As for McDavid, I know he's good. But I still am not sold on him and the hype yet. Same with Eichel, but I think he has a better build for the NHL game. we shall see, theres a long way to go yet before that draft.

It's still Ekblad or bust for me. I'm looking at this years draft class and he keeps standing out over the rest to me. Sam Reinhart doesn't look like top tier talent to me where Ekblad does. Not saying Reinhart sucks at all here. I also believe that Same Bennett is coming on at the right time and may keep fighting for that number one spot. Again, only time will tell.
Reinhart is on par or better than Monahan imo. It would be great to have two solid players like that at the top of our centre depth chart.
