The reality is, guys like Bracco Timashov,Dermott ARE very good considering where they were drafted and the production they are putting-up. They are not being overrated at all. In fact, Andrew Neilson is an Alberta boy who looks very good this year for the spot he was taken.

Yes, yes, the Leafs have it all figured out this time. Ignore the last few decades of results, those players were clearly outliers. I'm sure we'll look back in 10 years and marvel at the Stanley Cup core that was drafted by the Leafs over the last three years.
