RD are far more valuable than LW under 6’2”.

David Reinbacher was 8th on Bob Mackenzie’s final 2023 scout poll and Gabe Perreault was 10th. Reinbacher was overdrafted because he is a 6’2” RD and Perreault fell because he’s a 5’10” LW. On talent they are equal as prospects.

What exactly is the metric of "equal as prospects"...if not "value"? Where you seem well aware that the big RHD is far more valuable?
