Not too concerned when you look at the list of graduated talent via previous 5 or so drafts:
Gaudreau
Monahan
Tkachuk
Bennett
Andersson
Jankowski
Mangiapane
Dube, Valimaki and Kylington are soon to follow suit in terms of full time at the NHL; I’m a little surprised at the 31st overall ranking though when you look at our D prospects we are beyond thin in terms of future talent but again it’s easier to stomach when you look at Valimaki, Andersson and Kylington all likely graduated full time NHLers by next year.
