I'm not going to quibble over how the vote falls. If the league feels it's unfair I will accept that without any argument. I would note though that Robertson is not Toronto hype. He was rated the 25th best prospect in the NHL by THN. He was rated 28th in Wheeler's most recent list that included this year's draftees. Dobber rates him an 8.5 on fantasy upside with a 9.5 on NHL certainty, as an Elite goal-scorer winger with all-star potential.
His NHLe puts him in between a 1st and 2nd liner.
Given the randomness of the sim I'm taking the risk of that pick being high, and then putting conditions on top of that to give Detroit some protection.
But my point is Robertson is a legit blue chipper. He's certainly not a tweener.
