This draft is insanely deep at center. That or incredibly weak at other spots.

With a list like that it is hard to imagine the Preds NOT taking a center with their first round pick wherever their pick falls in the lottery.

ranking of centers
1) Crosby..............................5'10' 180 lbs
2) Kopitar - #5 overall.............6'2'' 202 lbs
3) Brule - #6 overall................5'10' 175 lbs
4) O'Marra - #10 overall...........6'1' 182 lbs
5) Zagrapan - #12 overall.........6'1'' 183 lbs
6) Hanzal - #13 overall.............6'3' 189 lbs
7) Parent - #16 overall.............6'1'' 182 lbs
8) Cogliano - #18 overall...........5'9" 173 lbs
9) Bergfors - #19 overall...........5'11" 192 lbs
10) Stoa - #28 overall..............6'3" 200 lbs

It seems that Kopitar, Hanzal, and Stoa have the biggest frames, but none seems to be a banging, physical center. [last year's Meidel was in that mold which doesn't look too promising yet].

Besides Crosby, it seems Brule and Cogliano's styles best fit the Preds, but their lack of size gives me some concerns...

Bob has an error. Ryan Parent is a blueliner.

Yeah, I was about to point that out. Not to mention, I think Bergfors is a wing.

Ideally, if we can't get Crosby...Brule and Kopitar are my next choices.

I wouldn't be put off by Brule's size...because he's a very physical player. Hits like a tank, great hands\scoring ability. I think he'd be a perfect fit. In the second tier...I like Jack Skille and Ryan O'Marra. Stoa and Hanzal don't particularly interest me, despite their size.
