It has?
You're going to have to explain that one. If you mean drafting small players who score at the junior level, then mission accomplished. If you mean drafting players with an NHL future, then the jury is still out with things not looking so good. Seriously, of the 2017 draft class two of the five players drafted were not offered contracts and one more looks like he won't turn into anything. For 2018, two of five are not going to earn contracts. That's a pretty crap batting average. The 2019 draft class isn't looking much better. Fortunately they caught a break with Wolf in the 7th round, or we would be looking at that class as another big WTF moment.
