Update: The Calgary Flames Select RW Klim Kostin With the 16th Overall Pick in the 2017 NHL Mock Draft.
With the 17th selection of the 2017 SB Nation NHL Mock Draft, the Toronto Maple Leafs are proud to select Eeli Tolvanen from the Sioux City Musketeers of the USHL. Although our sights were focused on adding a centre or defenceman, his scoring upside is simply too impressive to pass on. This 5’10 winger possesses an incredible wrist shot, and he surprisingly fell all the way to #17.
He continually stands out while playing in international tournaments, and he led Finland in scoring as an underage player at last year’s World Juniors.
