It's hard to get excited about a pick with such limited offensive upside. Ideally you like to see your defensive defencemen still put up points in lower leagues.
Not a fan of the pick, but if he does develop, he could turn into a pretty rare player. I just hope he's not a player who ends up spending a ton of time in his own zone because he can't move the puck up the ice.
Beyond that, I don't really see the upside and I prefer to use draft picks on upside.
