Considering Button has him ranked top 10 it would be pretty risky to try that strategy again (if they were really that interested in picking him).
It's not too much of a reach to pick Boeser at 15. I think he'll go in the 15-20 range. And, as you say, there are probably a few guys on the board around there who have similar ceilings but aren't committed to the NCAA route, so that would keep the Instant Gratification Brigade happy as the other players would probably make it to the NHL faster.
Thing is, he has an NHL-ready physique already, so he may only need a year or 2 in college to develop.
