To be more specific, what separates Marner and Mangiapane is 162 spots in last years draft. It was a lot easier for us to take a shot at him at that spot then it would be with a higher pick. Why you've compared him to Marner, or tried to suggest would it would take to trade for him is beyond me.
Keller has looked good from what I've seen, but I'd still rather go with Dubois or Tkachuk. You're entitled to your opinion, but I think you'll see the majority of lists and his actual selection sometime after 10th.
In the West in particular, we need to get bigger and stronger.
