I thought they’d be a lock for the playoffs, so it is strange to see a scenario where they might struggle to hold on.
Getting out of a rebuild these days is a mission.
Ya, very underwhelming record, imagine they had picked 2nd in 2017 and 2019… replace Hughes and Hischier with Kakko and Patrick and they’re totally screwed. Mind you, no idea what their list was so maybe that’s not fair.The margin for error is very small
2016 Entry 12 1 Michael McLeod
2016 Entry 41 2 Nathan Bastian
2017 Entry 1 1 Nico Hischier
2017 Entry 36 2 Jesper Boqvist
2018 Entry 17 1 Ty Smith
2019 Entry 1 1 Jack Hughes
2019 Entry 61 2 Nikita Okhotyuk
2020 Entry 7 1 Alexander Holtz
2020 Entry 18 1 Dawson Mercer
2020 Entry 20 1 Shakir Mukhamadullin
2021 Entry 4 1 Luke Hughes
2021 Entry 29 1 Chase Stillman
2022 Entry 2 1 Simon Nemec
2022 Entry 46 2 Seamus Casey
2023 Entry 58 2 Lenni Hameenaho
2024 Entry 10 1 Anton Silayev
2024 Entry 49 2 Mikhail Yegorov
Seems that they missed out too often, particularly at the beginning, remains to be seen for the last 2-3 drafts
Now there's also pro decisions like signings and trades but yeah, can't dorionize too much.
Only one I see is McLeod over Logan Brown, in hindsight.The margin for error is very small

No idea why you are listing 1OA picks, or picks before the Sens. Kinda pointless.
I’d rather have have Sanderson and Stutzle over Holtz, Mercer and Muk….
