When a bunch of outlets had him between 5-8, I thought he was the one player in the top-10 you trade up for if you have to, since I didn’t see him getting by Ottawa, under any circumstances.

But if he did somehow get by Ottawa, I had hoped Seattle would take Catton since they probably saw all his games this year and presumably knew how good he is.

We couldn’t get Iggy, we couldn’t get the centre, but we may have the best player of all of them.
I can concur. You were willing to trade the farm to move up a few spots for Parekh!

Glad Calgary didn't trade up and equally glad we got your man at number 9. Now, let's see him become that top 10 player.
