Iginla is right near the spot we’re picking. Looking at Bob’s list, you’d be happy with anyone from 7-12. People really don’t want us to take the 10th ranked prospect with the 9th pick? Come on now. That’s even sillier than wanting to take him because he’s an Iginla.
Well I was high on a Gabe Perreault last year and I might be even higher on him now.

Sometimes the inflation is earned/warranted.

Can only speak for myself, others will fall in love with their player, but I won't be disappointed with like 8 of the 10 guys from this top tier.
