Some luck but you still have to pick the right guy, and there were still valid non Zayne choices in that area.
Zayne was ranked 8th in Bob's final list.
Guys ranked ahead that went after Zayne (thereby being guys Calgary could have easily taken instead): Silayev & Dickinson. Then you have Helenius who was 9th on Bob's list.
Obviously there is still a lot to play out, but at this stage, Zayne looks like the right pick if that group (though all are strong prospects).
In our own CP voted rankings, Parekh was #6.
I suspect he would be #2 or #3 now.
