Unless I'm missing someone, that's actually piss-poor quantity compared to most other teams, especially if Rasmus graduates next season. Of course, there's nothing wrong with the quality.
It's a little surprising Treliving didn't take a D, especially considering how he always says you can never have enough of them. Mind you, he also says that about centres & goalies...
Anyhow, Milos Roman seems like a good value pick for a late 4th.

If you look at it another way, they also added Hanifin who is in the same age range as that group. So you have Valimaki, Hanifin, Andersson and Kylington all coming up around the same time with Brodie, Stone and Hamonic still only 28. Add in Kulak at 24 and you have pretty good depth overall. I think that's what they look at - not just prospect depth. They will likely add a couple next at next year's draft so that they don't have prospects coming up around the same time.
