Other than XB he got value out of every first.

He hit on Broberg, Holloway and Schaefer and then paired the latter with a first for ekholm.. That's a good five years imo

Late picks are a fluke occurrence. Chia killed it in late rounds, it's rolling dice. Nill knew when he took WJohnston imo. So Holland was decent in 4/5 years. All 4 players were toolsy and raw as well, so it was scouting and projections.

They’re not a fluke occurrence. Most teams get at least one good player out of the later rounds every so often. Who’s the last good player we got outside the first round? Brodziak?

This team is abysmal at drafting which means we consistently have to rely on trades and signings and we aren’t great there either.

Ryan McLeod? Ethan bear had a solid run, desharnais was a good hit for a 7th rounder.

The two best nhl players we drafted in the later rounds recently were Marino and Kesselring and we didn’t manage to sign either of them.

This guy did the right thing trading Mcleod for Savoie. Then went full stupid. Like that saying. If you pet a tiger, expect to get clawed.
