Cycle Like the Sedins Mock Draft: The Lowdown
Written by Kevin Sellathamby

If you're wondering, this isn't going to be a full mock draft- this is due to time constraints and the fact that the entry draft is still months away, and the final order isn't locked in. Instead, i'm only planning on doing a mock-up of the first round of the draft. I plan on doing this in three parts- the first part being picks 1-14: the teams that didn't make the playoffs, the second part being picks 15-26, which will be posted after the 2nd round of the playoffs, and the 3rd part will happen after the Stanley Cup finals, where picks 27-30 are done.

As for who's picking- I'm not going to be doing the mock draft myself- instead i'm planning on getting a blogger from each team to act as a representative for each team, and they will make their choice according to whatever prospects are available. It might not be as realistic as it would be if the GMs were drafting- simply because some of the bloggers who will pick might choose someone that they feel might make a bigger impact that whomever the pundits and draft experts are choosing. That and seeing as i'm not really an expert on some teams, it helps getting someone who knows what their team needs. Plus it also adds to the unpredictability of it as well. As of now, I've already got two people to represent two of the teams who are picking from 1-14: the Devils and the Flames. As for who's picking, it's a secret. The first part will be coming soon, so keep an eye out for it.
