Sujet: Better offseason than expected
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Billy316</b></div><div>Hughes is great overall
But i dont trust him with a 1 round pick
Slafkovsky i love but as #1 OA? even if we traded down to 2nd for a small return , we've gotten good value in the later rounds since Eric Crawford was hired in 2017-18 season.
Reinbacher same thing, if you trade down i think fans feel less robbed passing on better talent.

I mean we passed on 2 Elite Level Superstars for an All Star level class that might become workhorses.
All this relies on these 2 kids being Mature enough not to break here like Kotkanemi and Galchenyuk did.

Its hard to justify unless he lands a player like Lafreniere to make up for it.
Even though i consider AL kind of a let down he's french enough for fans to pretend he's better then he is here.
It'll distract people and when they have to face it they can say we passed on him to get Size and Elite Skill in AL and its Justified.

I dont even want AL here , i want Mcbain like Hughes did but fans wouldnt care as much or give him a pass as easy</div></div>

Hughes isnt making the decisions for the draft picks. Yes he has final say and can give an input since hes the one building a culture but the scouts like Bobrov, Lapointe and co. are the ones making pitch for certain too prospects and the scouting staff decides as a whole after.
