Sujet: How did Suzuki go this low?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>A_Habs_fan</b></div><div>Glass, Suzuki and Yamamoto all had similar points in the same amount of CHL games, however they are separated by many spots, this likely comes down to upside and the flags in each of the player's games</div></div>

So, obviously there's reason for the jump between some - being non CHL forwards which was all I was comparing .... but for fun lets look at picks 9-13. 4/5 were CHL forwards. Of those, Suzuki was far and beyond the best player. I don't know how 3 GM's looked at Suzuki and the player they took and said, "hmm, we'll take the other guy".

I'm honestly going to take a look at another NHL draft (2018, 2016) and see how things would have gone if GM's would have stopped overthinking

Sujet: If Bergevin would have drafted BPA in 2018
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>What makes you think Canes wouldn't have tendered an offer sheet for Tkachuk too?

Not to mention that if MTL had picked a winger in 2018, there's a likelihood that Habs wouldn't have drafted Caufield in 2019. Even the Pacioretty trade might've never happened, if for instance Bergevin had wanted to retain Patches to mentor Tkachuk to become that scoring winger and future captain of that team.

There's always so many things to consider in these hindsight posts...</div></div>

They might have. But that's an easy match. Canes OS Tkachuk for 8M? Fine, I'll match. The issue with KK is you don't want to match for 6.1, it just isn't worth it.

Besides, Caufield was still the BPA. That was still the good pick. The issue I have is drafting based on position. That needs to stop.
