I think on another team that Edge could re-emerge quite quickly, just like it did with Bennett.
Oh gosh, I hate that so much. Embrace the strengths of the players you have, don't try and neuter them because you have some foolish ass short term goals.

I like the Parekh pick because it's a homerun swing with massive upside, but I also understand there's a good deal of risk with him that he may bust out. His specific style of play may not transfer to the NHL. If it does? Wow. There's a decent chance it doesn't though.
