Gaudreau graduates and Baertschi is moved....so instead of moving up to #3 Granlund is going to be 6 or 7 or maybe even 8th.

This year made me think Granlund is an AHL/NHL tweener. He looked meh when he was with the Flames. Therefore his upside dropped in my opinion while Hickey's rose. Basically a player's development isn't linear.
