Since defensemen take longer to develop, shouldn't we get some good ones early in the rebuild so they have extra time to develop and then get forwards after?
That's what I've been saying, we can get young skilled forwards in the coming drafts, defensemen take longer so get them early. That being said I will be surprised if Burke doesn't make a move to get that 1st overall to make sure we get him. He is a Burke type player.
