To the extent you are inquiring to my satisfaction as a fan rather than an evaluation of talent, I am pleased.

I like we got the top ranked forward
I like we got the top ranked goalie
I like we picked a giant who rocketed up the rankings this season
I like we used a late round pick - rather than an early pick - taking a guy who had slid
I like we flipped a late third round pick for a cup winning grinder
I like we picked the grinder after we had three good picks in the draft already

I really wanted us to trade up and grab another top 10 pick, which tempers my satisfaction to some extent
