That trade was baffling.

I see some good raw skills, and he is 23.
If you draft that in the 5th round, it's a terrific pick. Recent 5th round selections:
2022: Parker Bell
2021: Cole Jordan
2020: Ryan Francis
2019: Josh Nodler
2017: Zach Fischer
2016: Mitchell Mattson
2015: Pavel Karnaukhov
2013: Eric Roy
2012: Ryan Kulkin
2010: Michael Ferland
Had to go back 10 5th round picks to find one that has played a single NHL game (and in the 10 before that, only Greg Moore - 10 whopping NHL games - ever hit the ice).
Okhotiuk - a 2nd rounder - has already played 64 NHL games. If he were a 5th rounder for us, would easily be the 2nd best 5th rounder we have selected in the last 20 years.
