Just to add, looking back at the draft where Detroit fell, it was definitely in their favour as Raymond will probably be better than the players picked 1 and 2 that year. Detroit was probably lucky to lose that draft lotto.
Yea they missed McDavid but Eichel was great and got them a good return when he wanted out. Plus Dahlin is looking like he’s gonna be a special player. And they got another 1st overall pick in Power who seems like he’s gonna be decent. Compared to certain teams who fall in every draft (Detroit) or get duds when they do move up (Philly) it’s worked out ok.
