I'm not sure you can call finishing last, and getting lotteried by Edmonton for McDavid "lucky". And Eichel's a good player but in a redraft I'm not sure he goes top 3. Marner, Rantanen, Kaprizov probably go ahead. Aho and Connor aren't far behind either.
Eichel trade situation went on for months. Maybe 4 teams in the end, but way more in the beginning. No way only 4 teams were interested. Asking price and the surgery options had teams bow out early.

That was a bad deal from day one.
