Jankowski seemed to be a Weisbrod pick, a guy he viewed and loved and targeted after. Mind you, that's if you go by what Feaster said... and that guy loves to talk.

Well it's the Jankowski pick that worries me. I mean, it's ok to target a guy, but sometimes something else happens and you need to adapt, which I believe is the case with Teravainen. I just hope that if we get a high pick, the drafting group doesn't go into "we're more clever than everyone else" mode and get cute with the pick.
And my order of preference in this draft is open because I don't really care out of the top 4 of MacKinnon, Jones, Drouin, Barkov, I'd prefer a center, but I'd be happy if we got to take any of those guys. Starting at pick 5, I want Lindholm, Monahan, Nurse in that order.
