I didn't know some in here were as scared as you about them picking, so obviously I wasn't referring to you. Also, I think that after the trade deadline, people are finding it easy to lump everything together.
I think people are justifiably suspect of the talent evaluation abilities of this organization. Ryan O'Reilly was a franchise center, Every goalie we acquire being the best goalie outside of NA, Cervenka being a center, Babchuk possibly scoring 50 points for us. They're not exactly hitting any home runs here. Skepticism is the view of experience here.
