/r/hockey's 2012 Mock NHL Entry Draft!

Welcome to the 2012 r/hockey Mock NHL Entry Draft. First of all, I'd like to congratulate the LA Kings on their Stanley Cup win, and second of all, as the mock commissioner, I'd like to encourage everyone to boo the real commissioner tomorrow night because it's always hilarious. And since no one likes sitting through all the preamble of the real draft - let alone a fake one - Edmonton, you're on the clock.

Please have your selection in by 9:05 PM, at which point, Columbus will have 5 minutes on the clock. If you've been elected your team's GM and your name isn't up here, please make sure you've sent me a PM. Also, your team will be on the clock until the expected 5 minute interval. If I get Columbus at 9:06, the Habs will still have until 9:15 to get me a selection, so GMs should be able to plan when they're needed.

Anywhere that I've left "GM" was based on the consensus draft rankings care of Derek Zona, found at nhlnumbers.com. GMs whose names are linked didn't make the pick during the draft - their picks were taken from the linked subreddit discussion. If the names aren't linked, they made the pick to me in a message or in the comments below.

And that's the draft! Thanks for all the GMs who participated and everyone who helped build some discussion in your team subreddit threads. Come back tomorrow night and we'll figure out just how much NHL GMs try to live up to Reddit's mock draft!
