People are forgetting what Burke likes as far as his build. Skill in top 6, the bangers in the bottom six. Nylander absolutely fills a huge need on this team, a highly skilled player who is a RH shot and can play RW. If Dubois and Tkatchuk are gone when we draft who are you drafting? Brown? Great size but he is not bringing that physical game. So you pass up the more skilled player with the cannon accurate wrist shot for him? I think not. A defence man? Not nearly as needed as a guy like Nylander is.
