North American Central Scouting Releases Top 130 for 2012 Draft

Mark Seidel, the Director of Scouting for North American Central Scouting, was kind enough to share the cumulative rankings for the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. We thought we would be kind enough to do the same for our gracious and loyal readership.

We all know that Nail Yakupov may be one of the finest talents to come out of the draft in a number of years, slated to make the NHL as soon as next season. After that, we see Mikael Grigorenko followed by the wounded Ryan Murray and Alex Galyenchuk.

While none of these players hold any fantasy hockey value this season they sure will be valuable to know come next year. Without any further rambling, here are your top 130 for next year’s draft.
