He is fun to play with Gaudreau who got a boost in the last roster update.
The stupid thing is that there is no longer a screen that replicates the rankings so you can focus on who you may want to scout. The only thing that exists is a summary of who you scouted.

Basically, you cannot view or account for the players outside of a region you have already scouted, and there is no indication (other than your scouting staff's interpretation of 'potential') as to where the players rank in respect to each other.

Pinning a player that my scouts think is great, but is actually slated to go in the 4th round, is useless, as chances are their interpretations of his ceiling and skills are way off.
