After losing Tkachuk and Gaudreau I think it makes sense to draft a top end winger with lots of offensive upside. Doesn’t necessarily have to be a solid two way player, we need someone that can get on the scoreboard.
With the way this draft is looking, rest assured-we will be getting a fantastic player with our first this year (hope we keep it). This draft is very forward-heavy in the top round, and everyone in it is awesome. I think we could use a blue-chip D to fill the cupboards, but as they say- BPA.
