One dimensional scoring wingers often go a little later than some fans and even some scouts think.
Gauthier ranked as high as top 10-12 last year, went in the 20's. Mantha. Sprong was rated to go in the 1st, fell to the 2nd. Shinkaruk ranked top 10-12 by some went in the 20's.
Some fans think goal scoring wingers are among the most valuable commodities hockey but most teams choose to build up the middle and prioritize centres and dmen over them. I mean the elite ones like Laine and Ovi will obviously go very high but the averages sized ones or ones with question marks on their complete game often fall.
