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.

It was more than a few (3?), in games 2,4,6 and 7 he took shifts at center that I noticed, I'm seriously baffled at your dislike of Iginla and any player the flames draft there's going to be unrealistic expectations of him.
I guess you can take solace in knowing he won't last to 9th anyway.
