I love how wide open these ratings have been. Seeing high end stock rising and falling, to me, means that there is a ton of really diverse talent that each make a solid case for a top end selection depending on organizational preference. Originally I was praying we found a way to make a couple moves, getting a top 5ish pick as well as two more mid first rounders from combinations of our top 6 selections, almost any of our prospects, and roster players who has obvious value to many teams and could be replaced by younger renditions with higher ceilings by said picks (Backlund, Wideman, Granlund, Hiller, Max R, being a few). Now I'm reminded of the way legends are born in playoffs, and basically the entire roster has shown us wed be losing something that could take years to replace/recreate by senselessly dumping players to move up in the draft. Figuring we were out of the top of the first round for quite a while has me far less interested in prospects than j had been the last two seasons, but now I'm seeing groups of players in different tiers that all fill a need, and projections showing we may often have our choice of a few. Unless our scouts have a guy they feel they absolutely can't afford to miss, or Stevie Y realizes dragging his feet on a Drouin/Cammi swap really set the Bolts back but nowhere near as bad as missing a shot to snag Granlund&Diaz for Hedman would.. I hope we make the picks and trust Brads judgement
