His role had completely changed by the time the draft actually happened
So how can we say a guy who didn’t even watch the prospect we took fourth overall ran the entire draft? He never scouted Sam Bennett but forced the GM to take Hunter Smith? Seems like a massive reach
I also don’t see how (outside of Smith) any of the picks are particularly “Burke” style picks. A goalie out of the Q in the early second round actually seems like the opposite of Burke philosophy to me
