The 2015 NHL Draft is upon us with the first round set to begin Friday night in Sunrise, Fla. Many of the game's top prospects, including Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel, will be selected, setting the stage for the next generation of stars to hit the ice.
The Phillies opened the draft by selecting high school outfielder Mickey Moniak with the first overall pick.

We attempted to mock the first round, and got exactly four of 23 first round picks right.
