We are just over a month away from the NHL Draft and while the Stanley Cup Playoffs are rightfully taking up a lot of the headlines right now, we decided to take this episode to preview the Draft with our very own prospect analyst Chris Peters. The combine just wrapped up and most of the prospects have finished their seasons so lists are starting to be finalized. Chris gave us his thoughts on who could go first overall (hint: he wouldn't take Shane Wright), who have been the big risers and fallers, and also how he views this year's draft class compared to others.

Before the end of the show, they were also joined by projected top ten pick David Jiříček. The defenseman is coming off a strong season with HC Plzeň in Czechia. Frank and Chris asked him about his game, winning a bronze medal at the World Championships, and whether or not he thinks he's ready to jump into the NHL.
