So excited to see what Brown and Batherson can do.

Those two are the real wild cards in determining how we fare in the future.

Formenton, Tkachuck, White these players won't ever be elite forwards. But Batherson and Brown have the potential.

A top six of

Tkachuk-Duchene-Stone
Formenton-Brown-Batherson

would be nice.

But I guess we''ll have to see how Melnyk's chequebook is feeling to sign MS and MD to 8 mil deals.

Tkachuk's vision is extremely good, better than Batherson's.

For the creativity part, I think Batherson is highly creative but that's more of a positive towards Batherson than it is a negative towards Tkachuk.

Have to disagree there. Based on everything I've read and have seen from Brady he has great vision. Even his biggest critics in the scouting community recognize he is a good puck distributor and occasionally displays high end vision. Just look at the back hand feed he gave Mark Stone in the intra squad games. From what I've seen he makes plenty of those plays in the slot to a player off to the side, for me that's a pretty good display of vision. Not to mention his ability to protect the puck and draw in defenders, which opens the ice for his teammates. His poise and awareness with the puck is undeniable.

I'm not saying that he has bad vision. It's really really good. He's a playmaker first and it shows. It's just not elite NHL forward level vision.

If Tkachuck had elite level NHL forward vision he would have gone 2nd overall.

As if the Sens going full Budd Dwyer isn't enough to kill my interest in this sport, it's clear that sports networks are intent on cramming John Tavares into every open orifice within sight of my TV for the next half-decade.

Can't wait to see Crawford screaming at them when they come back to the bench.. then again he will likely only start that when the games mean something
