Corey Pronman is insane and mock drafted all 7 rounds (The Athletic)


The Wild selections:
13. Zayne Parekh (D, Saginaw)
45. Luca Marelli (D, Oshawa)
110. Matvey Babenko (RW, Ufa Jr., Russia)
140. Chase Pietila (D, Michigan Tech)
142. Nathan Mayes (D, Spokane)
174. Gabrial Frasca (C, Kingston)

Having just read some stuff on Parekh and knowing what the Wild highly value (hockey sense) – I'm not sure about this one. He apparently has it in spades offensively, but his defense sounds, um, adventuresome.

Eiserman went 19th to the Knights in this mock.

Edit: based on further pieces I've read, Scott Wheeler would think it madness if Parekh fell this far.

Edit again: Craig Button had him go 2nd (!) overall in his mock.
