3 years into a rebuild and no elite forwards isn't great (unless someone like Gridin can become that). Verhoeff would be a good add but you can't win games entirely from the back end.
They'd have a lot of work to do up front in 2027.

I might have misread and I don't want to speak for TBull, but I thought it was a comment more about prioritizing a center over a defenseman because we need centers more in the system than another defenseman. Right now, it looks like Verhoeff is the BPA over any centers according to most rankings, but of course that is subject to change.
