Yeah.. I hear ya on Poirier and Klimchuk. But its an easy call imo when 13th overall vs Drouin. The guy does have world class talent. But the reality is, sometimes these guys can't play against the best in the world or with the best for that matter.

I think Poirier still has the body, speed, and skill set but perhaps not the heart it takes to always be pushing the envelope in the tough spots.

And Klimchuk is perhaps the opposite.

But neither are a write off by any means.

But again, my point is simply, you can't say 1 asset is more valuable than an asset in which you don't even know what you have (in terms on draft position and then the player you pick and their development).
