The sens are painted in a corner because....well Dorion just doesn't seem to know what he's doing right now. They have a ton of picks and they need some kind of star power to become relevant.

So not so much nice but both teams are in a position to have to do something.
How do you get to that conclusion??

He was tasked with a scorched earth purging and a complete rebuild.

He has 13 picks in THIS draft, a couple great young players on the team already, and all the assets needed to make deals for real bonafide NHL players who arent past their best before date.

I think he has done a remarkable job actually especially when you add in the Melnyk factor, and has his club primed to be something special in 2 or 3 years.
