The fact that Boston selected Zachary Senishyn with our pick is quite irrelevant IMO. It was a stupid off the board pick by the Bruins in very deep draft. BPAs were clearly Barzal and Connor and it is almost guaranteed the Flames would take Barzal with 1C potential. Also, Kyle Connor would be the most dynamic skater and the 2nd most skilled player in our roster.
Tkachuk - Barzal - X
Gaudreau - Monahan - X
or
Connor - Monahan - X
Gaudreau - X - Tkachuk
look both very good to me, that's why I'm not convinced that trading that pick away was a good idea. 2015 was probably the deepest draft class of the decade.
