You never know what the future holds. Maybe you'll draft the next Brad Richards in the 2nd round.

In general, I don't think it's wise to draft for current needs when most players won't be impact NHLers or key players for a few years after they are drafted.

And to be honest, this team could easily be drafting top 5 for a few seasons and could end up with a centre then.
