Well, considering I don't think Draisaitl amounts to much more than Pavel Brendl it isn't much of a stretch.
Seriously, I don't see the top five from this draft deserving any where near the level of reverence being afforded them. Bennett is the best of the bunch and I don't see him as more than a Doug Gilmour type center. To me, that is a low end first liner to a high end second liner. Everyone else from the draft is likely to fall below that, so Johnny Hockey is well within the possibilities of exceed each and every player from this past draft. I see a top line player in Gaudreau. Can't say I see that from Draisaitl or Horvat.
