You could be right, but an argument could be made to the contrary-Lind is bigger, has more PIMs, scored more points (17 more than the next leading scorer on the team, though there were many injuries), and put up a better playoff performance in his draft year than Dube. There were a few that questioned Dube's hockey sense as well.
Please don't get me wrong-I think Dube was a great pick-up, and our scouts got it right, and I don't necessarily think that Lind will be a better NHLer.
