21. Buffalo Sabres (from New York Islanders)
player. 12. Though his official position is center, Eriksson Ek can play both ends nicely. Buffalo will already have Eichel so Eriksson Ek makes sense here.. Center. Farjestad (SHL). Joel Eriksson Ek. 21
22. Washington Capitals
19. Guryanov and Ovechkin are both from Russia plus the Caps should be looking to strengthen their attack.. Right Wing. Togilatti 2 (MHL). Denis Guryanov. 22. player
23. Vancouver Canucks
Paul Bittner. 23. player. 104. Bittner is a big guy who can control the puck when he has to. He could give the Canucks more size and shooting which is exactly what they need.. Left Wing. Portland (WHL)
24. Toronto Maple Leafs (from New York Islanders)
25. Winnigpeg Jets (from St. Louis Blues)
player. 30. Carlsson should be one of the best players available at this point and he could make the Jets a lot bigger than they already are. Winnipeg has a fairly decent defense but adding two key forwards could help them in the future.. Defense. Linkoping (Swe-J20). Gabriel Carlsson. 25
