I know we lacking scoring but I would build from the backend out first.

No! but i do have a fundamental problem with picking a defender in the top ten in this draft.
This draft has a pile of defenders through the first into the second round. Personally think a guy like Rudolph isnt really much of a step down from the guys mostly listed in the top ten.
Shcherbakov is super intriguing. I think Gustafsson is being a little underrated, love this guys skill set, add in an incredible skater like Mcbeath. Guys like Lin, Villeneuve. Some of them are low first second round rankings.
I do think some if the forwards are top ten worthy without question. Lawrence, Malhotra,Bjork, mckenna, stenberg. Even a guy like Suvanto who’s consistently ranked in the teens is super interesting. 6.3 good skater, 200 foot player, loves barkovs game. Could he become a borderline forst line center? I think so! Maybe not flashy but effective.
