Obviously hind sight is 20/20 all I’m saying is the timing of missing on that draft and to GreenLanterns point the amount of better players we ended up passing on in the pursuit of Jankowski is really quite painful to consider of course after hindsight. That draft, the Baertschi draft the prior year where we landed Gaudreau in the 4th and the Monahan draft the following year after taking Jankowski really delayed growth with the core of our prospects IMO. If we had even one more impact player from those 3 drafts emerge alongside Gaudreau and Monahan I don’t think we have as many good then bad seasons and coaching turn over as we’ve had.
