest question in this draft is whether the Toronto Maple Leafs will trade Mitch Marner. I believe there's a good chance it could happen, considering the Leafs would likely want a number one pick in return. Although next year's draft is said to be deeper, they might still seek a first-round pick in the 2025 draft.
Assuming no trade for Marner occurs, here are my picks for who I think the Leafs will select this season.
First Round
23 Stian Solberg
Stian is one of the most nasty defencemen in the draft. He is a stay-at-home defenceman with a chip on his shoulder. Stian is known for finishing his hits and sticking to his man until he forces a turnover. He is a no-nonsense dman who takes care of his zone.
Fourth Round
120 Diego Buttazzoni
Diego has great hockey vision and is very smart with the puck. Hard worker in the defensive zone, very good at the draws. He has developed his game on the defensive end.
I will just mention the rest of the players in the next rounds.
Fifth Round
151 Carson Woodall
152 Heikki Ruohonen
158 Jakub Milota
Seventh Round
216 Cole Davis
