Do you think Hamonic will thrive under Peters and become worth the price he was picked up for?

If they win the lottery I say "that's too bad, them's the breaks".
If they don't win they ain't getting Tkachuk.
I think it was worth the price. Look at what happened to Toronto without Hamonic (who they wanted). Edmonton wanted Hamonic too. I think if you draft a guy 12th and he turns into a good shutdown defensive defenceman who can pass well and isn't slow, that's a good draft pick. Calgary essentially just accelerated that pick.
