There is never a time when a guy who projects as a middle pairing defensemen with snarl, at his absolute ceiling, is a need over a 40 goal scorer. You can have 12 40 goal scorers in your line-up and trade the 13th for a defensemen who will have a better career than McIlrath could dream of.
That's a very poor argument to try and justify a pick that should not have been made at 10th OA. Especially when you talk about needing a bruiser, which is ridiculous.
Coulda woulda shoulda.
