but the big difference between the two is where they were drafted. Nemisz was 25th overall. Brouwer was 214th. you'd better expect a bigger return on value at that number.
To get any NHL caliber player at 214th is unbelievable, let alone a player like Brouwer. However, to get a player like Brouwer out of the late first round would be viewed as a success in my eyes and probably many others.
