Dont know how his consistency is but if he has a good motor he can easily be a good 2nd line winger.

At worst looks like a solid 4tf liner if not everything pans put for him. Looks pretty decent.

I like the 2022 2nd as well. Wouldn't have minded some more bullets in the chamber for this draft though.

Reason being is that with everything so unknown , there's bound to be steals late into the draft.

Like wheres the OHL top guys? Where's the WHL late risers? What about the AJHL and BCHL?

If there's any year where one could say duplicate a Henrik Zetterburg pick, its this draft.
I agree to a point, but I'm actually happier to see us stock up for the 2022 Draft, rather than this year's. I do have faith that our scouts can dig up some gems this year, but as a guy that studies the draft pretty hard every year (not claiming to be a pro or anything), there's much less substance in 2021. I know that there's a lot less to go on this year because of COVID, but the vast majority of available prospects have played somewhere, albeit often sparingly-but that could mean more mistakes, too. Next year, we'll know who we're drafting.
