So there was another hall of fame Canadian 5'11 playmaking center with a name resembling a type of food.

Just saying.

I think one of the problems with Robertsson is apparently the mechanics of his shooting. He takes too large of a backswing when shooting. He won't have time to take that in NHL. Plus upside. He did have a good u18s.

I think upside is the main thing. High floor but low ceiling.

Do either of the forwards we took in 2nd round have a scouting report similar to sebastian aho or debrinkat's ?

If they look like upside is Arturi lekonen then I'm less than impressed

Riley Kidney, to me, is kind of similar to a David Krejci-like type of talent. Not great speed, but great IQ and playmaking skill. Not to say that he'll have a similar type of career, that is, but something in that vein.

Kapanen is a little more in the Lehkonen mode, though. A projectable middle-six type. He doesn't have the skating or skill of Kasperi, but makes up for it with effort, work ethic, two-way ability and has some good goal scoring ability. His upside is probably something like a Jakob Silfverberg type, imo.
