Winners and losers of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft

With the 2015 NHL Entry Draft having come to a close, let's take a look at some of the big winners and the big losers over the course of the last two days.

Winners

Garth Snow was busy on Day 1, grabbing two forwards in the first round despite starting the day with no first-round picks. The Islanders’ GM was able to parlay defenseman Griffin Reinhart into Edmonton’s 16th and 33rd pick. With the 16th-overall pick they would go on to select Mathew Barzal, who many expected to be selected by then. The 6’0, 181 lbs centre is a reliable two-way player, with excellent skating and puck-handling abilities.
