The bigger pick in that draft actually will end up being 34. If you can hit a home run there (Think Ryan O'Reilly for Colorado in 2009) then you really set yourself up for success.

Look back at past drafts and you see that usually 1 or 2 really good prospects end up going in the top 5 of the second round. That is the important pick.
ah yes, the famous "Oilers screw up because they can't just pick the #1 from Hockey News" pick.
