This team could take 2 or 3 yrs to become a playoff team, if not longer. There is lots of time for whoever we draft this yr to be NHL ready by then, in the meantime Wolanin IMO is the better player now & could hold that spot for a while. Guhle as an example has NHL size, is a very good skater & has offensive potential. While Brannstrom might be a better passer, IMO Guhle could be the better all around player. Having said that though, I doubt PD does much if anything inside the top 10.I think it’s an overpayment. The hole created in the system by Brannsteom leaving would take 2-3 years to recover from.
He might not be the next EK we expected, but he’s going to be a solid and dynamic offensive player. And we’ll need that attack so become an elite team.
