I wouldn't have Nylander in my top 6. Don't think his size is ideal for our forward makeup in this big, bruising Pacific division. I prefer the bigger Tkachuk and Dubois as both play a much more powerful game and we need their size/strength. Nylander is a nifty playmaker and has high skill but we have such a need for big, strong, skilled wingers that I'd drop him based on style.
I mean I'll still be pretty happy if we land Nylander but ideally we get someone bigger and stronger who can power through checking, drive the net, screen the goalie, win board battles. Every time we play LA and ANA our lack of size up front in skill positions is exposed.
