For the Wild, they'll take the Minnesota Mr. Hockey in the first round, then use their next few picks on players who one day may fill out the Houston Aeros roster and then with their late round picks will pick a couple of undersized Europeans (usually one Fin and one Czech) - so in other words they'll draft a handful of potential busts

The Sabres are going to work out a deal with Tampa and move up to the 6th spot and pick Nino Niederreiter.

After the top two there's a lot of question marks. Gormley, Fowler, and Gudbranson seem to be valued as the next three, in some order or other. Tarasenko, Connolly, and Granlund are thought to be top forward talents, tho each has their own problems (Tarasenko's Russian, Connolly has injury questions, and Granlund is small). Jeff Skinner was the top goal scorer in all of juniors this year, but he's also small and not the fleetest of foot. Jack Campbell is the top goalie in the draft.
With all this, I think at least one top talent will fall in the draft, and some lucky team will be ready to snatch him.

One player I like that may fall to the second round is Dylan McIlrath. He's a huge dman in the WHL and one of the best fighters in juniors. He's not lightning fast nor is he projected to be a #1 dman, but he's been called a Milan Lucic on defense. If he's there, I'd love the Bruins to grab him in the 2nd.

Debateable, I'd put my money on Calvin Pickard.
