I'm not one to get tunnel vision on a certain prospect in the draft, but Stromgren over The Stank, and Ronni over Lane Huston (though they may have been worried about a Re-Fox) is puzzling to me. I liked the Morin pick so perhaps shifts under Conroy.

For me the 2nd is the precise time for home run swings. Because their are always guys in the 2nd that have high end potential, but likely have a flaw that causes them to drop. But picking those guys is how you end up with a Brayden Point, Nikita Kucherov, Adam Fox (3rd I know), etc.
I’m a little torn on their 23 draft but that’s mainly because I’m still scared by the big = good Sutter years. I hope Conroy doesn’t prioritize size over skill
