Getting tired of trying to wade through all the different NHL draft rankings and mock drafts floating around out there?... alright, maybe you're into that sorta stuff, but wouldn't you just like to have one ranking that takes them all into account? We take all the major rankings, a few mock drafts and use some Reaganomics & the Colonel's Secret Recipe to come up with the FHS 2009 Consolidated NHL Draft Rankings:
| Rank | Player | Notes | ||
| 1 | J.Tavares | #1 in every ranking we considered | ||
| 2 | V.Hedman | Dropped to #3 in a few rankings | ||
| 3 | M.Duchene | No lower than 3rd in all rankings | ||
| 4 | E.Kane | Consensus top 5 pick | ||
| 5 | M.Paajarvi-Svensson | Ranked anywhere from 4 to 7 | ||
| 6 | B.Schenn | 6th in rankings but talk is that he'll go in the top 5 | ||
| 7 | J.Cowen | THN has him 4th but CS has him as 9th best in NA | ||
| 8 | J.Schroeder | Another one with a wide range of opinions | ||
| 9 | O.Ekman-Larsson | Goes higher in the mocks but not in most top 10 rankings | ||
| 10 | D.Kulikov | Only Russian in top 30 | ||
| 11 | N.Kadri | Anywhere from 8th to low 20s | ||
| 12 | S.Glennie | Consensus top 20 pick | ||
| 13 | J.Josefson | Shows better in rankings than mocks | ||
| 14 | J.Moore | CS has him as 6th best in NA | ||
| 15 | R.Ellis | CS has him as 16th best in NA | ||
| 16 | S.Despres | Top 10 for some, ISS has him at 30 | ||
| 17 | Z.Kassian | Consensus top 20 pick | ||
| 18 | D.Rundblad | Wide range, THN has him in top 10 | ||
| 19 | P.Holland | Did not impress at the scouting combine | ||
| 20 | L.Leblanc | Ranked as high as 12th by ISS | ||
| 21 | L.Ferraro | Would have been higher if not for THN ranking him 28th | ||
| 22 | C.Ashton | Could go anywhere from top 20 to 2nd round | ||
| 23 | C.Kreider | Climbing in a lot of people's eyes | ||
| 24 | K.Palmieri | Very impressive at scouting combine | ||
| 25 | D.Shore | Borderline 1st rounder | ||
| 26 | N.Leddy | Looks to be in 20 to 30 range | ||
| 27 | S.Elliott | No higher than 23rd in any ranking | ||
| 28 | C.de Haan | Could miss out as 1st round is heavy with O-minded dmen | ||
| 29 | J.Morin | Could go anywhere from low 20s to mid-2nd round | ||
| 30 | J.Caron |
The epitome of borderline 1st rounder |
