Especially considering that Poirier and Ehlers are also both very good defensively for wingers. You could have Poirier on 1 PK unit and Ehlers on the other, and you'd have the potential for breakaway opportunities all the time.

Ehlers is an excellent playmaker as well as finisher. I'd like to see some of his passes on Monahan's stick in the slot. I'd be inclined to take him if one of the Sams is not still on the board when we pick.
