Did you know the Pittsburgh Penguins drafted exactly two players in the 1st round after Sidney Crosby who helped them win Stanley Cups on the ice?
Jordan Staal and Olli Maatta.
Everyone else was either traded for someone to help them, or traded as 1st round picks.
Nobody became anything special. The best player after Maatta is Kasperi Kapanen.
Draft picks are for losers.

Fair it’s a more black and white question that way I suppose. I guess I just think the word overpay automatically triggers people. You yourself obviously wouldn’t see the deal as an “overpay”. Maybe “should they outbid any other offer to acquire Eichel?”
I dunno. Probably overthinking it haha.
