Ideally, I'd prefer relatively bigger-bodied pure sniper. Someone who can take advantage of Gaudreau's passes and rack up goals, but not get pushed around when teams like Anaheim come calling in the playoffs. I keep hoping Poirier is that guy, but things haven't gone as smoothly for him this year.
While i think he's far from a bust, Ive never been completely sold on the Drouin. In his draft year, he looked like an Oilers youtube special. Lots of dipsy-doodling around pylons in juniors, but you kind of wondered if that would totally translate into the NHL.

Sounds like you're describing Okposo!
