Not sure how much interest there is as its still very early but here it is:

2011 ISS Top 30

And with the first pick, The Buffalo Sabres select SEAN COUTURIER.

The "Mario Effect" in Pittsburgh is starting to produce talent. #7 Brandon Saad is a Pittsburgh area native. I know a few players from the area are in the league, but I don't think any player has been rated as high as Saad. Pittsburgh has been steadily becoming a "hotbed" for American hockey talent. Which only adds to the talent pool for the NHL.

Boone Jenner...Sounds like a guy who could handle 5 minute shifts.

a lot of the areas that encompass the atlantic divsion are picking up steam... new jersey and the metro ny area have had several players picked in the first round over the past couple of years

Yes but the year Kane was selected number one the NBA also had a Buffalo native selected number one. I bet that's never happened before. At least I don't think it has.

Kitchener always seems to have someone go in the top 10. This year they have 2.

HMM. This is a tough one. I would probably take Nugent-Hopkins at #2 for my Islanders. However I think Garth would probably take the D-MAN. Adam Larsson.

The Isles have a lot of young forwards on the roster & more on the way. The blueliners we have coming are solid but another blue chipper would be great.

I'd be thrilled with the chance to draft Rocco Grimaldi,
but a heck of a lot of things would have to go right betwixt now and then.

Hey Moose, Rocco...Help the judge find his wallet.

Before the season started I was already thinking about THE WIZ trade watch. Followed by Where will MOULSON GO? With Rollie the Goalie for hire. I know it's early but I hope I'm not focusing on the draft come Christmas like the past 3 years. So far so good.
