A couple of the top guys are injured, and there seems to be a lot of movement in the rankings otherwise. To be expected, I guess, in a weak draft where there aren't that many standouts past the top 3-4...

Not mentioned in this article, but Andrew Ladd is a name we might be hearing a lot come draft time. Unless he rockets up pre-draft, I think he should be slotted to go right around where we will be picking...

Well, so much for that. Andrew Ladd was ranked the top North American skater, in the final CSB rankings.

Guess he did rocket up the draft...

I'm glad to see Lauri Korpikoski climb the rankings. I have heard/read good things about him and I also remember one poster on the Croatian board saying good things about him (he got some tapes from the WJC in Belarus). anyway, it will be interesting to see how the draft goes, I think there could be many surprise picks after the first 3 or 4.
