I really don't think that weighs in at all.
To me: Ekblad is 1 considering our need on D, especially a RD who has all the tools to be a Jones, but maybe not quite. So what? Still a great top pairing guy if all goes well.
Bennett is the second choice. He had more speed than any other forward and backs it up with..gumption. A good playmaker but not great and has a great shot. Needs time to develop his size to fit into his style. That's ok, and I think management would be too.
The others probably don't fit into their game plan the way they would like. Draisaitl & Dal Colle. Not going to discredit them or elaborate on them, but I feel they may not be as high on them to take them at 4.
Take it or leave it. I don't see either taken at 4. Reinhart either.
