What do you know about Mantha that might make him the better choice over Zykov ? cause most things I have seen/ read about him make me leary of him.

Mantha has all the tools. Size, skating and goal scoring talent. Yeah I've read he's lacks drive and can look uninvolved but IMO you can look at that as a red flag or simply a young man that hasn't matured yet. I would like to think that you don't score 50 goals in any junior league without being pretty competitive. If he's coachable he could be a steal in this draft like Perry was in 03.
