I always say this, but I don't know much about prospects, but given what we've heard about #3 in this draft and our needs, would you guys say pulling the trigger for 3rd overall pick for Hamilton a no brainer?
I guess I still can't get over giving up a potential Number #1 D-man for anything other than a potential #1 centre so I'm not sure I'm there. But maybe I over value Center and D, or maybe I'm too optimistic on Douggie.
