Probably, but that was through their lense where they already decided they needed to add size and shore up the center position in the organization.

At least this year given where they will be picking, and their positional needs, they should walk away with a Catton/Parekh/Buium....or Iginla. Which would just be really fun (and defensible IMO).
Personally hoping for Parekh or Catton but as long as they're in the top 11/12 or so, and it looks like they will be, they will have a great chance to land a top of the lineup player.
