True, I guess I didn't clearify there... I think if we have a chance at Ekblad, we take it. If he's gone, then go with a skilled forward if there is one there, our first pick should be either Ekblad (I think we'll get him at #3) but if he's gone then take one of the skilled forwards. I don't see too many top end defensmen in this draft other than Ekblad but we could still get a Webber in the late rounds.

I just see Ekblad as the next Pronger. He doesn't have the mean streak in him but I think he could and should develop that.
