Anyone feel that Chevy saying they take BPA makes it seem like he's not going to take a centre. Cause we all know that's their biggest need. Sounds a bit to me like he's targeting Sanderson and/or a great winger at 10. Maybe I read a bit too much into his comment....

It means that when he takes a centre he will to claim he was taking BPA. He doesn't want to be accused of drafting for position.

I get that sense as well. Sanderson, Jarvis, Holtz, Raymond and Quinn each play a position where we have tons of depth. Chevy could see any one of them as BPA.

Watch Quinn’s highlights on YouTube and watch the number of easy open net tap in goals Or puck put on his tape in the slot all alone he scores and you will see how dynamic Rossi is. Rossi is also a beast in the weight room. He is not the second coming of Petan. If available Jets should seriously consider him. I would love to see them get Rossi and Jarvis some way some how...
The large majority of Quinn's goals were without Rossi on the ice, especially at even-strength where Quinn was one of the top goal-scorers.

watch Quinn on YouTube I don’t know who set him up but tap in’s and goals open in the slot is most of whT I saw.

He gets a large amount of his goals scoring off the rush. He has decent hands and can score from in tight well. Whether that will translate to the NHL remains to be seen. Goalies in the OHL were pretty putrid last year. Though that is usually the case, they rarely pump out starters. Binnington is the best they've had in a long time.

Well I was half-right here. I picked Zary pretty early in the game, clearly thinking we'd win a round in the playins, trade down twice, add two 3rd round picks, then select Connor.

Had I known we'd lose the playin, I probably would have said a falling Perfetti.
