Interesting way of looking at it. I don't really agree with it but oh well.
I think they would have signed Wood but that's confirmation that Bleackley wasn't going to happen. I think it's now fair to say that pick was a waste. Wonder where things went wrong with him. He seems like a pretty decent kid so hopefully he has success, either with the Coyotes or the next team that drafts him. IMO, he wasn't treated too well by the Avs.
It'll be interesting to see who gets bumped from the PP if both Gelinas and Boedker get PP time. Comeau is the obvious one. I guess Beachemin might not be on the PP to not wear him out.

Defensive prospects better than Kyle Wood:
Bigras, Zadorov, Meloche, Mironov, Butcher
I think I am okay losing Kyle Wood.
Bleackley is a bigger failure than Hishon and Siemens (that's possible). That's three 1st rd busts drafted in a 4 years span, it hurts badly.
Yeah, I don't see it.
Either every insider has been off all along or Yzerman has changed his mind a bunch of times and still might not know what he wants.
Bigras, Zadorov, and Meloche are clearly better prospects. Wood is probably better than Mironov and Butcher.
Avs probably need to draft a RD this summer in the first two rounds now... I'll start getting my hopes up for McAvoy.
