Did you not see NHLer Konecny set up Sean Couturier in OT for the winning goal against our Leafs just the other day?
So hard to argue with those that wanted and would have taken him at #24 as BPA on the board. Getting NHLers is the goal from the draft, so how are you suggesting it would be a mistake had the Leafs taken him?
Liking Dermott's poise now by me really doesn't have anything to do with that.. However in the big draft picture it looks like Hunter should have taken Sebastian Aho at #34 ahead of Dermott if this is a draft thingy issue with you.
