Alexander Nikishin would be my choice need to put some higher end defense in the pipeline. While we have Foote his 31 points in Syracuse does not impress me. It takes so much longer for a defenseman to develop the time is now to fill the bucket.
Nikishin isn't even a 2019 eligible draft pick. Foote had a more than fair rookie year in the A. Top 10 in D scoring amongst rookies. 31st amongst all defenders. ES he's in the top 25. We do need to draft another defender but not because Foote doesn't look good because he looked quite good at the end of the year.
