I’m more optimistic on Morin though.
I know it’s hindsight, but plenty of people were clamoring for Hutson in 22 and Stankoven in 21.
Production models aren’t everything but according to Bader’s model here is the current likelihood for each player becoming a star and an NHL player:
Ronni: 1%, 13%
Stromgren: 1%, 24%
Hutson: 74%, 81%
Stankoven: 38%, 89%
Really wish this mgmt team would stop prioritizing size. You can buy and trade for size.

I don't think Roni was a size play...
Also with Bader, is there any evidence that his model actually works? Does he have a 2018 draft list we could peruse? His methods have always left me wanting more and his comps are so varied that I'm always wondering if this is just a labor intensive tribute to randomness.
