Don't you think it's a little suspicious that three teams starving for offense passed on the best offensive option left available in the draft?
Bergervin: Regularly bashed by MTL fans, and clearly picked positionally more than BPA.
Dorion: Regularly bashed by OTT fans, probably picked what he thought was BPA. To be fair some had Tkachuk passing Zadina, but most will agree Zadina's ceiling is higher.
Chayka: Not sure if he's regularly bashed by Yotes fans, but then again he hasn't really been around long enough to leave that kind of impression. What is clear is that he leans heavily on advanced stats. Hayton will surely be a poster boy of this method, either in a positive way, or a negative way. Either way, this was a major positional reach.
Now, Holland is also bashed by Detroit fans, but most will agree that since he traded Brendan Smith last year he's been on a roll.
