I would be happy with the 5th pick. However, we'll have to forfeit our pick to Boston next season and the Flyers the next season.

SJ won the second lottery which would have jumped the Leafs if Leafs had not won the first lottery.
They also had the best odds before the final ball before SJ hit it.

Stenberg is a Swede and Sundin is a Swede ... hmmmm

Jason Bukala is Sportsnet's expert on NHL prospects, and he says the Leafs should take the Swedish LW prospect Ivar Stenberg. He says McKenna is offensively more dynamic, but Stenberg has a better all round game. Also, Stenberg might be more NHL ready because he's been playing in the Swedish top league, which is high quality competion.

Stenberg is a young Sundin, big and strong on the puck, with a great shot. McKenna hasn't had a great year.

Can't believe with all that bad karma they won the lotto. If they were smart (which they aren't) they should trade down to #3 and take the top puck moving d-man while accumulating an extra draft pick or three. We'll see if any team really covets McKenna or Stenberg.

I know The Sedin twins would be happy to pick Stenberg for Vancouver.

In order for Leafs to pick #3 that trade would need to come from Vancouver not just any team and
Vancouver could get Stenberg without trading their 3rd.

Chase Reid, a right-handed defenseman, is the best-ranked defenseman in the draft. The Leafs could use him.
