And you know what that lesson teaches us? That even if all the independent scouting services agree and suggest a consensus, that consensus could in fact be an illusion. We have concrete sources that EDM, CGY and TOR didn't have Yak #1 despite him appearing to be the consensus #1. Teaches us the danger is assuming consensus amongst the scouting services is mirrored by the teams.

How can that lesson be applied to this draft? Well I don't think we should assume all the teams have Tkachuk and Dubois top 5. Therefore one of them may still fall to us.
