Honestly, if Edmonton nabs Landeskog/Murray over those two years, they would be a significantly better team. I know would'ves and could'ves are dumb, but when you get to drafting for 3rd or 4th high pick in as many years, you HAVE to grab organizational needs, or at least be willing to move these guys for those needs. RNH and Yakupov are both good, and they both obviously have tons to show, but they need to be shipped out for a stud defenceman or goaltender if Edmonton wants to be a great team, instead of a terrible team with great players.
