6 goals in 90 GP ... I just don't get the hype.

I've seen enough Ty Ratties, Robbie Schremps and Sven Baertschis to know that elite scoring at the junior level means jack-all if you can't translate it to the NHL.

I would keep Ferland 10 out of 10, even straight up. Drouin is a project with upside.. he's young, sure sure, but I would keep a multi-dimensional player over someone who needs to be coddled positionally for success.
