It would make it a bad pick, if you are foregoing better players. I don't know where he lands, but if it is at #15, that means he should be ranked higher than (likely) Chabot/Roy/Kylington/Zboril for D and likely Svechnikov, Merkley, Konecny types for F. Fine if that is where you have him, but I am a little leary to pick him at that spot.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
