The week has finally come, and Bob Mackenize - Bobby Margarita - has emerged from his margarita-making cabin to bring you his annual draft rankings. His rankings are considered by most to be the closest to what will happen on draft night. Not saying they are 100% accurate but he polls NHL scouts to see what they are thinking and then lets the world know.
The Colorado Avalanche has seemed to follow his final rankings quite closely. While I personally don’t like the word “fall” to describe a prospect you draft - it's all subjective, you rank a player, then you draft the player accordingly- some prospects ranked higher in Mackenize’s list have been selected later by the Avalanche.
