This is how the Islanders ended up with Barzal falling into their lap. Great skater, skilled, and creative but at the time considered a little undersized. As with the teams that passed on Barzal, I suspect that some teams in this draft may regret passing on Catton.

I really really hope Flames don't end up making a stupid decision like that because they're in that zone where one of the top players may slide (likely one player will) and I hope we don't pass.

NHL GM's and scouts simply never learn.
