speaking of Dallas, I'm just still in awe of their 2017 draft. Heiskanen was not a difficult pick to nail at #3, but following that up with Oettinger and Robertson is amazing. Coming out of a single draft with a franchise defenseman, a franchise goaltender and a 40+ goals, PPG winger is incredible.
Pretty funny too because they had whiffed on quite a few 1st rounders the years prior. Nichushkin wasn't great for them, Dickinson topped out as a bottom sixer, Gurianov faded quickly, and both Honka and Tufte were complete busts. At least they found Hintz in the second round.
