I don't know, just doesn't seem to have as much substance as last year, nor as much flash & dash as 2002 or 2001.
Obviously there are great players. Ovechkin could be a top 3 draft pick in any draft year. Guys like Olezs and Barker are probobly top 10 guys most years. But the draft, in my mind, seems to be lacking two things:
#1 - Big-time top 10 talent after the first 3 or 4 guys
And,
#2 - Depth beyond the #15 spot (or so)
I'm not a professional scout, and perhaps some scouts think this draft is underrated and I've got it all wrong. But this upcoming draft, outside of Ovechkin and a couple others, just doesn't get me all that excited. Am I alone on this one?
