Im not implying they are both as bad as one was way worse. However one fell because of mono I believe he was hyped as top 5 pick at one point. Regardless Canucks have worse pick even though both are disappointing picks.
I don't think many leafs fans would consider Liljegren at 17OA with a good chance of making the leafs as a 20 year old, a disappointing pick
Maybe if players with star potential like tkachuk and keller were picked DIRECTLY after it would be different. luckily the next two guys have played a combined 2 NHL games and havent recorded a point. Liljegren is right where he needs to be. its put up time for guys like puljujarvi,juolevi, and nylander especially given the success of the other guys in the top 9 in that draft (Matthews,Laine,Dubois,Tkachuk,Keller and Sergachev)
