I think its a much better draft than some people are giving it credit for. I've been arguing that for a while. The types of players I'm reading about in the 9-20 range would go top 10 some years. The types of players I'm reading about in the 4-8 range would be top 3-5 picks in some years.

That's my take anyways just from following various drafts.

For example I think the 3 top d-men this year are all significantly better prospects than Hadyn Fleury who went 7th overall I believe one year? I think Tkachuk/Dubois would've challenged for top 3 in some of the weaker drafts in the past 5 years.
