Why is the 2013 draft considered so great and is regularly grouped in with the excellent 2011 and 2012 drafts?
Sure Monahan turned into possibly the best player in the draft which was a steal at 6 however the pick was pretty much a no brainer. The other first rounders are still works in progress, finishing 13th and 15th in the prospect rankings, and Kanzig was a complete waste of a 3rd round pick. If Poirier and Klimchuk do one day stick in the NHL then it will have been a good draft but at the moment it looks like a very average one.
