I haven't watched all of the players, saw a bit of Fox at the U17s and he had my attention though. Parsons was also obviously good for the Knights in the Mem Cup.
It's just that pretty much every skater we drafted in late rounds - Dube, Fox, Mattson, Phillips, Falkovsky, were all guys I looked into a few weeks prior and would have been happy with at 35 / 54 / 56 / 66 because from the reports they were all a select-few possessed traits I value - hockey sense + skill = upside. Tuulola was the one guy I was iffy on (at 96) but I also recall a few CP members pumping him, plus he's big and shoots right..
In particular,
Mattson at 35 and I would have been content.
Mattson at 126? WHOA.
