As somebody who was critical of some picks last year, this year is a solid 9/10.
Gained a lot of faith in Treliving and Button this weekend. A lot of high-upside picks and some big swings with the likes of Kylington. Exactly what I want as a fan.

Dougie Hamilton, Oliver Kylington, Rasmus Andersson.
As close to a home run as you can get.
I give it an A, or a 9.5/10.

9/10
Addressed all areas of need.
Obtaining Hamilton was HUGE, but Kylington might end up being the steal of this draft. Possibly a top 5 talent.
If they acquired a quality young goalie (Eddy Lack, Anton Khudobin) I would say 10/10.
Would have been near impossible to do though.

Went in with 9 picks, but only kept 5 of them.
Normally that wouldn't be a good thing when it comes to rating this draft, but when those lost picks were used to nab a 22 year old potential franchise Dman and also to move up into the late second to take a home run swing on Kylington it gets a high rating from me.
Happy with all the other picks too.

It gets an A, or 9 - 9.5/10 from me as well. Just a fantastic draft.

9/10 for no RW prospects. But holy damn what a blast of a weekend its been. It feels like we won a playoff series.

Filled some huge holes with Hamilton and Kylington.
Would have liked to pick up a RW but I am ecstatic with what we have filled our D corps with!
Thank You Treliving and Button!

Love that they got Hamilton without losing a key roster player and still walked away with two picks that have 1st round upside.
Love, and am relieved, that we didn't leave this draft saying, "Well, they addressed the truculence gap in their system." The team's focus remained taking the player that addresses a positional need and had big upside, regardless of size, nationality, etc.
Love that they didn't spend valuable assets going after a goaltender. I'm comfortable that there's a guy in the system that can be the Flames Cory Crawford - be good enough to let the team in front of him win games.
Can't think of anything that would have been on a wish list made before the draft that wasn't addressed
10/10

First impression.
Solid pick up in Hamilton
Swung for the fences with some of the other picks which I can live with.
Most intrigued by Kylington.

Damn good draft!!! We don't even have to do much if anything in free agency for me to think this off season was a HUGE win!!!
