Unlike past years, the Toronto Maple Leafs have questions circling around them headed into the 2017 NHL Draft.

Last year, it was almost a given that the Toronto Maple Leafs, who owned the first overall pick, would take Auston Matthews. The year before, it was generally believed they would take Mitch Marner.

But after an exciting 2016-17 campaign that saw the Buds make the playoffs, the Leafs own the 17th overall pick. This leads to many more questions surrounding who they take. Luckily for them, there are lots and lots of options surrounding who to take at 17. However, the Leafs won’t be mentioned too much here, as we’ll be going over picks 1-15.

The mock draft begins with an unlikely top three of New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Dallas.
