Woo wasn't drafted at 10

I was just talking about later picks in general. Not many guys outside the top5 play in their draft year. Draft plus one is different. Still rare for dmen.

D are the hardest to guess on when ready.
More often they have less opportunity to step right in & develop longer.

Nashville seems to have it down.

I didn’t you’re right, i was letting you know. Geez have a snickers there bud. I made myself seem stupid by stating how i felt about draft year and draft year plus one while simultaneously implying that you didnt make this delineation very well? Hmm, well maybe to you i did.

Yes that's why I said "I'm assuming" - Dont think anything I said was a stretch. Woo going back to Junior is as plausible as Juolevi playing in the NHL this year.
- Brooks_Light

Juolevi would have played this year, JB already said as much. He just got injured.

They have top D fall to them in the draft.
Subban was a trade
Fabbro didn’t step in

Alot of their dmen were drafted late, again im not really talking about rushing guys into the lineup. Kind of a donkey move. Jones is the only giy that fell to them. Im just talking about talent assessment. Fabbro has been in the lineup both at the end of season and playoffs also fyi.

I dont get it, all im talking about is their ability to draft and develop d. Who gives a poop about guys going straight into the lineup? That’s not a realistic expectation of the draft unless you’re picking top 5. That’s one of many reasons top5 picks are so good. Him going to the ncaa has nothing to do woth the fact that the preds have once again found a solid looking dman where many teams seem to fail: the bottom half of the first round and beyond.

It’s a David Poile trademark building D.
He’s had his problems getting over the hump.

Just joking cause so many on here give Brackett credit over Benning as if he’s not responsible for drafting the new core. Which ive pointed out many times, is horsepoop.
