And there’s so much depth in this draft where our 28th OA pick can potentially be just as good as who we were going to select at 10.

There is?
Based on what I’ve heard /read this draft is not considered too deep. Apparently there is a cliff at about 12 to 15, depending who you listen to.
It would be great for the Flanes to find another pick in that top 10-15 range. If not, I think you’re likely dealing with a typical bottom of the first round pick, which is fine and valuable but no where near a good shot at a sure-fire NHLer let alone an impact one.
