We're just under 3 weeks from the NHL draft in Minnesota and TPS is gearing up for the last of our 4 majors. In past years we've done team by team draft previews including who we think that team will take. This year we're going in a different route.
We're starting with our top 30 players (Guy's to follow mine) and we'll also be putting out each of our mock drafts. Plus we're working on some head to head features where we'll compare 2 similar players going by the opinion of those in the hockey world.
So for now here is my top 30 for the 2011 NHL draft.
