Esposito is going to be like the Phil Kessel from last year and get picked way later then he should. Sam Gagner will be top 3 if he puts in a solid effort during the World Juniors along with Karl Alzner. Jon Blum and Mike Repik from the Vancouver Giants are poised for top 10 but Repik could be top 5 with a solid world juniors. The first goalie will be Tyson Sexsmith also from the Giants, ever since Slade left the Giants he has vaulted past Rowat and is definatly better then Kurt Mucha.

Alzner had a great pre-tournament pair of games with Team Canada. A solid performance at the World Juniors could solidify him as a top 5 d-man. Needs some defensive highlights to go with his offensive.
