Hell, the odds of Celebrini being as good as Draisaitl are actually fairly low. This is my concern in drafting Tij, some fans are having some serious unrealistic expectations and when he doesn't win Art Ross trophy's or Hart trophy's there is going to be disappointment. I still think his offense is going to take a considerable hit playing centre, they can try it though.
Why do you care about others fans expectations or feelings about a hypothetical drafted player?

You aren't responsible for the draft, the player or the team?

You seem to be taking this far too personally that if he gets drafted and isn't successful somehow you will be blamed?
