If we don't end up dead last this year, I see Burke moving heaven and earth to get his hands on Ekblad before Edmonton does. There are sexier picks for sure but stud dmen like he is projected to be are far and few between. He is a Burke type player IMO, big, smart and is physical enough to be considered truculent! :-)
We don't want Edmonton to get him and have to play against him for the next 15 years.
