Maatta I think has limited upside and this organization needs impact players. Janko could become that or perhaps not - but I don't mind taking a big swing with that pick and then following up with Siellof who probably isn't too far off Maatta when it comes to quality of prospect.
I think with a poor draft - it was a sounds approach.
