I know how ridiculously early and he's young but he looks like the worst of their 1st overall picks to me by a good margin. Very one dimensional player who scores a flamboyant goal every 5 or 6 games and doesn't backcheck or answer the bell physically the other 80% of the time.
Oh well, looks like they'll get another shot at a top 3 pick this year. Add Seth Jones into the mix and all they need is 4 more dmen, a goalie and a handful of forwards with some sandpaper.

Sooooo.... 10 more first overall picks?
