Plus Florida has been losing some games of late, and the gap between the two has shrunk to 6 positions again.

If you ...

a) put any value in the push for young players
b) put any value in Nazem Kadri
c) put any value in the gap narrowing between Florida and Calgary

and see that they seem to be avoiding that pick #11 worst case.

I think the applied LMAO may have been overdone.
Also the NJ pick is tracking to be higher than most would have thought at the start of the year.
