The Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast is pleased to announce that it's officially draft szn, everybody! And that means it's time for Elan and Brian to comb through the entire Yahoo! default draft rankings– from #1 Connor McDavid to #1009 Kalle Kossila– and then ruthlessly attack them for the most egregious examples of over- and under-rated players found within. Follow along as we name more players in an episode than we're likely to on any regular season episode.

(In an episode where we ranked hockey names, by the way, Kalle Kossila could easily crack the top 100.)

(In an episode where we possessed Grays Sports Almanac, by the way, we'd use our knowledge only for good.
