I had Stortini, McLeod, Crombeen as all being more or less the same player, and McIvor was also in that grouping of 4. More or less bigger guys with minimal offensive abiity, and who'll take a lot of Pim's. I really could use another young defenceman so McIvor was a guy I really thought about taking. But I went with the guy I knew the most about and who I figured had the best chance of sticking with his NHL team next year. The difference between Stortini and McLeod was age and salary, Stortini being younger, and cheaper and being able to score better at the AHL level.
